<DIV>A few questions..</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>One, why is there a satchel as good as the best bow in game?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>If Monks/Rogues were meant to have Ranged equipment as good as the best bow, which they're not, why not just let Rangers know they'll never even be the best at what they're supposed to do?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Two, why don't rangers get any procs? </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Everything is so melee based, and a lot of the higher percentage, higher damage procs are off melee attacks? It doesn't do a lot for a whole Ranger when Agitate procs off melee only. In fact, it kind of sucks that the only working procs we get are the SK/Pally group statis, Act of Conviction, Ember seed, and dire inactive.. Every other buff proc in game is Melee only..</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Don't assassins have enough with (Extracting? that 30 second re-use drop and CA damage increaser), their self DPS buff, which makes them hit harder with their bows than we do, and a true AOE that hits almost as hard as Storm Of Arrows if it crits, with half the timer? You can't even consider the bow proc and actual proc, because those are as broken as any proc i've ever seen, given a 5 minute fight and seeing a bow enchantment proc 8 to 10 times is a load of [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn], compared to the assassins hitting with both DWs, both carrying a proc(depending on their playstyle, I don't want to hear [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn] about the grinnin dirk, or the dirk of negativity, or any of that bull) and still be able to step out and hit as hard with bows as we do?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>And [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn] did you do to the Acrylia rings?</DIV> <DIV>Strenght, 3% chance to increase DPS on a Melee hit....</DIV> <DIV>Agility, 3% chance to increase Haste on a Combat Art...</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>WHAT THE [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn]?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Stop playing favorites devs, yeah, we had our t6 god time, but that doesn't mean make the game melee oriented, especially to the assassin side of things.. In fact, i'm sure 100% of the rangers out there wouldn't mind less aggro control for some more DPS.. I can't really complain about my DPS, i'm satisfied where I sit, I guess.. But it's complete BS that a good assassin, at any given time, can just blow my parses out of the water.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I'm sure there are other procs out there I could complain about, but I can't recall them. It's still bull[expletive haxx0red by Raijinn].</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Oh, and Cacaphony of Blades..... [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn], another good one there, sony. Here melee, here's something else for Rangers to drool over.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>3. What the [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn] did you do to our god-bow, and why have I seen nothing in LUs about fixing it?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Is this another sick joke on the... Let's make half the games [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn] useless to rangers?... side of things? Well, the bow isn't useless, but it is useless for one of the Rangers keystone DPS abilities. That would be like making Exacting increase the DPS of only the 45-1 minute abilities, and still only affect the timers of those below 30 seconds. Again sony, do you have any god-damned brains?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>4. As mentioned in the rant in two....   Why aren't we the CLEAR SUPERIOR Ranged class?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Yes, we do have all the Ranged CAs, but no other class should hit as hard with a bow, as we do... This includes auto-attacks. The Range modifier needs to be redone t5 style again, some how modifying bow DPS..  NO CLASS should be able to turn on bow auto-attack, and beat me in a duel... (or even hit as hard with an auto-shot as I do)</DIV> <DIV>Here's a list that do beat me in such manner...</DIV> <DIV>Every other class that can use a ranged weapon, in the weapon slot...</DIV> <DIV>Example, a Brigand, with tarinax satchel vs me with Venekor Bow, brigand win.</DIV> <DIV>Bruiser with princes Satchel vs me with Tarinax bow, Bruiser win.</DIV> <DIV>Any tank class, due to mitigation (Well, this is understandable)</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>That shouldn't happen =D</DIV> <P>Message Edited by xMiLoSiSx on <SPAN class=date_text>09-06-2006</SPAN> <SPAN class=time_text>07:57 AM</SPAN></P><p>Message Edited by xMiLoSiSx on <span class=date_text>09-06-2006</span> <span class=time_text>07:57 AM</span>

and by satisfied with my DPS, in case anyone wonders... Is around 1.8,1.9k. Not saying I run around with this as my zone average, but I can do that on any named where an assassin can hit 2k, hell, on some named I can do that where an assassin can't hit 2k.. There's a few of those =D.

<DIV>Woot, new gripe!</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I was wrong about Cloaked Assualt, it's a 30 second  recast! So..</DIV> <DIV>Since I'm int line... Our assassin get's that off 6 times to my 1 storm of arrows...</DIV> <DIV>700-1200 AE damage</DIV> <DIV>209 piercing over 12 seconds, every two...</DIV> <DIV>30 second recast</DIV> <DIV>.7 second cast..</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Compared to..</DIV> <DIV>2400-4000 damage, every 3 minutes</DIV> <DIV>1.4 second cast</DIV> <DIV>3:00 recast</DIV> <DIV>unless you went Perfectionist, which I did not..</DIV> <DIV>it's more like 2800-4400</DIV> <DIV>1.4 second cast</DIV> <DIV>1:30 recast</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>How do these even [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn]ing compare? [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn], we could through in selection and still not match assassins in terms of ability DPS for AE... </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Again, Sony, are assassins supposed to be superior in both AE and Single target DPS?</DIV>

Seems so <img src="/smilies/69934afc394145350659cd7add244ca9.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />Hopefully they some day realize that rangers ~ assassins, thus they should do comparable overall DPS.++Xan<div></div>

<P>its a 2min recast with perfectionist, only shaves a minute off and its max damage is 4600ish m1 =o but ya I Agree.</P> <P>Just hope for some loving in EoF I still think the only reason we didnt get double attack this go around was becasue we share an AA line with assassins and that would of GREATLY overpowered them. so we remain under powered.</P> <P>But! new AAs in EoF are suppose to be class specific. so who knows maybe it will be out Luclin, huh.. 3rd expac to, guess histroy repeats itself.. maybe? </P> <P>Besides just remember that Assassin is the made up class =P If anything ts the sub class for a rouge! but GG sony had to split all the real classes in half for EQ2 and try to use a Realm Vs Realm DAOC theme but without the pvp on launch...[expletive haxx0red by Raijinn]</P><p>Message Edited by RinionX on <span class=date_text>09-07-2006</span> <span class=time_text>11:05 AM</span>
