Ahhhh


Theres a lot of that in DDO, remember. Though ultimately that RP is what makes LD so good, insane really on a thrower, due to RoF/enemies hit. its impossible to not have 10 stacks at all times, unless you went afk/soulstoned

Advancing Blows says "On MELEE critical hit" though.

Correct, it does say that.

So I made my Halfling 20 Ranger archer on Lam today.

Wow. Being in LD destiny made a huge difference! 4,000-5,000 hp criticals on rolls of 19 or 20 are really nice!

Over 1,000 HPs and over 1,000 SPs are nice too.

Thanks for the advice all.

Want to build a Dex-based archer (possibly pure Ranger) that should wind up with 9 - 12 sneak attack dice + the extra sneak damage from a Ring of House Avithul (average of 60+ sneak damage at any range with the Deepwood capstone).

I was originally going to go with Shadar-Kai as my race choice but the more I look at it, I strongly considering going for Halfling.

In D&D, small races have to use smaller weapons that do less damage. Is this true in DDO? The answer won't make or break the build but I'd like to make a decision based on all the facts.

Can anyone tell me about any relationship between toon size and weapon damage? Are there any other reasons I should reconsider the Halfling or consider some other race?


Also, regarding Epic Destinies, I like Divine Crusader a lot but I suppose Shiradi should also be considered. Does anyone have any strong feelings about Shiradi for a full-time archer, one way or another? Any other Epic Destiny choices I should consider?


You are horrible at this game.

Not interested in any of KingDingDong's retarded, now-gimped, furyshot builds or any of his other builds, quite frankly.

build 1: trapper

12 wiz, 6 arti, 2 rog (sun elf for int bonuses, tr/heart to ditch the cleric level) every point into int; insightful reflexes, insightful damage, palemaster, arcane archer, running fury of the wild; no fail trapping, lock picking, UMD, self healing high-pre-nerf DPS, useful spells (thought not relying on them) and buffs; an overall fun build that can handle anything.

build 2: overkill

11 ranger, 6 fighter, 3 fvs, elf, arcane archer running fury of the wild.  every point into dex. you have the war priest damage line, the elven racial damage line, and the fighter kensai damage line (all for bows), the weapon meditation buff, the inflame buff, the divine favor spell; all add significant bonuses to damage, fighter feats and sliver flame feats; all add damage bonuses to bows.  this was (pre-nefr) the highest possible DPS build.

build 3: combat medic 1

17 fvs, 2 rog, 1 fighter, elf, arcane archer, fury of the wild.  every point into dex; you're starting with 10 cha and are relying on tomes and gear not to fail your spells, this means that until you reach higher levels, you will not be able to cast some spells available to you; end-game, bitches. 

build 4: combat medic 2

12 cleric, 6 fighter, 2 monk (you guessed it) elf, arcane archer, fury of the wild.  dex build....

i could post alot of builds.  since they gave elf no restrictions on AA, you can play any class, or any combination of classes, and still have full access to the AA tree with absolutely 0 ranger levels.

rangers BTW are fucking gimps.  the only damage bonuses inherent to that class are the favored enemy bonuses: a total of +10 to damage @ level 20. 

with 3 (fucking 3!) levels of flavored hole, you get child of the silver flame (+1 damage)  divine favor spell (+1 damage)  3 tiers of favored weapons (+3 damage) and the inflame buff (+4 damage) for a grand total of +9 to damage!  3 levels of fvs gets you 1 point less damage than TWENTY levels of ranger; niggers!

I've soloed every EE raid in the game with those builds (obviously, not VON, and I generally don't lose 1hp when soloing normal quests on EE; I skate right through.

Oh good, another delusional fantasists.  Do you really think anyone believes all this stupid shit you're trying to claim junior?

It's time for you to cough up some names of your supposed toons, guilds, and at least one person who can back up any of your fairy tales. 


This should be fun, can't wait to see what excuses he tries.
