I keep getting insults because I didn't get Arrow Storm right off the bat. I decided to get Warg Strike because I wanted the dog first. I know its slower killing and leveling but I'm enjoying seeing my dog auto attack.

I haven't even played for a month yet and some people call me, "moron, dumb, etc". I explain to them I really wanted the dog to auto attack first but then the insults come as soon as I mention that. I've been told I should reset (which I just found out recently) to fix my build.

Ever since I became Ranger I don't advertise for party I just go kill slowly in the nogg TI. Sometimes I get a random invite and I let them know I don't have AS and they are pretty cool with it. But sometimes there is always 2-3 people who will tell me I'm a fool for going my route.

Is it so wrong in the build route im going? I only planned to get Warg Strike Level 5 then work on getting AS, then work on the other Warg skills.

You're the one wasting more arrows because you're ctrl+clicking stuff instead of spamming one massive aoe.

Why they getting mad instead of you? lol

[Randomititiy]

Nothing wrong with it but some people think that everything has to be done a certain way and if it isn't that it isn't the right way

But oh well let them and do what you want

[SakuraMazaki]

I went for Warg strike first too~ ;3

Haha, true enough. I'm just ticked off because people tell me I need to do it this way and that way. Being called an idiot several times is getting to me.

You know when people in a turn in party complain about others not doing their job?

[asayuu]

And if you use the warg you will be more effective at WOE than those bunch of arrow stormers. People is dumb because they valorize a big aoe than half-decent damage.

Though the burst you get from Arrow Storm is sexy. Getting 20k bursts already on level 100/7 [storm 1] makes you have a great potential to kill.

My build is supposed to be Storm (1) > Camou (5) > Storm (10) > "something" Trap (5). Not planning to go ASPD way because I plan to be PVM only on ranger.

[simca437]

they r insulting u as they cannot just sit n watch u killing all,which they would have if u had as!!
so ignore them,as long as u get any party itz fine!!

[Dawei]

Lol don't worry people just think if u are not a conventional build you are an idiot. In reality this is your character play it how you wish. Yah arrow storm is a powerful lvling skill but it's also boring as heck you spend the rest of your lvling life moving....arrow storm.....mob...arrow storm. Also if you don't get a White wing set arrow storm is not that strong. So stick to your build enjoy your character and if you get bored get yourself a wing set and reset. Most of my characters have unconventional skills but mastering these skills can prove to be a very fun class.

[IronPlushy]

Typical RO hypocracy, vets say you can be innovative with builds instead of copying builds already posted, but when you do diverge from posted builds they get all pretentious.

[Kolma]

It's probably just the usual crowd who worship Gramps and his ability to port you to monster mosh pits that are furious with you, they just want you to kill all the stuff so they can get 'lolol bst xp lolololol' faster.

Monks get this treatment as well with Mental Strength, even though it does make you nigh invulnerable you end up moving like a turtle and you can't do anything other than auto-attack, TI parties most often just move around a lot so I hardly see the point in being xXxZefirofxXx's Elunium Fishing Hook.

Now if you want to hold the attention of an MvP that you can't just drop in (almost) one Lex'd Guillotine Fist, then Mental Strength makes this a breeze, just be sure to get some other people to help out since you won't be doing much damage with all the auto-attacks and Raging Trifecta Blows.

I'd go with storm 6 and up the warg after - storm 6 because that's where the AOE hits its (almost) max of 9x9.

If non-TI levelling (which I do a lot of), warg helps because you'll always get that odd one or two mob scenario which isn't worth the effort or SP cost of ASing, yet they're there for the killing.

Sure, it burns a couple more arrows but your exp gain per hour is boosted by what, 20% instead of skipping them?

Don't worry bro, I did the same thing, first skill I got on my first 3rd class was cart tornado. I wanted to make a build around it until I found out that it has a stupidly long after cast delay that isn't reduced by attack speed....SERIOUSLY ITS A SUPER CART REVO IT SHOULD FOLLOW CART REVO MECHANICS...but I digress. Its trial and error, but more importantly its what is most fun. F the haters

[Pril]

o-o Arrow storm's aoe increases to 11x11 at rank 10. The difference is quite noticable in solo-levelling.

[Cubical]

If you like what your doing keep doing it. Players often mock things they don't understand. However if you simply pick up the loots you can make up for money lost to arrows.

Players need to become more creative and think outside of the box in terms of builds, though unfortunately your limitations are usually your gear/skill tree.

[Kadnya]

At least you didn't do this:



Yus, I wanted to trap(post balance) on my ranger while mounted on a warg without having warg ride. That was slow leveling

[Ralis]

At the end of the day it's up to you what you do and what you listen to. People can insult you all they want, just ignore them. So long as you're having fun playing the game, that's really all that matters.

[TheSquishy]

As long as your character does what you want it to.

I have a baby battle AB which I personally think i was a tard for making but damn...it's fun.

And quite frankly... the fun is all that matters


Heh maybe i'll actually trans a class now that it's not the slow prerenewal rates. on the other hand prerenewal meaning years ago on loki I got to meet and chat with a lot of people while outside of payon dungeon Spent more time chatting then leveling.

[T3chnowitch]

Why do you care if someone else doesn't like your character? Does their dislike affect your ability to play and enjoy the character any? It shouldn't. All that really matters is that you build your character the way you want, to do what you want it to do.

[EvilTongs]

Respect to you. Those idiots are just confused because they're so used to other people 1 shot killing everything for them. I did the same with a ninja in pre renewal. Went shadow slash build which was painstakingly slow exp compared to magic or throw. I also have a magic and throwing ninja but the most fun I had was with the admittedly crappier build.

Cart Tornado is "that one skill" you have no damn reason to max. Level 1 is the best DPS, because can be spammed as fast as a 180aspd Rolling Cutter.

Cart Tornado is very more effective than some other things, but as the damage looks low, people don't respect it. My genetic using HF +0 was hitting 3k on each hit of Tornado 1, with cart full and remodeling lv5, and with only 100 str. I like the skill, and people call me stupid because I'm not pure cart cannon either. Should had brought a pure cart tornado build though instead of hybrid. 110 str, 80 agi, 50 vit and 50 dex... could work.
