so my ranger isnt my main, so i dont include bolas as a skill

i want to do this

light heal
sharp shot
long shot
double shot (his melee is pretty high)

i would go with explosive but after testing it.... nah

now im 100% sure i'll go with those 4, but i want an extra skill

theres steady aim, sharpen weps and rapid shot (can be useful sometimes)

theres always bolas as an option maybe it higher lvl, but i want him lvling only and my main is for bosses


any opinions?

Do you have the points for entangle? Seems like a good solo-leveling skill. Rapid shot becomes obsolete with haste lixes (assuming you use these), so maybe sharpen weapons for more dps.

If you have decent dex, you can point points into Barbed shot. It deals a normal damage attck plus decent damage per tic.

ah right forgot about hastes since he isnt very high for hastes now, ty for reminding me

as for entangle, thats not the skill for me, as for sharpen its also an option but how useful is that on dex build

as for the comment above me, well i'll wait for more opinions about barbed, good idea tho , didnt think about that as an extra

I use sharpen weps and steady aim both maxed. I have more dex than strength but still consider myself a dps ranger.

Light heal isn't a DPS skill.
Therefore, you are not full DPS.

Light heal is DPS Skill. It Heals you, thuus allowing you to get take more hits from the mobs you fight. allowing you to get more damage on the mob without dying. Therefore, DPS.

Dps just to point out is damage per second
light heal making the battle longer doesn't increase damage per second.
By increasing the time you actually lower dps o_O
It is however the best skill a ranger has IMO :P
