<font size="4">1st of all I like poison.... and I like to mentor ever once in a while and I have found that using poisons then mentoring gives you a great deal of damage you never could do when you were at that lvl. I think this a is a glitch that shouldnt be fixed. 2nd Guys should I put all my poisons on or just a few, in other word do my poisons stack. or have I been throwing money out the window? 3rd Where is the Ranger fun spell at? and when do I get it. =D 4th I like the pet idea posted somewhere on this thread. Hope we get that that would be awesome! 5th why do Rangers get the shaft? I cant solo nothing, but I can tank with a healer everyonce in a while.and I have all orange armor BTW and Asserys. 1st comment I love the Ranger class but Its a hard class to play right. 2nd I hate the close melee combat Ranged weapons rock! 3rd But I hate it when I die Poison cost suck! 4th Thanks guys for helping me you guys Rock! </font><div></div>

<DIV>1. Nice to hear.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>2. Poisons don't stack. Only one will be on at a time. Having four on increases the chance of one hitting, but once another one hits, it cancels the previous one. Your call. If you really want, then do two poisons at a time. I personally don't stack any.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Additionally, for lower level stuff(i.e., when I solo or small groups) I stick with the high initial damage poisons since they'll hit a lot more. When fighting in groups where we normally take on much tougher enemies who probably resist a lot more, then I use a more balanced initial-hit, DoT poison. I'm not such a fan of the high DoT, low initial damage ones. Again, this is personal preference.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>3. At lvl 20, head to Eldar wood, one of the 3 trainers has it and all you App ii spells to. Called Phyn's Hunting Hawk. Noting at level 30 and at level 40, a cute bear at the same place, with the three trainers.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>4. Yeah, they sound very interesting.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Hope this was in any way informative.</DIV>

<FONT face="Courier New" color=#aaff55>Personally, I stacked 2, the 2 highest in DPS (and good initial for balance), just to get the odds one will hit in my favor. You can live with one.</FONT><p>Message Edited by Tsoth on <span class=date_text>03-31-2005</span> <span class=time_text>09:57 AM</span>

<DIV>It is kinda hard to solo while you are in your 20s, but once you hit 30 you can solo like a mofo. You have at least 6 ranged attacks and an attack that slows the mob. I have sucsesfully defeated a white con herioc encounter. It takes lots of arrows and a lot of time so it is not really worth it, but it can be done. Stick with it and you will be a kiting machine soon.</DIV>

<P>Glad you are enjoying yourself.</P> <P>Poisons, I use a low DD high DoT dmg ones only now. After doing some parses, it showed to give me the best DPS. I only use one poison at a time. Only advantage of stacking multiple poisons is that when one wears off mid combat, you don't hae to stop and reapply. I could be wrong about this, but I have never seen alternating procs on stacked poions. In my experience the first one applied will go off everytime and will do so until it wears off. </P> <P>I do suggest using player made poisons since the dmg is better, but the resist rate is much better. Espiceally when you get intoo the 2nd half of a tier. Also, currently there is a bug with poison that is making them not use charges up. I have been using the same vial for over a week now. </P> <P>Soloing will get a bit easier once you hit 28 and get Triple shot. After that taking down yellow solo con mobs becomes much easier.</P>

I would definitely recommend not stacking the poisons. First it doesnt gain you anything; second when you die and have them stacked you will not be happy. Its like dying just after you just drank that T5, 1 gold drink....resist the temptation. <div></div>
