Are Rangers still hated in Velious era?

Thurg chain for ranger is pretty shit tbh.

But its better than nothing.

The tunic seems like the only decent piece in my eyes. But its all relative. Ive put some skyshrine armor on a lvl 6 ranger a while back..

lvl 46 is big for rangers, Epics, Sky gear, and helm of the tracker all equipable.

Whether or not I get my epic depends on how much the MQ costs and/or how often the key mobs are camped. Venril Sathir is one mob I need IIRC.

20k for the MQ, 5k for the jade reaver, the rest is a lot of running around and patience.

25k? That's it? That's not too bad. Must not be a lot of Rangers on the server.

I wonder what the ratio of classes is on P99, actually.

VS fight is pretty easy and always drops 2 stones. I'd offer to find VSR up for a guild. In exchange for your service they provide a kill force and get to keep one of the stones.

Contact guilds and see if anyone is interested in cutting such a deal. It might be less work than farming 20k.

Edit: he isn't particularly hard to find up either.

If you're dead set on Thurg and have the faction I can probably MQ you some pro bono.

I'll see what I can do. I'm not going to worry about the Epic until I'm strong enough to solo at least the Teir-Dal Reavers that spawn with Dark Elf Corrupter. That's probably 60, which I'm fine with doing. Save up my money grinding towards 60, farm as much of the mats as I can for Thurg armor, then work on the Epic.

I'm still a bit away from doing Thurg Mq, Level 36 and still in High Keep, but I'm heading for Great Divide at 39 and binding at Thurg, so by then I'll be able to start working on faction.

If you can get a 60 Druid to port you to East Karana they will probably help you with the fight. Chances are they've done the fight before as the Druid and ranger epic quests share a lot of overlap.

I'd suggest joining a guild ad 46 for a ranger; getting swiftwind within a week is a realistic expectation.

[Jimjam]

Fair enough. Send me a message if you need chain hands or wrists … I won't provide the gems for wrists, but I can probably supply for hands. … I'd recommend not using melee wrist gems on thurg gear though. They are kinda pricey.

Is it possible to MQ the entire Coldain Prayer Shawl questline, or do I need to raise the crafting skills myself?

How much of a difference does the AC debuff on Flamelick make at higher levels? The dot is inconsequential at this point, but I feel like I'm scoring a lot more hits when Flamelick is applied, adding up to more damage overall than Stinging Swarm would do.

An imperceptible amount. Flame lick is much better as a tank's snap aggro device than a damage enhancer.
