![]() ![]() Spell Striking: Jolting Touch is an excellent effect, since it zaps a number of nearby enemies with strong amount of shock damage (see the Jolting Tough spell for the exact numbers, I suppose). IIRC, from what I've read in here, a Spell Striking effect only triggers once per encounter (unfortunately). I'm honestly not sure if it is or isn't better than Borresaine but it would save you 10,000ish gold for a Figurine or the faction vendor accessories.Įither of these will carry you up until the third (I think) round of Bounties (requires act 3 and a few difficult fights), where you can pick up The Rain of Godagh Field, a Superb Speed War Bow, off of the Foemyna Bounty (Woodend Plains). Spell Striking is something I've never been able to work out when it does and doesn't trigger. Edited by BlovskiĬloudpiercer is a Fine, Spell Striking: Jolting Touch, Rending War Bow and is a reward for The Bronze Beneath The Lake, requiring you to side with the Dozens. Honestly if you're not angling for other Bounty equipment and you're prepared to up the quality enchantments, you can probably just take Borresaine and use it to the end of the game.

You can also get it by murdering Wenan, if you're that determined. Since your Ranger is a crit machine, it works very well for them and if you're not planning to join the Dozens, you should pick it up as soon as you arrive.Ĭloudpiercer is a Fine, Spell Striking: Jolting Touch, Rending War Bow and is a reward for The Bronze Beneath The Lake, requiring you to side with the Dozens. Defiance Bay contains two of the game's best War Bows. Borresaine is a Fine Stunning, Draining War Bow, which can be purchased in the Copperlane Market. It certainly seems to be holding up just fine. Adra Animats are the main enemy that my archer backline (at level 8ish) doesn't really have much of an answer to and they're hardly a major challenge as long as my frontline are alive otherwise I'm very pleased with the performance.įine War Bows seem to be easier to find early on than Fine Hunting Bows. This time, I'm running an Island Aumaua with a backup Arquebus and Scepter for encounters with high general/piercing DR. I am currently running a party with a custom hunting bow ranger NPC through PotD. as of 1.05, Marked Prey is being made a free action, which drastically improves its value for this kind of build. as of 1.05, Animal Companion Fatigue is being removed Lack of an edit button is deeply frustrating. This is not really that thread, much as it's nice that the peripheral discussion allows you to pick out the little things a bow ranger build gives you. ![]() I'm not stopping people making a thread on Gun Rangers or Bow Rogues if they want to work out their perfectest most powerful DPS build to go with their minmaxed 3 might fighters that can't ever be hit by any enemy in the game ever. My idea of viable is something that A) fulfills its role (YMMV as to what you think this means) and B) has features the alternatives for the role wouldn't. ![]() Theory crafting something that is prooven to be garbage ( bows on ranger and animal companion talents like defensive bond ) is a waste of time, as its clear that pillars can be completed with any party with any builds or even without a party so if you prefer bows there is noone to stop you, another issue would be bringing it up to the forums and then denying any advice and sticking to bows seems like wasted 44 posts and a thread. ![]()
