Greetings to all my fellow marksman,

I'm currently lvling my lvl 94 sniper and blindly adding stat points according to my hunter's knowledge. After doing some "research" on The Wiki, I found that I'm in the right path towards becoming a Hybrid ranger. My personal stat build in my mind deviates from the stat build suggested by the wiki, so I need any advice to understand the pro and cons of the build I have in mind.

 

My Build

STR: 2

AGI: 100

VIT: 90

INT: 91

DEX: 120

LUK: 91

 

Wiki's Hybrid Build

STR: 30

AGI: 120

VIT: 90

INT: 50

DEX: 105

LUK: 90

 

The EQ that goes with my build is probably a Temp Dex Boots, G. Crossbow, Rideword Hat/Vanargand, FAW/HBP, S. Amplifier and White Wing set+Elven Bow as starter equips.(I have none of it except the RWH lol :P) currently still using +7 Poaching Kingbird Gakkung from my hunter's days :ani_swt3:

 

So from what I can see the wiki's build concentrates more towards  Warg Strike ASPD, while my build are more towards maximizing AS damage. So I hope the experts out there can help me to pin point the pro and cons of my build compared to the wiki's. :thx:

This ranger will be mainly about pvm/mvp or maybe pvp/woe in the future. So any advice about my EQ is also nice.

 

And can anyone justify those 30 STR in the wiki's? Is it for trap damage? or potting/weight capacity? I really have no idea... :p_swt:

Feel free to share your opinions~

you can drop WW set and start using temp boots (dex for more dmg, agi for more aspd), menblatt carded FAW ea10, double sound amp to help short cast, and freedom to choose armor. at 120 dex you already get 51% ranged damage bonus using +9 menblatt carded ea10 FAW and temp dex boots ea4
30 str is mainly for weight.

Hi, sorry, I was the one that edited the hybrid build section at the irowiki. The reason I suggested 30 STR at the end of the build was, like what Fuyuki said, to increase weight limit and at the same time, increase your ATK as well. 

 

At 110 Dex (I evaluated the end build after seeing this post) and 90 Luk, the stat points required to increase your Atk is 24 points (Dex +1) and 33 points (Luk +3) respectively. Meanwhile, raising your STR by 5 for +1 Atk only costs 20 stat points at most. Therefore, allocating Str to raise Atk seems to be the better option economically.

 

You are most welcome to criticize and discuss the build suggestion so that we can improve it further.  :p_hi:

 

P.S. Everyone has their own playing styles, so those builds in irowiki should only be used to give you a picture of what stats are important for your class. It's by no means the perfect build, so do try to take your playing style and gears into consideration as well.

I thought str provides physical atk and not ranged.

5 str = 1 atk for bow, gun, instrument and whip.

ranged is physical attacks too. The other type would be close range, or melee.

I have found something intriguing; 30 base STR doesn't add +1 ATK, but instead 31 base STR adds +1 ATK.

And same goes with 5 str doesn't add ATK, but 6 STR adds to ATK. This ATK addition is not influenced by job bonus or equip/card bonus, its simply came from base stats.

Am I doing something wrong here? And just to be clear I'm using http://calc.irowiki.org/ as my reference.

 

p/s Thanks for answering the question. I was thinking 30 STR is too damn high :Emo_18: if its just for the weight capacity since the person playing ranger must be rich enough to buy a Heavy Lifter Box.

Job bonuses and other buffs? It could be the calculator isn't 100% accurate too... Really generally you should only ever use calculators for approximations or just for stat allocation.
