any other rangers get fed up with a lack of useful raid loot ? Tanks, mages, healers all get great loot, and things that enhance them alot. Us scouts get crap though, nothing that really makes a diff. If your in legendary equipment, with legendary poisons.. well then adding a piece of fabled doesnt do alot for our DPS.. fabled DW weapon.. eh .. boring...bout the only useful thing is master spells and those are rare as hell.Every [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn] raid is full of cool items for the tanks, cool mage items with +20, +30 int.. i'm really bored with raiding this character..luckily I have a tank at 47 who can start goin along to raid on the bagillion heavy armor items.<div></div>

<div>Theres several scout drops in DoF, my guild once went thru a phase where nothing but plate and mage items droped, but recently lots of scout gear has been droping. Courts has 2 predator only items, rogue leggings and bard bracers/bangle, several scout items in Gates and Poets Return tho the chain that drops in there has agi/sta stats which few scouts would want, and none from Lockjaw unfortuately, and few from Barakah in MD.</div>

You know thats the thing about a scout is you have to be used to Not being able to loot alot fo stuff. In Eq1 it was till Planes of Power the the "scout type" classes acually got alot of loot. each expanstion targets a class typ eand provides the w/ look. More then likely you'll be seeing Scout type loot in KoS. Patience is a virtue and you'll be rewarded if you wait.<div></div>
<div></div>I just found a really kick [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn] fabled necklace in the roost not that long ago made ingenially for scouts. I believ it had 15str 15 agi and 15 sta plus some other stats but it was really dam nice. though i dont get it every scout I see running around has nice fabled on him and theres even fabled hats chest gear boots aand sometimes weapons whats so hard about finding gear while raiding?Actually u dont even need a raid I found the necklace when i was just in a grp of 5 in the roost loot killing. cant remember the lv was probably 50 somthing<div></div><p>Message Edited by holystones on <span class="date_text">02-14-2006</span><span class="time_text">08:14 PM</span></p>

<div></div><p>Ya, theres a huge lack in good scout gear for t6. Even the weps are sub par. the stats are no better than t5 with the exception of the amount of autoattack dmg that they do. Same with the gear, it's all pretty crappy with the exception of higher mitigation and resists. (which we just dont need as rangers). Try to find a decent pari of scout legs lately? At least theres t5 legs with high str and int together, good luck finding any t6 legs like that other than I think cobalt. Bottom line it all sux and hopefully we see some decent gear in KoS (and no so much [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn] priest gear). All our priests are working on 2nd and 3rd sets of backup fabled while our scouts can barely get anything.</p><p>LeoricLevel 60 ranger</p>

After launch when our damage was based on Agi this made sense, however this not the case any more, but the gear that is "Scout Specific" is still very +Agi heavy. I would prefer a wep that was +30Str +25Int....and no Agi then +Agi they throw in there. I realize our power is based on Agi, but [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn] I haven't been LoP in like a year</p>

Just remember each expation is CLASS specific. This holds True for all MMO's just Think KoS Might be Very heavy on SCout loot while low on Caster/Fighter loot. just remember if you wait things do tend to get better. SoE has done this for years on there expanstions always a class spefic loot table that is better then the other classes in every expation.<div></div>

that maybe true but I'm not seeing a huge benfit from alot of the fabled stuff.. some extra mit ?.. wow .. awesome.. more AGI ?.. great .. *yawn* .. none of it makes much diff at all.INT is the only thing that really raises my damage anymore, and thats about to be nerf'd in KOS with the changes to poison procs.<div></div>
