you make ranger seem really OP and also i didnt know the power of spiral arrow and crippling arrow. keep up the good work

[@Nihil0.0]

Ranger is pretty powerful. This was a Gold Forged Reinforced Longbow, putting my attack at around 1800. If I put a Revenant Wail gold forged, I would be sitting at 3400 probably. That really puts Ranger at OP. Even greater power comes with the use of Blast Arrows. There is a reason many people farm Daimon and Death with Ranger. Also, the sleep effect on enemies greatly increases damage. While they are sleeping, you get preemption and knockdown boosts. Crippling arrow is very awesome, I love that skill. It is very good on a Ranger pawn too. They will land those in important locations, if they have good beastiary knowledge.

[@lechristine1372]

Crippling arrow also good for assisting doubling the damage of pawns when they hit a particular part of the enemy, . . .

[@johhnyb8764]

That Garm went Flying. What a lovely sight to see. "Crippling arrow - my favorite skill in this entire game" More than Instant Reset?

[@Nihil0.0]

Well, the skills are different, or for different reasons. Reset and Kisses are must have skills, while I have daggers, and Exodus slash and Pommel bash are must haves while I am Warrior. Crippling is an appreciation skill. I am not a fan of Periapts. I am especially not a fan of pausing the game, and POOF! I now have double damage. I love the skills that provide a boost to stats, because there is risk to get the boost. You have to charge the skill. And if I want the boost, then it will take up a skill slot, that's consequence. The only consequence of periapts is they take up inventory. Crippling arrow is taken a step further, with giving both Magic and Strength, but only in a certain location. It's not just a flat 20% boost, no matter what. You have to earn it, and it still takes thought and skill. Not just pause, and POOF! I hate that shit. I wish they didn't stack.

[@sergejslocmelis4687]

I hate the concept of periapts too. An OP weapon or rare enchantment is fine because your worked for it. There's just no smarts to a periapts.

[@tomthestone1470]

Small but very important tip, Gamble is dependent on the amount of stamina spent, not the weapon exclusively. Liquid Vim makes the skill worthless as a result.

[@jeremesmith9266]

The REAL question is, how does the Ranger fit all those arrows in his quiver? That thing is bottomless!

[@christophercollins3632]

I did my first playthrough as fighter, and a couple as Warrior. I get the majority of augments, I don’t min/max, and it works pretty well. I wasn’t attracted to the bow users. But I decided to give myself a challenge to get out of my comfort zone, and you know what? I’m having fun as a Ranger! I’m also aware of Nihil0.0’s Great Gamble testing that demonstrates how high stamina was more important than good bows, and periapts. So I’m min/maxing for change, and at level 29 now, it’s been all Ranger, for max stamina. I don’t have a good plan for how to level my build yet. But I’ve got Nihil0.0’s advice to have good magick and defense if solo. I was hoping to try my first solo attempt. My last two playthroughs have been just me and my main pawn. But I can’t get over my hoarding of items. And it’s just fun to fight alongside my pawn. Besides making a great mule. But I really would like to try a solo game sometime.

Body Binder functions similarly to grabbing and restraining with warrior classes, I think you can only do it if the enemy is already in a stagger state. If not, it helps a lot. It probably depends a lot on how much stagger you have also.

[@sword7166]

Well strider is probably more powerful overall, unless you're seriously focusing on ranged combat

[@erimarkov3885]

What would be an optimal build for a Ranger in your opinion? Like, level progression and the like.

[@Nihil0.0]

There a re a few ways, and none are wrong. You could do Strider to Lv 10 or 15, then Warrior to Lv20 or 30, then Assassin to Lv 30 or 40, and then Ranger. With this route you can get Warrior's augment Clout, and Assassin's augment Autonomy or Bloodlust. or you could do Strider to LV10, get the augments Clout (Warrior) and Acuity (Sorcerer) and then go Ranger for the rest. Ranger gets the highest Stamina growth per level, and Assassin gets the highest strength stat per level. Ranger gets fair strength and magic stats per level, so if you like playing Ranger, then just be Ranger. But, get some augments from the other vocations, because those matter more than the stat gains. Here is my 100% Ranger run. Here I did Strider to LV10 and then Ranger. With no augments and no stats from the other vocations. So 100% Ranger. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mZmspKKafc5mi6s&t and here is the stat planner.

