<DIV>Hi i was thinking of respecing to</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Agilty 4-4-4-8-8</DIV> <DIV>Int      5/4/4/8</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I don't solo much but raid a few times per week</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Is Poise worth it? Can I fit in extra attacks or does it mess up the timming of shooting off a range ca then an auto attack right after</DIV>

<DIV>That's my AA setup, and i'm typically at the top of the parse.. I see a lot of 2ks..</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>But then again i've got top end bows.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I still think it's the way to go, you could probably take off the extra add to int to put into one of the damage abilities.</DIV>

When capped my AA line will look similar except I'm planning to put the last point in STR just for grins and giggles. Though once I'm maxed on AA's I do plan on one respec to go down the AGI/STR line just to see what difference it makes to my over all stats.

I use the same AA setup, although my last point is in PBS, as I find a few stat points here and there relatively meaningless.AGI/STR is a viable alternative, although it seems to me it is much less forgiving (for raids) because you have to work very hard to mantain similar DPS to what you can pull down with ranged crit/spell crit maxed w/poise.  This is good for me because I lead raids and am often paying attention to a lot of things in addition to fighting.  It also helps on mobs with more than 1 AOE (or something like talendor), because I usually don't joust for these fights.

Well I have to say that I doubted the AGI/INT line when I first read about it. However going down that line and gearing for WIS or AGI/STR has really improved things. I now feel like I contribute more to raids and groups than I did before.

<P>I run the same setup and would recommend to any ranger. Actually my last point went into the poison debuff skill, but that shouldn't matter much. Getting good bows will be what lets you get the numbers Skaer is talking about.</P> <P>-Katsugen</P>
