Starting a Ranger... I know..

[Huddaan]

I plan on making a Ranger because I want to melee and I would like to have a few spells to play around with. This is how I'm planning to equip him, what do you think? I'm not rich, but I have some plat to play around with.

Ears: - forest loops
Fingers: - Fire Emerald Platinum Rings
Neck: - Chrysoberyl Talisman??
Head - Executioners Hood or Crested Helm
Face - Sarnak Hide Mask or Platinum Ruby Veil
Chest - Brigandine Tunic or Mithril Breastplate
Arms - Mithril Vambraces
Back - Werewolf Skin Cloak
Waist - Thick Banded Belt
Shoulders - Crested Spaulders
Wrists - Hero Bracers, Runed Mith Bracers
Legs - Mithril Greaves or Sebilite Scale Legs
Hands - Iksar Scaled Gloves
Feet - Dwarven Work Boots
Primary - iksar berserker club??
Secondary - Sword of Skyfire/Green Jade Broadsword??
Range - Runed Oak Bow

I plan on spending about 5 to 7k for weapons, just dont know what yet. I would love to see some suggestions. All I have found are older posts with dated info.

And yeah yeah.. It is a Ranger...

There is no 7 str 7 wis necklas ;P. That's platinum ruby veil you are thinking of, which is a mask.

there's a dex agi one or some crap maybe that you weird ranger folk might enjoy.

Rangers are fine. Get a silver swiftblade, when you have dual wield and double attack get an icy blade and something else.

Yup, you got me there lol.

I also have a Swift Blade till I get dual wield.

Theres a fuck ton of awesome ranger items. Seen someone selling that careless lightning ranger only dagger and also a 1 handed blunt with a 75 DD proc at 15. Both of them had a really shitty ratio (like 3 dmg 20 delay) but both had 75 DD procs at 15. Probably not the best DPS but fun.

Not really sure if I should be doing much procing... I would rather the tank take most the beating, that is if all the Ranger haters let me in their group [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

wow... in a year I'll be able to get ONE of these items!

Is that you Pudaan?

In any case- Forest Loops for the ears. If you PL/xp in the giant fort, you're almost guaranteed to get a couple.

I think the Swiftblade is the best thing you can get for lvl 10-19 and it's decent enough for 1-9. I'd grab that and a pair of cheap 2handers for skilling - Sword of Skyfire, Iksar Berserker Club, and one of the RNG only piercers.
