The best ranger weapons range from 0.71 to 0.78

Monk ratios go up to 0.83

Rangers for now have lower weapon skill caps and offensive skill cap.

Kick vs flying kick?


If I’m missing something please enlighten me (not being sarcastic here). If you’re quoting raid parses with full disc burn that’s fine but for raw sustained melee I’m just not connecting the dots. My parsing experiences do not and have never reflected what you’re implying and the raw nuts and bolts do not add up. Monks have superior weapon ratios at most all levels of gameplay. Endgame velious narrows that gap but it still exists and their skill caps are higher.

With chardok 2.0, they also get their own separate and improved tables at 55 and 60, higher minimums on flying kicks, and triple attack at 60.

I’m always open to having my mind changed, so please explain. So not counting a long refresh cool down disc, or melee with a BFG and finite supply of arrows you see rangers routinely beat out monks in straight melee dps?
