Why would skip all the rogue talents , when you can take them and other accuracy stuff and just wreck faces with a bow doing crits i never said ranger outdamages rogue overall as ranged dps i mean that ranger is better with weapons that takes times to reload , and rogue is better with bows and you want a bow character why not go rogue and just stop whining , it seems you want to whine before anything else go whine somewhere else sleep well yourself sir goodnight .

So it basically resets Characters to the point of transition between level 1 and level 2 right ? You can choose level 2 talent and skill ? Or you can choose level 1 skills also , but cant choose stuff like attributes , and class related stuff like companions forms and orders ?

TLDR : Caster Mage's being one of those few classes that are dying in combat(High Risk High Reward anyone?)was a major problem in PoE . We decided to change this nonsense . P.S. Score free football game next saturday .

You clearly are the one not reading ... i told you : IT DOESNT HAVE TO BE A BLUNDERBUSS IT CAN BE ANY WEAPON THAT HAS HIGH RELOAD TIME THAT IS : PISTOL , BLUNDERBUSS,ARQUEBUS,CROSSBOW, ARBALEST , and ranger will out damage a rogue who is using same weapon as ranger given its one of those weapons i pointed out to you also in caps this time , so it easier to read for you ! p.S. just look at this rekt. and that was posted after i wrote :

1) No For Sure No 4) No For Sure No 2) & 3) most likely no Edit : wtf i am talking 2 and 3 is big NO NO spirit shift of hiravias and stupid wolf is like part of the companion design 100% no

Yeh MadDemiurg is right as usual , atleast someone here is sane . And Tigranes is just defending the patch with tooth and nail , respectable loyalty , but do you take us for retards or?

Voltron seriously , why do you think ranger quick switching Arquebus , Pistol , Crossbow , or Arbalest wouldnt out damage rogue who uses the same weapon? Anything that has reload animation rango beats rogue to ****in dust and let's a bear to take dump on top . That is Niche for Rangers to use wepaon's that has high reload times , also they get superior CC over rogue : Stuning Shots and Binding Roots . While ranged rogue roll's with bow's and uses single target debuffs to make targets weaker . It is clearly that your wet fantasy dream was about ranged rogue not a ranger , why not play it and stop whining ? Bear can hold Front Line with some buffs and heals it gets from being near the tanks easy , but this is not ideal scenario for ranger , you want your pet to be able to freely reach the targets in the back to disrupt them while ranger clint eastwood them all .

its more if you got proper INT right ? Per rest is not an argument please dont shame the developers any more , per rest means 4 loading screens away . 10 Seconds is a ton by itself tho , dont forget this is RTwP where after pause is released game runs on Slow Mode usually , and 12~ seconds of being god is a won fight in PoE , How many fan of flames wizard can do in 10 seconds ? Atleast 5 ! Another day another fail Tigranes yesterday it was something about it being hard to pull off ( Using 1 skill he Meant )

@Voltron You whine about Rangers being Weaker to Rogues , but You wont build Ranger in a way where it does the most damage and out damage's Rogue Also you want PoE ranger's to be exactly like you imagine in your wet dreams about fantasy world and come here complaining that they are not like you have imagined Meanwhile Ranger's only problem is Animal Companion being utter crap and Bonding Grief or w/e its called to be pain in the ass, but you still can do enormous amount of damage only if you decide to stop jerking off about your "true sniper" and play true quickswitcher rofl . Please stop When your own arguments are utter **** asking for them from others is not always a bright idea , because look what happens . Edit : Also ranger was never meant to be true sniper in PoE , hence the animal companion thing .

Wasn't chanters like one of the first classes to do TCS

Does Wizards Double and Arcane veil stack ? +115 deflection it is ?

Ranger is fine , that little ****er animal companion is what need's fixing .

+75 Deflection is a real thing tho , i bet this is more than you get from starting with 19 perception and 19 resolve :D and what if you do start with max resolve and perception with wizard and pop +75 deflection , who is gonna hit you then ? Adra Dragon? Maybe if it gets lucky !

