    Just when I was leveling my Ranger and hoping there would be some fresh videos around to give me a guideline as to how to create a solid solo build. Glad this game has this much great UA-cam content.

    This is very similar to my ranger build, so I can definitely confirm that it works like a charm. When built right Rangers are one of the most powerful classes in the game, as well as one of the more user friendly ones. They are a popular choice for a reason.

    Hey there, quick tip for those with End of Dragons: the Juvenile Siege Turtle is VERY good with these traitlines! The 'dome' skill it has pulses 10 whole seconds of protection, which not only provides the 33% damage reduction but also equates to ~3000 healing from Wilderness Survival. Also, as all your boons are given to the pet (from Nature Magic) , its protection duration is essentially doubled, giving it 20 seconds of damage reduction and healing, making your little turtle VERY tanky.

    @painfullyaware5221 Рік тому +1

    Just yesterday I made a very similar build. I use torch instead of dagger though, so I can stay at range, but still have a personal aoe if I get mobbed. I also decided on Beast Mastery instead of Nature Magic for the blind on using beast abilities, but mainly so my pet can taunt. I thought that taunt would make positioning easier. Thoughts?

    • @andybanan1992
      @andybanan1992 Місяць тому

      If you boosted your ranger it means you most likely have a full celestial set which is amazing for solo content, it gives basically everything you need, so you sacrefice some dps for greatly increased defense and sustain.

  • @andybanan1992
    @andybanan1992 Місяць тому

    Im doing a full story playthrough now for the first time and went with ranger for this. I use shortbow + dagger/dagger and honestly its just absolutely insane, its ONLY drawback imoh is its lack of Aoe abilities.
    I use bow mainly for most things, and daggers for melee combat or big burst as you can stavk up 20-30 stacks of poison+ bleed in a short duration before switching back to your bow and disengage for better sustained damage

  • @Mandoolin
    @Mandoolin Рік тому +2

    Without trying this build myself - the way you describe it and its flaws the build could most likely run energy sigils and still preform well. Playing it similarly to mirage with more agressive dodging. This will probably lower your damage but it should greatly boost survivability. Alternatively, one weapon set could run energy, giving you a reliable way to dodge everytime you swap to that weapon set.

    • @CaffeinatedDad
      @CaffeinatedDad  Рік тому +1

      That's actually a great point! Add in a quick dodge here and there with energy Sigil and more survivability. I mean are you going to notice a little less damage?

    I must be missing something, How can you use axe/daggers with this and not be soulbeast? I was trying to figure it out. Although when I look at the tree the dagger is grey, does that mean that it isn't trained? I can equip them if I have soulbeast in the build. This is user error I am sure.

    Bow classes/specs really need a rework and buffs. I only play longbow ranger because using a bow is the appeal for me playing my ranger. She does fine in open world content but her damage output is way lower than my other characters like my Firebrand.

    • @Evenaardez
