A BETTER Solo Ranger Build? - Dark and Darker

[@esomn8919]

Hey guys, The game is in a bit of a weird spot at the moment so I'm not too sure what to do, going to be trying some different things whilst waiting for the wipe to see if anything sticks, plenty more content coming when the wipe hits, very excited for it :) Hope you're all doing well and you're enjoying whatever you're up to, whether that's Dark and Darker or something else whilst waiting for the wipe :)

Try weirdo builds like this, it's cool!😊

Chase is underrated. Rogue is a death sentence so being able to know when one is creeping on you is very valuable

[@esomn8919]

Yeah I feel like this loadout is very good for solo, it just felt a bit too close to fighter so my brain was struggling to adapt the playstyle, definitely shouldn't rely on the spear.

[@zachjohnson7422]

I love the feeling of crossbows on ranger. I like to use headshot mastery and ranged weapon mastery for that little bit more damage.

[@Tainted_Delusion]

to anyone playing normals rn due to the testing of the ranked system i would heavily reccomend not using spear mastery and instead using a arming sword and hand crossbow as the low dex with only white gear makes it too slow to be worth The hand crossbow also benefits from crossbow mastery so its great for closer range poking where you dont have time to get a crossbow reload off safely as the hand crossbow has a faster reload

[@esomn8919]

I was actually thinking that could be an interesting one, could even be better with this build, just wasn't sure if it worked, thanks for the info!

21:25 reminder that there is gem spawns on the shelf behind these chests and in the eyes of the ox skull or whatever it is. Seen royals there before.

Glad to see another upload! Thanks for all you do. Ive been struggling now that im forced to play crypts. I have a hard time navigating, and im seeing areas that ive never seen before. Is it an older version? Sometimes i cant find a portal and end up having to go inferno, where i inevitability die lol

[@esomn8919]

Thanks very much! As far as I'm aware it's one of the same 4 crypts layouts that there were before, so it should be the same but I'm not 100% sure.

I'm personally more of a crypts fan, but I've also grown to like ruins. But if they keep the three tier system I'd like to see an extra matchmaking for crypts. So when you go down from ruins you would queue up for others going to crypts. Then going to inferno would just be who is left in that second mixed lobby from crypts. I think that would help fill In the gap from ruins to crypts. Noone wants to play pve on crypts.

If solo, take off advance hearing, turn up your headset, & put in the other reloading perk. Unless the devs changed it, both reloading perks grant the crossbow 100% reload speed.

[@kuzokuro727]

other reload perk only affects bows and not crossbows now

Great video

[@beebisboy4159]

I would try and build max pdr and health roles on items to make this viable

[@yahmeskhan]

Wouldn't say it's meta changing but interesting to see the versatility of the ranger. Hopefully wipe is soon, desperately need more content. Any plans yet on getting a discord up?

the cheese spot for the berzerker is on the rez shrine
