<div></div><div><font face="Comic Sans MS">Ok guys lol sorry for what is probably ANOTHER AA question post. But I'ma ask anyways. </font></div><font face="Comic Sans MS"></font><div>I've been playing my Coercer for extremly to long and I wanna get back to my ranger. She's lvl 65 (Not sure how much that matters) But I wanted the oppinion of a few of the old rangers I once knew about what AA's you think are best for a ranger who don't really solo... Or raid nowadays. I mainly group so I don't and won't have nothing fancy from t7 anytime soon. *cries over scout loots I see drop when on my mage* But *sniffles* Whats the vote guys? Int/Agi? Str? (close range doesn't really appeal to me... or I'd have been an assassin)</div><div> </div><div>And what phat ranger useable loots can I try to hunt down as a non-raider! ^_^</div>

<div>my personal choice was AGI line first down to maxing out ranged crit attacks. As i needed a STR boost im currently filling that line now</div>

AGI Line first. I maxed out Ranged Crits first, then finished off poised (still unsure on how exactly that might affect our crit chances). I am now working on maxing out Point Blank Shot for the stun and damage components.Once I complete that I am still trying to decide if I want to go STR for parry increase (str will be running at cap with relic armor), or if I want to go WIS.

<div></div><div>As far as items goes , you prolly wanna try get some of loot from Egg instance in Barren Sky , a good helm drops from last named that is scout only , also a bracers drops from in there , forgot the name of the named though</div><div> </div><div>You can do blackscale sepulcher for some weapons , either the Fang or the scimitar that drops in there , both legendary weapons , also some  nice arms drops in there from last named , again legendary</div><div> </div><div>You can also work on Grizzlefazzle ( not sure thats the right name of it) You get to pick a bow ( legendary) when you finish the quest , really easy quest</div><div> </div><div>Then once u get to 68-70 , u can get groups to do Halls of Fate and hope to get the breastplate to drop at the end ( scout only legendary) nice earring drops in there too called Death Trance</div><div> </div><div>Boots u can camp the named on Breeding Grounds , 15str 20agi with FT3</div><div> </div><div>Thats about what i can think of right now , as far as group attainable items =)</div><div> </div><div>Good Luck</div><div> </div><div> </div><div>Now 70th Ranger=)</div><p>Message Edited by Garlicyesterday on <span class="date_text">04-08-2006</span><span class="time_text">03:25 PM</span></p>

<div>I don't think I like the str line to much. I probably wont be doing anything that requires parrying ect. My tanks i play with on both characters are awsome tanks. It's more likely that I'll randomly fall over dead than die from aggro. I'm thinking about the str line. And so far I have grizzfazzles and the boots hehe. The helm I saw drop once while on my coercer.. *hates no trade items* My shoulders are the ones off skywatcher. I think I like those more for the proc than I would the ones from Blackscale. I have yet to see the BP but I hope to see a new good one lol.. I have yet to do HoF on my ranger though Thanks for the input guys ^_^</div>

<div></div>From what you've said here, I'd say your best bets are the AGI line, definitely max out ranged crit, then the Int line down to at least spell crit and max that out.  Poise helps to make Stream work right for us again, but I hate the fact we have to drop 8 aa's to "fix" a skill that should be corrected by SOE on their own.  It's nice for those folks that think they will come steal nodes from you while you're harvesting too. =)
