So I dont get it...

I keep coming here to read people whinning about how they cant play their ranger anymore, that they suck solo and all that.Am I so special that I have no problems soloing anything that is not Orange or Red? Granted I cant take a blue con heroic encounter, and groups of MoBs are tough to solo, but if you know your character you shouldnt have any problems playing it and soloing.

people whine if there class isn't overpowering like some of the classes are before they're nerfed. just ignore them, because rangers don't suck. yeah, other classes solo better than we do, and some can even take group encounters solo. they shouldn't be able to, and whining won't make sony let us do it. rangers can solo, they're not the best at it in terms of other classes.as long as your happy, you shouldn't care about other people's problems (especially coming from people that aren't 40+)

Thats An interesting fact "I have no problems soloing anything that is not Orange or Red?" can i ask for some proof, maybe a screenshot or two? I am not calling you a liar but that seems a little odd.

By that he he meant he can solo gray to yellow solo encounters.

Fedayki · 03-06-2005, 06:02 AM

You want proof that I can solo any non heroic Yellow or below? wow, your equipment must really suck if you cant...no offense, but I just dont get how is it possible to not solo up to yellow as long as you have decent equipment and decent tactics.Of course, if you have grey armor and just sit in front of a nightblood without HO, arrows or backstabs...well, then you are asking for it...

I dont have a problem soloing...had to solo sentry goorlux for SSoY quest when I was 39. He's a 38^^ mob in case ya didnt know. But its not the fact that I cant solo its the fact that paying outrageous amounts of gold to buy T5 arrows to keep up with the damage of other classes who just sit behind a mob and hit a button or sit on the sides and cast is upsetting to me and about every other 40+ ranger. I posted on the testing feedback forums about this so maybe the devs will actually read something bout this matter for once...so please people reply to this before the devs delete it cuz they most likely will.

I agree with you about the arrows...there should be an ability for rangers that gave something past Feyiron arrows.

Zemeckis · 03-06-2005, 10:08 AM

I personally like the idea of makeshift arrows upgrading every 10 levels. Like from 20-29 you make carbonite, from 30-39 you make feyiron and from 40-50 you make fulginate. Being able to produce your own arrows that can actually do good damage after lvl29 would actually let rangers be RANGErs. Ranged combat is a joke in this game and its the most expensive kind of combat I could imagine.

I think the arrow issue is a problem...but I dont think it should be fixed by giving Feyiron from makeshift in the 30's...that would give too many arrows. I think al lvl 40 you should get a "Feyiron makeshift arrows" as junk arrows, and make the upgrade to rip give fulginate.As a lvl 40, I still do a lot of damage using Feyiron...especially when I use triple shot + poison. On a good start of the battle, I can leave a yellow MoB with less than 50% life before it gets to me, and I am not using Fulginate but Feyiron. With Carbonite I can get them down to 65-70% if im lucky...thats why I think it would make it too easy if I was getting Fulginate arrows by the stack of 20 just by presing a button...I like the Idea of having to fight for 1 or 2 of them instead like I do with rip.
