So far, I've been using this build: http://www.ro2skills...dBkFlbdBeFeDqA1

It's great and all, except I think AV at max level is not that good. While I was using RHD bow, I did about 300~400 damage each tick with AV. But after I got the colo bow and some hard mode raid gear, AV did about 400~500 damage. I was disappointed in the damage after the upgrade (about 1.8k to 2.2k with buffs). In other words, I might want AV at level 1, or maybe not.

But I wonder about FA; I heard some good things about it, but is it worth maxing? I mean it's only a 10% upgrade in damage. Someone suggested that I should go complete FA build, but I'm not sure if it's the most effective of all. I also question about Fear Breeze at max, too. I mean 10% haste from Fear Breeze with max Wind Walk seems alright, especially with Guardian on. I do around 2.2k~2.5k max on Charge Arrow with my equipment and buffs.


(Unbuffed.)

So far, I have (all level 50):
Normal Mode Headgear
Hard Mode Shirts
Hard Mode Pants
Hard Mode Gloves
Normal Mode Shoes
Normal Mode Ornament
+5 Colo Bow (with +5 agi rune)
Colo Quiver (with +5 agi rune)
Colo DPS Earrings (STR)
Colo DPS Necklace (STR)
Normal Mode Ring
Blue DPS Ring

My current card set is:
Executor Meister Card x1
Juliana Russil Cards x2
Scratch Thief Cards x2

Stat build:
41 STR / 41 AGI


I would like to try to do more damage than what I can do now I guess with a better build.

That's pretty much what I'm rolling with at the moment. Keep AV maxed, the extra damage is amazing.

Here's the thing I've noticed with FA: it's awesome...when it works. Since it's pretty much a coin flip for me on whether or not the bird wants to actually attack or just fly around, I've opted to keep it at 1 point for now.

Never max out Fear Breeze. Yeah, 10% extra aspd sounds nice, but you'll almost never be sitting on max stacks for long periods of time since you're an AV Ranger.

I decided to try out a FA build with max poison arrow and I had a real damage improvement compared to the AV build I had.

This is the build I decided with: http://www.ro2skills...BkFlbdDeFeAaorA

So in conclusion, FA works really well in raids, but not so much in colo unless you can single someone out.

To maximize damage don't max out Arrow Vulcan and try maxing out Falcon Assault.
Falcon Assault builds could be maximized better if you try to invest more on true sight which lessens the cooldown time of the skill.

if u want you can have both maxed VA ,falcon , and windwalk just drop fear breeze to level 1 and poison arrow to lvl 1 you can drop also the main ranger by one point make it level 4 and put it on falcon eyes or make your poison level 3 its up to you i can do hard pve and colo without a problem with that build and funny things when doin some colo releasing two falcon in a crowd can almost kill two player if your lucky three but not always

I like the current build I'm using and I've been doing better damage in raids than when I had AV maxed out. I'm not going to change it, since I already decided on that build. Usually I'm the first or second highest in dps.

When I use FA, I get to yell out, "Gouge em, Valor!"

Also, Main Ranger is too good; you need to max that for extra damage, since double strafe is so fast and has good damage when it's maxed.