I have a question that I'm sure you've answered a million times - In your schematics videos you mention ''usual boosting augments'' in the augment section of the videos. Are these augments that you typically want for every vocation? I'm currently playing Ranger and trying to get some good augments going. :)

No worries Bruno, I can understand. Our stats mean nothing. Absolutely nothing. The weapons provide us with 50% of our danage. The augments about 25% our stats are less than 25% of our total output. Also the Magic Archer skill Magic Rebalancer adds 20% boost to magic attack. This skill can be used 4 times, basically double damage for 1 minute. Also this video below I show a 190 leveled Sorcerer vs a 190 leveled Magic Archer with same weapons and same augments. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hpuYpmZ8YquGm6M

interesting...didn't know trajectory wasn't really worth using, seems like 10fold, spiral and deathly arrow is a decent skill load for longbow. That crippling arrow trick is really nice, but I have a feeling I won't be able to pull off the combo very often since aiming can be tricky to get a hang of. Then again....switching arrows is kind of a pain, so maybe 10fold, deathly and crippling instead of spiral?

New to Dark Arisen, and id just like to drop my 2 cents here. There are those that say MA is the best class , others say its MK thats mostly down to preference really , but for me its an undeniable fact that Ranger LITERALLY TRIVIALIZES the entirety of BBI dont believe me? Well lets go through boss encounters in BBI , Undead dragon? - use dire Arrow/reapers Arrow to knock it out of the sky and and use Hundred kisses to decimate its hp , Death? -4 conquerors periapts plus blast arrows plus tenfold flurry preety much grounds Death in a stunlock same tactic applies to Dark Bishop and Daimon Eliminators? All you need is 4-5 petryfying arrows whilst using spiral/Corkscrew Arrow elder ogres and garms ? Same tactics with garms with ogres just put them to sleep then either great Gamble or dire Arrow to finish it off.

[@Nihil0.0]

Strider to lv10, Ranger to lv100 and then any yellow to lv200 will get the 4965 stamina (highest possible) but the Savior ring has 500 stamina, and some cloaks, and then augments can boost 100.

I would really appreciate if you made an ultimate setup for each class showing your favourite weapons armour and skills

[@Nihil0.0]

I could. I just feel like it's me stating my opinion. And my opinion may not work well for everyone. I do use my preferred skills when I do runs, like in the 100% runs. I don't like overpowered weapons much, or at least when I have all of the stat boosting augments. I wear armor based on the looks, and don't care about the stats they provide. The Level3 BBI armor has the best stats and has the best debilitation resistances. But, again I don't like to be overpowered. With 100% resistance to so many debilitations, then there is no risk. I can carelessly and recklessly go about and get hit 100 times and never become Blind or Petrified or Cursed. I could do a "Best of" or "my favorite" skills video and have a collage of them. I will roll it around in my head and see if anything comes to mind. For weapons and gear, really what is considered the best, is the best the game has to offer. All of the top Level3 BBI weapons and armor provide the highest damage. I like how the Kunai daggers look. I like Iraklis for Warrior, because it has it's unique pro and con. The Hatchet for Fighter is stressful, because it can leave you with no stamina in a bad situation. You see the pattern? I don't like the usual stuff that everyone would strive for, because it has high damage. I go for the weapons that create a little mini game with it's unique abilities. Don't take this as a shutdown. I am always open to ideas and suggestions. So, if you have anything else to add, please let me know. Maybe I am missing something in my synopsis when I think of videos like these.

Also you don't need crippling arrow to kill a downed elder ogre. One deathly shot to the face with a half decent bow if it sleeps will do unless you have some asshole pawns that wake it up. Spiral arrow is much more useful to have to apply sleep in the first place and to also get rid of garms with 2 petrify arrows.

