Is Tigeraptor armor worth the price for a Ranger?

[Jimjam]

It is ‘kunark chain’ which means it shows up as plate on iksar (and i think on hats on luclin non iksar models - irrelevant to p99) but just chain on all the other races. It’s a nice set but would take forever to get a suit.

I was going to buy it as a full suit if anything, maybe for 1kpp or so. But not if it has a chain look. I don't mind that on a Ranger, but on a Bard, Warrior or SK I'm gonna want a Plate look.

I actually had the crazy idea to go the dirt cheap route and just get a full set of Burynai Hide Armor for my ranger, and just use that to 40 or 50 if it were able to get me there.

Lamentation x2
Idol of the Thorned
Velium Fire Wedding Ring x2
Orc Fang Earring x2
Sash of the Dragonborn

The other 12 pieces would just be full Burynai Hide set. I doubt it would get me very far, but it was just a dumb thought.

As someone who twinked their Ranger with a Fungi, I'd be a hypocrite to say gear doesn't matter at all, but ... I strongly suspect that you will be way better off XPing in a cheap suit of armor you can afford now, than spending even an hour farming plat for better armor. Especially in a group, stats don't matter much.

Well, I like pre-planning and theorycrafting in general, but I'm not planning to make this Ranger until my Paladin is at least Level 49. And he's 27 at the moment.

Did you get a chance to check out Ry gor armor? It's not long now until you could maybe form a crew for the fort or mines...

Does it even drop in Crystal Caverns? I wasn't aware that it did.

Ideally I can see Paineel lasting until my late 30s, possibly even my 40s. And it's nearly 1kpp a level at the moment.

Hmm maybe it is just fort, perhaps i’m misremembering it dropping from the cc orcs.

Can someone confirm whether or not the Bow Haste on Fleeting Quiver stacks with Worn Haste on other gear, like Sash of the Dragonborn or Silver Chitin Hand Wraps?

Haste affects bow delay the same way it effects melee.

But archery uses one more kind of haste, stacking with the others : quiver haste (QH). It follows the same rules than all the other kinds of haste : only the best QH is used if more than one apply. To have a QH, you just need to have a Weight Reducing quiver in your inventory.

QH = WR of the quiver / 3. Quiver haste (and their weight reduction) activate with the release of Scars of Velious expansion.

As a side note, this same info really belongs in the http://wiki.project1999.com/Haste_Guide ... if anyone feels like adding it [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Great find Loramin…. can quiver force haste over the cap too tho? I'm guessing no...
