<wanders back in and stops in his tracks> ;)
Hello. Looks like I have some homework to do.
<slowly reads through the "build" responses, ponders for a moment, then reaches into his backpack and pulls out a tree-trimmer>
Let me see if I understand all of this information.
1) Take the 10 points out of Holy Fire and put them into Holy Shock.
2) Take the 30 points out of Conviction and Salvation and put 15 points each in Resist Cold and Resist Lightning.
3) Fanaticism is retained for its Damage, A/R and IAS boosts.
<quickly counts> Thats only 84 skill points! You're telling me this is going to be a stronger build and save me 3 skill points at the same time? Thats not too shabby. :lol:
Rest assured, by clvl 94, both Cold Resist and Lightning Resist will both be at 20.
<glances toward adeyke> Are my numbers looking better now? I had planned on using Fanaticism as my main aura until situations dictated the need for an element specific attack. Thus explaining my choosing fire. I remember all those "ghosties", everywhere in Hell, being Lightning Immune and Freeze Arrow draining mana, much too fast.
<turns to Assur, a little stunned>There is a "cookiecutter" ranger build? I realize there are other rangers out there, but I didn't realize there was a standard ranger build. Is there a thread to this build somewhere? :o
A little equipment specificity: I have a Goldstrike, a Widowmaker and a "diamonded" WWS. Will these be acceptable NM and Hell bows or should I seek elsewhere?
And a question: Is a Windforce (amazon only) or is it for public possession? This may be a dumb question, but I have never seen a Windforce. I have only heard of and about this mythical bow of dreams. :P
I guess thats it for this go around.
Once again, I want to thank everyone for their support and contributions in helping me get this build right.