[@Repetz94]

@@Nihil0.0 i thought it did matter only for weapon buffs not for enchanted weapon itself. i mean if i have like scalding razors (example 150 phys and 150 spell damage), if i have 300 magick or 250, does the magik damage changes? because if not, if i am not a mystic knight or a mage/sorcerer/magic archer, where is the point for me in levelling up my magic stat?

[@Nihil0.0]

The only reason, the only time it matters on a pure red or pure yellow vocation, is when fighting a ghost, like wraith, spectre, phantom. But only to about 350 innate magic, anything more is not applied. But for any other enemy the innate magic is not applied. When a pawn buffs us with an element their magic stat is applied. I am not sure if our innate mag is applied with a pawn's buff though. Never tested it.

@@blakedanoob3144yeah I beat the bitterblack isle for the second time 😁 I had hard times at the beginning cause the enemies had many physical defense. But after getting the lvl2 weapon it was much better. I was with lvl 70 in bitterblack. But I had the feeling that my magic pawns made so much more dmg in the main game Story and in bitterblack

[@duypham-nt1mp]

Strongest class the game you can change it whenever you like just need 500 blast arrows and every thing can solve every easy

I'm going to really get into dragons dogma once it comes out on switch and I want to main ranger. What's the best pawn to make to compliment a ranger?

[@Nihil0.0]

I would say Fighter pawn. You stay distance, and Fighter gains aggro to keep them away from you

[@andrewhelms6249]

@@Nihil0.0 Awesome! Thank you! Can't wait to finally get into DD on switch ^__^ any beginner tips for the early game?

[@julesmcgrules3860]

Fighter, no question. They can block damn near anything with the proper setup, stamina free, and can dish out some impressive damage as well. I'd say fighter is one of the top vocations in the game in the right hands, and that's saying something considering it's a 'basic' vocation. It's incomparable when it comes to defense, and a pack of fighters doing nothing but dragon's maws while perfect blocking everything that even sneezes at them is a sight to behold. Not quite related, but I want to ask the author his opinion of the pioneer inclination. I'm personally a huge fan of pioneer/utilitarian for practically any vocation, but it's best used by pawns with high overall knowledge. They act more independently and don't feel the need to periodically check in with the arisen. It really makes for some remarkable results.

[@Nihil0.0]

I love pioneer, especially for Ranger and Strider. If I am Sorcerer and pawn is Fighter I like Pioneer, but if I am also Fighter, then guardian.

[@bondrewdthenovel3598]

10fold is literally a shotgun. Rip and Tear.

[@nolanmcnair9741]

Nice man. I haven't tried Ranger too much yet. Will have to after I master Warrior

[@Nihil0.0]

Plenty of time.

[@mattd3826]

How did you nesrly take an elder ogre out with one shot?? Does sleeper arrow really add THAT big of a damage boost? I had no idea!

[@Nihil0.0]

Yep. Sleep is a massive damage boost.

[@mattd3826]

Wow I never knew this!!!! I am gonna start a replay again ranger build :) does sleep arrow work on almost every enemy?

[@justinisenberg1841]

I understand that ranger seems to be a fan favorite but to me it just seems so underwhelming. It's "Strength" is it's longbow which do indeed deal more damage than short bows BUT force you to move, aim, and fire more slowly and their skills? I feel like they require WAY to much stamina than what they are worth, I mean, almost every ranger skill is something that Striders and Assassins have and although their skills are weaker versions of the ranger's theirs require far less stamina so it feels like quantity wins out over quantity and, of course, it's just more fun being able to use skills more often. You can also just make a 'Sniper' out of Assassin with Lyncean Shot (Less zoom with less stamina required) and being able pull up your short bow and fire arrows faster seems to out dps a Ranger's longbows (definitely the case while using wind/gale harness). Fun fact! Striders have an innate speed bonus while climbing monsters as well as slower stamina drain while Assassins are harder to be knocked off and Rangers? Well... nothing... Because their intended to be more of a 'ranged' class. Just my 2 cents on Ranger but I do understand the role-playing aspect... Legolas or Robin Hood lol.

