Ranger Weapons
 

Got a friend starting up and can't decide which weapons to get him.

Should I get x2 Wurmslayers, or a Woodsman's Staff? Or something else entirely?

He'll be in our group, so DPS is ideal.

Woodsman's staff is supposed to be the most dps once the damage cap is gone.

a SwiftBlade is king at lower lvls for rangers. Ide say after 30s the woodsman.

The cap on DMG pre-20 is ~28. So 25/40 weapons will waste a lot of damage in delay. Opt for a CSS, snare whip, jade mace, or lammies instead. Once he's over 20, woodsman staff whenever he's not trying to skill up his weapon skills.

Get a silver swiftblade till 20. After that go woodsman's staff or a fast MH with a wurmslayer OH. Jade mace comes to mind.
