I would like a balanced and damage oriented Ranger with the ability to (off)tank need should arise.
So, for sure I need Might to deal damage, Dex to DPS, Per to crit and reflexes, Int for skills and Res for melee survive-ability.
You see where I'm going...
Might and Dex or Per should be maxed (18ish), but then I only have a bunch of points for Dex or Per, Int and Res. And no, dumping Con it's a baaad idea IMO.
Now, I could forget to increase Res (and probably regret it first time I enter in melee) but still, Dex/Per and Int aren't gonna be as effective. I tried with a:
Migh 18
Con 10
Dex 14
Per 18
Int 10
Res 10
Melee hurts bad and my skills are not as effective as I would dream.
So I am asking the opinion of some of our RPG experts.
1. Which stats are easier to keep up by other means than char-gen?
2. What is most important to achieve the results I am aiming for?
3. In the aforementioned build, should I keep Dex at 10 and put those 4 points in Int?
4. Wood elf is good at ranged but I would go Human for more balance, is that ok?
5. What advice you have for me?
Thank you! ^^