[@julesmcgrules3860]

If the ranger didn't have instant reset available as well as a solid if not basic dagger pool, they'd be a lot less viable. They're high risk/high reward, but still nimble enough to hold their own in close quarters. Much of this game relies on a bit of strategy in picking your spots; especially with a blue vocation.

[@KaiKrimson56]

Honestly, I wish Helm Splitter carried over from Strider into Ranger, then the class would be perfect.

[@julesmcgrules3860]

@@KaiKrimson56 it'd be overpowered. I've found that the basic dagger skill set along with dodge roll are more than sufficient if you know how to use them. They're big strength is from mid to long range, but they're decent enough in close quarters.

[@LyndonNLeeming22]

What is your ranger wearing there? Your fashion dogma game is strong man 😩

[@Nihil0.0]

Thanks Lyndon. I am not positive, but Farseeer's cap, Leather Jacket, Fine over the knee boots, Chainmail shirt, and Schalor's cape. I am a victim of Fasion Dogma. I take defense loss to look good.

best vocation

[@Nihil0.0]

Ranger is a beast :)

[@Igor-eb4ov]

dude such a helpful video

[@Nihil0.0]

Awesome Igor. Thanks for your praise. I tried very hard on these schematics videos.

[@cruselove]

ranger r fun to use head shot will knock them down or stager the enemy i almost killed a dragon with ranger n i was even low lvl at the time.

[@Nihil0.0]

Yep, Ranger is a fun one. When you can land that headshot just in time, that's a nice feeling.

[@IDKGeorge123]

DD is a great game but I have a few gripes, the lack of ability synergy for one. You cannot main a weapon type if two are available in a vocation and you can only have 3 abilities at once. Now anyone who’s played knows that a lot of encounters you have require a specific style / element to fight and a lot of the time you aren’t at a disadvantage your straight out unable to do anything. Now saying that, if you do manage to find those 3 abilities that you like and work well then the combat becomes meat and potatoes, the same bland rotation over and over and over because it’s the only thing that works. And half the abilities are completely situational and if you want to prepare for a fight you have to walk alllllllll the way to grand Soren to switch them. The exploration is fun but the combat wasn’t well thought out in my opinion and it’s just that an opinion.

[@Scuma01]

Lvl 20 ranger on hard is kinda.. well..ouch

[@Nihil0.0]

Ranger is a stamina heavy vocation, so when you are low level, you do notice it. But the single shot arrow is pretty viable, with high knockback

[@Scuma01]

@@Nihil0.0 Yeap. I noticed. But.. when fighting 12 snow harpies. Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy the knowledge you share but starting from scratch with upgraded equipment is well lets say.. lol

[@Scuma01]

Ate xbox and PC seperate platforms in capcom?

[@Nihil0.0]

Snow Harpies aren't too bad. Get the Scalding Razors and land jump light attack. This will instantly catch their wings on fire, and they will be sitting ducks for a good 10 seconds. Ummmm, I am not sure about the platforms, if any share

[@lechristine1372]

Yes Sir actually that rusted long bow and Chilling razors are my favorite items, . . . And I dont care if Im weak well Ranger is the most boring for other gamers, but this is the class that should never be touched by enemies cuz they delete enemies from a far, . . .

[@yourecompletelyrightbut4677]

*Laughs in posh British accent*

[@MetalHead-zb9yv]

o yes my fav class. fighter from 1-10. then assassin from 11-200 the damage is broken and then ranger with blast arrows will down right take any boss/elite down in less then few sec.

[@Nihil0.0]

Ranger is super fun. A deadly vocation.

[@ThiagoCRocha-fh6lg]

so thats how it fells to be OP

[@Nihil0.0]

Well, it goes much further with Ranger. Revenant Wail + Blast arrows and 10Fold would be overoveroverpowered.

[@madjawa3058]

Add 4 Conqueror's Periapts to what Nihil said and your bow may as well be the middle finger of GOD!!!!

[@malataur]

Nope, that's a different arrow. But we don't talk about that one... :-)

That's true! I forgot about that one. LOL
