Currently my swashie is lvl 47. I recently started a ranger to lvl a bit because my wife gets annoyed if I get to many lvls above her on my main. The ranger just dinged 28. To be honest I'm starting to feel a bit insecure about my swashie's DPS. I know ranger are tier one DPS and swashies are tier 2 but I have been noticing some things that kind of make me step back and worry a bit. My ranger (At lvl 2

has several CA's that hit pretty hard. My average hidden shot (App4) is landing for around 600-800 damage. That ALOT of damage espically when I look at my lvl 47 swash whos highest CA (Mastered) lands for 600 if I'm lucky. Knowing that one is tier one DPS and one is tier 2 really isnt doing much to ease my mind. When my rangers app4 CA is hitting for the same if not more then my swashies masterII CA I have to think I am doing something wrong. The gear on my swashie is good. Not the best but good. All my jewlery, armor and weapon is mastercrafted. I don't have a single piece of gear that doesnt have +str on it. I have heard that a well played swashie will generally not BEAT a ranger on the parse but will generally give them a good run for thier money. At the moment I'm not really seeing how that is possible when my lvl 28 rangers CA's hit harder then my 47 swashie. Any adivice on info on this subecjt would be greatly appericated.Thanks all!