Patch notes clearly suggest you should go for wizard on your next playtrough

.... /thread

Forget Arquebus wood elf's and stuff like that - wrong approach, its all about Blunderbuss , Island Aumaua , Quick Switch , Arms Bearer , Penetrating Shots , Envenomed Strike( You apply 1 Envenomed Strike out of 6 but it make's sure it CRIT ) , Gunner , Ruffian Focus - Rogue Cant have this build unless you skip all rogue talents . Meanwhile ranger skips nothing of use . Also Vicious Aim + Marked Pray + Wounding Shots + Stunning Shots+ Stalkers Link are great skillset to fire 4 blunderbusses into somebody's face . Also you can either have a wizard for combusting wounds or use combusting wounds ring yourself or on any1 else to make this build super sweet Open Fight with Marked Pray+Someone casts Combusting Wounds and 1-shot one target , then start using Wounding Shots + Envenomed Strike while quick switching after every shot . Guaranteed : Most Damage done in Party , Most kills done in Party , Most time Consumed in Party

Might is most important to any character that does damage or healing , Intellect is important to any character that does AOE or has long duration spells ( this includes stuff like barbarians(aoe) and rogues(duration)) Constitution SUX in general Dex is Good when paired with ton of MIGHT and usually these both are maxed together on damage dealer characters ( both physical and magical) Resolve and Perception are primary tanking stats , also Resolve is important for characters that need concentration ( more concentration less interrupts on you ) What you Max depends on what your character is going to do more than on its class because one class can have different roles in a party and require different attributes.

Make party that consists of : 1 Warrior(tanking) , 1 Priest(easy heals easy buffs),and few wizards( can do anything from the next patch )

Ranger with Quick Switch will outdamage anyone in the party tho , assuming he has the best blunderbuss'es , also cipher or rogue doing same tactic would do more damage probably but cipher has to cast spells and rogue needs debuffs from other party members for that , want mad burst? Island Aumaua Ranger+4 Blunderbuss'es , pet is a real problem tho you gota take huge risk for +8 accuracy from attacking same target as your pet but you risk loosing pet and getting that evil debuff... bear is only viable option here .

Are people still trying to prove that there are better stats to max for DPS RANGED ROGUE than Might,Dex and INTELLECT , intellect is the only one that could theoretically add damage out from other 3 stats ( Con,Per,Res) , neither of those will increase your damage except INTELLECT might help you to keep debuff long enough on some enemy to finish it faster . It is very sad that this is the only discussion going on . @Looms : well what else would you take over intellect? Cons? Resolve ? you still can max Might Dex Int + Perception almost maxed (16-17 pts depending on race) some people seem just to hate the fact that physical dps could use intellect doesnt seem very rpg right ? stupid INT discussion aside ( never asked anything about INT this is set in my build its 18 Intellect at lvl 1 ), i agree with most of your points Having to Micro Manage Marking and Minor Threat shouldn't be a problem , also for Race i alrdy did Wood Elf once maybe will just pick Orlan for the dialogue and some variety and Max crit in this build , imo 10 crit > 5 accuracy , but orlan gets worse starting stats so it makes them very even for me. , also you said 45% crit with wood elf in your build that is very nice what buffs were used for this ? About pally companion : its either Pallegina for crit aura while she would use guns or grieving mother(just being cipher good enough) using guns blunderbuss or two,seems i wont avoid Quick Switching this playtrough either . What weapon would you go with ? Persistence? I am thinking to get Weapon Focus at lvl 12 so i might just use both Hunting Bow's and War Bows and see which will be better with the build . What would be your choice for Buffs(Inn's Courtesan's , God's Quest) trough out the game +Might ? or +Dex ? or Spread both evenly like 26~ might 26~ dex endgame ?

After patch Draining Whip will be 33% of damage done , how Dagger is better here than a Sabre ? Dont forget that you never gona hit more than 2 times before you stop to cast spells ( well unless ofc with a ****ty dagger with negative damage might need to hit more than twice , but 2 sabre swings should always give you enough focus to cast a spell ) I just really dont see in this ocean of "balance" any point to use fast 1 handers over Sabre unless those 1handers got some essential enchantments ofcourse . Sabre does damage close to 2hander , any ability that does 1.X damage is better with Sabre , any % of damage gained as something is better with sabre . Should added that Ruffian class instead of Cipher imo , Sabre's and Blunderbuss'es all the way yaar

Where did you pull this fast weapons > slow weapon for cipher , just another speculation ? Esp now after 1.05 that is not the case and before it was only if you took the talent that adds+2focus per hit and that talent was only good to use with blunderbuss where blunderbuss is used as a mean to recharge focus not to do any noticable damage . Proclamations and Speculations all over this forum even in Build discussion section where it should be mostly facts and calculations .

Another troll this time with moderator tag . Autism over 9k . Also try to read , and when you fail to do so try to read again , then ask somebody to help you to read and when you are sure you read it all then THINK and after you think then consider if its worth to reply .

Cant believe you found a game with worse combat than PoE. 10 Respect points to you sir .

Divinity OS is so drawn out though. The game should have ended a while before it actually did. I like long games, but if it's going to be long the quests need to be interesting. that is actually the only bad thing you can say about divinity , it gets boring in the end yeh well lets not forget that part where its 243232 times better game mechanically and in terms of "balance" than what we got here .
