What are you trying to acomplish? If throwers are so good dps why do you need to prove this so badly? You are the only one angry here, from what we can see per your posts, it's just classic that the angry guuy calls others angry. Ok, throwers do some dps, but it's just inferior to rogue.

Fuck throwers, I hate them. They makes no sense for me. Anything that is terrible on paper 3.5 should be terrible on DDO. That is the only way the game kinda worked before MotU

its funny that people say ignorant things about stuff they don't understand and then get angry about it. Sounds like you run a competent thrower. Whats your class split? For 80 Fort and 70 Will you pretty much have to have Paladin levels.

Oh, that is going to cut deep for poor NotHarharhar who is the unmatched paragon of thrower builds.
That comment will definitely hurt his feels and he'll probably say something really nasty to you.

I like this build, especially for someone who does a lot of EE raiding or soloing, Though I much prefer 3 Monk, which lets your go 14 Rogue for 2 rogue feats, Improved SA, and 2 more rogue SA Die. Of course you can als ojust do 13 Rogue/4 Pallie/3 Monk and get yourself some better healing through pally (Empower Heal, LoH).

All good splits!

Well the DWS does seem to be giving the threat range buff, but the Tempest is not giving the crit multiplier buff to throwing weapons, but ..... get this.  While holding a offhand weapon with core 12 tempest the off hand weapon gets the multiplier buff while any throwing weapon in the main-hand doesn't.

I'm at work and have only been able to muck about a little anyone else get a chance to test for confirmation for or against the crit threat range or multipliers with thrown?

And can you believe they went live with this shit untested? jerks.

Dave,

It's been stated DWS lvl 12 core is not working by the devs, but will fixed in the next patch/hotfix/update.

The tempest core was never meant to work with throwers, and since it's a Multiplier increase, it wouldn't have anyway since multiplier effects haven't ever worked on throwers

I looked at different splits.  I decided on this on due to the extra feats monk gives, 10k stars with stuff lined up kiting with tier 3 tf mortal fear stuff just melts.   I gave up a bit of sneak attack, well more than a bit but I run EE's mainly and still don't need the SA dice that much.  When I get the goggles out of DOJ (btw do they work on ranged? the extra 3 ki gen that is), things will really not like her.

No ki on hit is only melee.

Once you have:

Quiver 8%
lvl 28 Feat 10%
3x primal PL 9%
Ranger DWS T5 20%

You're looking at 47% Standing doubleshot, which is basically equal to 10k, but you can ditch 3 monk levels. You don't get any extra feats for 6 Monk over 2 Monk, since you're level 6 Feat is just 10k. You do get another stance, but it doesn't give you Dex.

SA dice is an enormous amount of damage, esp if you run with good amount of RP (scales 150%) and Imp Deception. Imp SA and another SA dice from Rogue 13 is more damage over time than the difference between 47% Doubleshot and 10k, for sure. Anyway, it's not a huge issue, but 10k is overrated on throwers I think, if you have the PLs. Worrying about ki sucks.

Yeah you make good points.  I am 28, have maxed primal, no quiver but will soon, I'll probably TR her again soon into something like what you are speaking of.  She has like 4-5 more life's to completionist still.  Just wanted the third rogue PL, then we shall see.

Oh I have deception and improved as well.  My toons geared well, just a couple pieces out of DOJ, which I've not been lucky with pulls at all.

Might look at more rgr, going drow, monk, and Pali or rogue in future.  See how it plays out.  I have several tier 3 shurikens and short swords.  Don't want a monkcher bow user.

Looking at going 20 Ranger with Shadar Kai instead of Elf or Drow. One less dex that way but two more Con. Shadar Kai also gives a few Sneak Attack dice which goes nicely wit DWS.
  

Do not try the patience of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger.

We are dreamers, shapers, singers, and makers. We study the mysteries of laser and circuit, crystal and scanner, holographic demons and invocation of equations. These are the tools we employ, and we know many things.

The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

Actually the Devs said the weapons finesse feature isn't working for throwing weapons, happily both core 12's are working fine.

I can see why dave tried tested the tempest core, it would have been interesting to see if it was a oversight they made.

Probably less aggravating in the long run to have a situation where where a crit multp buff doesn't show up on the UI for a throwing weapon, instead of the all to common situation where the crit buff shows up on the UI but doesn't actually work in combat.

So for Turbine thats sort of progress right?  Sad

NP I was a bit mixed up about it for the first couple hours live as well, so it was a good surprise.

But, it is very annoying not to have the dex to dam available at this point, kind of stalling all my investigations.... you know shit we should have been able to do on lamma?

Fucking Vag.

In my defense, there were a lot of newish people asking questions on the thread so it seemed more important to get the proper facts out than score points. When Harhar took it on the chin gracefully it seemed churlish to take cheap shot.



But rest easy knowing that the natural order will return before you know it was ever gone.
