Celtic Heroes

•Can solo most 6* without pots/idols/help
•Is both healer and dps
•No energy/health problems (atleast I don't have the problems)
•Cheapest class

Read the whole thread before posting.

•Healing is more useful done by druids - so we don't need to be able to heal
•I rather be able to actually use this to my advantage but frankly the skills aren't goo enough
• I'd prefer it cost as much as other classes in exchange for more from the class

You want to specialize in one area? Pick a different class.

I think all rangers can agree that the thing that first attracted them to be rangers was being able to wield a bow.

Its a shame this class isn't dps.

You should really go away and stop talking about rangers. If you can't handle one then dont bad mouth it.. Derp

We'll if you are okay with a weak class sure but we need more rangers so we have to make it more attractive so more people will want one.

Rangers arent weak

And rangers arent for everyone. You dont need to advertise it, they need to choose themselves.

RangedDPS- level up some before you talk about constantly taking on 6*s without plat. Only 6*s at that level you can solo would be the catas and perhaps broadpaw/shimmerspell. The Boar bosses on up would execute you after a couple minutes even with bolas.

We are versatile class- but all the other classes can do what we do, and do it better. The only things that make us stand out is that we can partially 'fill in' for other classes (imperfectly), and that we use bows. Period.

Rangers can attack from the furthest range of any class which makes avoiding aoes and adds easier (and makes them very important for necromancer)
Rangers can heal, bolas, buff group dmg, slow boss attacks
Rangers have damage skills and a self buff that boosts damage and attack.
Rangers are 3rd best dps and can sometimes compete for kills with top tier gear.

In summary, rangers are a versatile class. Thats what ive experienced anyway. I use my ranger more than any other class. Its the class that is always needed at a fight. And if your not needed you can switch to full dps and still deal decent damage. My warrior on the other hand has only one use - tanking. Dps is probably the worst of all classes. But i enjoy tanking which is why i play warrior. Choose a class you enjoy playing.

-true
- true- other classes do this better though
- yes, but all are nerfed badly
-... 3rd best? on occasion. But for your average situation its more like Rogue, Mage, Warrior, Druid, Ranger. Esp if the druid is dps or even hybrid.

That said I am not a warrior expert, just my general experiences in v4 during training and bossing.

Well rangers need to be for everyone so the low ranger populated worlds can kill necro. Like I said, rangers are not weak but their not cool. igaf if you like your ranger, we need rangers, a lot of people apparently think,"Rangers are not their class" but rogues, warriors, mages, and (okay not mages), and druids are. It is not their class because the only thing we can do is not die as fast. Rangers aren't fun.


All the classes have their cool skills and builds that make your life interesting but bolas and light heal is so two updates ago.

Hawkeye, you must have some amazing build/equipment that makes you think rangers don't need tweaking or fixing.

I have a 140 ranger right now, and I'm sticking through it because there's a shortage on my world, DL is easier to get due to low ranger numbers, but the skills suck.

When leveling on lix, the lack of good skills shines forth. I use sharpshot (royal ring + anc. beastbone gloves) which hits bout the same as auto (when it hits) or sometimes a couple hundred above if lucky. Steady aim, sharpen weapons, light heal and the rest in rapid because I have left over points due to no other skill being as useful at this level.

Skill break-down of suckiness at higher levels:

Longshot - Good for a ONE time use on 85% of the mobs. Granted it gives a one time hard hit that pins the target and allows one more auto, but that's about it. Unless you're fighting a ranged mob where you can hit twice, or use bolas (but who does that leveling?) Valid use while bossing, as you're typically not getting hit and can stand at the proper distance.

Barbed - Kinda slow cast, only really awesome with over-maxed skill.

Def Spikes - Sucks balls. Only way it is halfway decent is over maxed AND with assassin lure.

Entangle - Meh.

Explosive Arrow - Damage is mediocre for the amount of energy that it uses, especially when over-maxed.

Conceal - lol

Camouflage - Helpful when leveling around other mobs... but duration sucks and is a waste of DPS

Double Shot - Good for a guaranteed hit, on haste it doesn't make much difference due to cast time.

Bolas - Higher energy, missed a bit, slowish cast, and who seriously uses when leveling and not bossing?

At my level, I don't find many skills useful when lix leveling. I have Sharp Shot at 35/30 but a lot of the time, I hardly use it due to the fact it misses a LOT and hits the same as an auto or a little bit above. It also takes up an auto when on haste lix. I find myself more of an auto ranger at this point in the game due to the lack of "good" skills.

People say that rangers are needed on end game bosses, that's great... but those levels in between need to give potential rangers something to enjoy and actually stick with. Other classes have a lot more fun factor to them with skills that are actually good and more appealing.
