This will help you shape the type of Sharpshooter you wish to be.Įach Weapon type has different bonuses or penalties (some have none). Be sure to study the different Ranged Weapon types on the Wiki, and what their Modal Abilities are. Since these bonuses only apply to Ranged Weapons, players choosing this Subclass will most certainly be using one, and all that’s left is to decide which type you want. Sharpshooters hit a bit harder, but shoot a bit slower and have less Deflection than other Rangers. Bonus Penetration (+1) when attacking targets 4m or closer. Choose this Subclass if you absolutely know you’ll be using a Ranged Weapon.īonus: Bonus Hit to Crit conversion (15%) when attacking targets greater than 4m away. They take their time when firing, hitting a bit harder than your standard Ranger, at the expense of slightly lower Recovery Time and less Deflection. Sharpshooters favor Ranged Weapons above of all other types. Try using the Pistol Modal, Rapid Reload for enhanced attack speed. Since Rangers have the Gunner passive, that further reduces Reload time with these weapons, there is a natural synergy here. The Bleak Walkers Subclass gives increased Damage with this Ability, as seen in the photo.Ĭhanters work well if you use Firearms or a Crossbow, because they can reduce their Reload and Recovery Time with them. This Subclass is suited for players who want to play a Ranger but don’t want a Companion, or for those who want one but without the worry of Bonded Grief.įlames of Devotion can be used from any range, making it great for Rangers. The downside is that this costs Bond to do so, though you summon very quickly.

Animal Companion cannot be healed (Unable to learn both Heal Pet and Revive Pet abilities).īonded Grief gives you a penalty to Might, Resolve and Accuracy and occurs when your Companion dies during combat, normally.

They do not suffer from Bonded Grief like other Rangers, but must spend Bond to summon it.
Ghost Heart Rangers prefer the freedom and flexibility that comes from summoning their Animal Companion on demand. A huge aspect of playing a Ranger is their Animal Companion, and your Subclass plays a large role in determining how you will best use it.

This is similar to the Fighter’s Discipline or the Barbarian’s Rage.Įach Animal Companion has its own bonus, and knowing what these are helps determine how you will play your Ranger. The amount of Bond they have will increase when they gain a Power Level, allowing them to use more powerful Abilities, and other Abilities more often. Not surprisingly, Bond is the resource of Rangers, and it is what they will spend on Active Abilities in combat.
