Chanter Summons are Significantly Tankier and Do More Damage than Ranger Pets


Recommended Posts

Pssst be quiet! Because the devs think maybe, don't buff the rangers pet, nerf the chanter summons!

 

I would actually not be surprised if they made the Chanter's dragon as bad as Aspect of Galawain...

For the amount of points you can pump into a ranger pet, yeah. The pet should be much nastier if invested into.

But chanters could use an overhaul in general. They are too passive and there is little reason to invest in many invocations.

Seems kInd of like apples and oranges comparing a chanters short duration summoned creature to a ranger pet that's always there (unless you do the Ghost Heart) ?

The whole point of the class is its passive buffs.  If you want more active abilities, then use another class.

I don’t want more active abilities, I want a reason to invest more than 2-4 points in the active part of the tree and all the rest into passives. So longer ability chains to make entire songs with lulls and crescendos.

...also taking part in the discussion the wrong way if you ask me.

Can't remember when sarcasm lead to a fruitful conversation.

 

Pfff, whatever Boeroer. Poe's Law is just a myth, sarcasm is obvious in context-free forum posts. DUH.

If I'm typing in red, it means I'm being sarcastic. But not this time.

Dark green, on the other hand, is for jokes and irony in general.

INB4 ... Ranger is strongest class ... Ranger has best accuracy ... Evasive Fire ... never got my pet killed ... you're playing the game the wrong way ...

There it is. :)

Oh god, this made me laugh more than it should have. So true.

 

But to be honest we can probably expect some kind of pet buff in the future. However, more important stuff needs to be changed first. As you can see in the Patch Notes, some very big changes await the Ranger: most importantly, Roots skills will have the Plant keyword! Not to mention the Evasive Fire damage nerfs. These serious changes are way more important than some silly pet. Pffft.

:lol: I read Rot Skulls instead of Root Skills. Haha oh my. Major fail on my part, sorry. I blame it on sleep deprivation...

 

But now seriously: did somebody try Rot Skulls with a Ranger? Should be quite cool with Driving Flight (=double AoE splash?).

Better than: INB4 ... Boeroer ... Ranger is strongest class ... Ranger has best accuracy ... Evasive Fire ... never got my pet killed ... you're playing the game the wrong way ...
