Human ranger starting stats

[Bleui]

I'm a EQ newb so sorry if these types of posts are repetitive.

Should I go full STR? Full DEX? half and half? I've heard if you wanna be any good with a bow DEX is very important. And even tho if bows are shit, I wanna be able to still use them to an extent being a ranger in all.

:confused:

Put all points in lube IMO, gonna need all you can get

[Bleui]

My body is ready.

[Tombom]

go full stam so you can have more hp to track longer until you finally die to a solo bard.

I would ask in the blue server forums. These guys are all hardcore bullshitting you.

[Softcore PK]

Lol'd

[Bleui]

aren't the returns from sta very poor? or are you guys still messing with me...?

:confused:

[Danger]

sta. dew it.

[Nune]

returns arent great, that is corect. but pvp is all about who is standing in the end of the battle, the guy with more hp has a better chance from the get. Honestly, not to bullshit you, Rangers are pretty piss poor once levels start going up, the only Ranger i remember killing anyone was one named Belaggio back on TZ who was a Pandemonium twink, and honestly the buffs killed you, not that bitch. Never trust someone named after a hotel <3 ahhhh TZ those were the days pals.

tl;dr Sta doesnt have great returns but will favor you more than anything else you can put points into. Maybe Dex if youre gonna be bow'n'arrowing hardcore like

[LittleSorcerer7]

I would do 100% into dexterity. Stamina is cool but trust me on this one.

STA STR DEX AGI will all be maxed eventually with Velious era gear. Put all your points into your casting stat for any hybrid really. Id rather have 200 more mana for another heal than 50 hps.

:confused:

The formula for warriors is 1 sta = lvl/10 hp, or 1sta = 5hp at level 50. I believe it's 1=4.5 for paladins and shadowknights, so I'd guess it's 1=4 for rangers. That's not too bad, and stamina returns are only crap for casters. I haven't looked into what weird custom changes this server is making, so I can't say whether there's some unclassic value in agi or dex or something like on vztz, but if not, there's hardly anything else to spend your points on for a ranger, especially a human where your natural strength should be high enough to not get encumbered by gear alone like a wood elf might.

the less you think about your starting stats the healthier a person you will be

go int/cha and when you get stomped, /tell them that you thought you were rolling enc. you must like being an underdog if youre rolling human ranger so who cares about marginally shittier stats

[Chronoburn]

STA STR DEX AGI will all be maxed eventually with Velious era gear

So in 2 years.

[Jadian]

Yeah you guys do realize that p99 has probably <20 of the original people that started on it right?
