Ranged?Follow

Should warriors get something to draw monsters in? Every class but us have one, and every class but us and the paladins do damage while doing it. Usually, it's not that bad, but when you need to fight a boos thats ur lvl, but it has 3 mobs around it, instead of using ur ranged on it, I have to wait until I'm a higher lvl. And I really hate it.

Try equipping bullets instead of only using your gun as a statslot maybe?

At least warriors have the ability to single target pull, pally's have to use Avengers Shield which will hit and pull 3 of those mobs.

Terathos,

firstly, please try to avoid fancy colors... it makes it tad tough to read against the backrounds.

secondly, warriors can used ranged weapons for pulls... but guns need bullets, bows need arrows, crossbows need bolts.

if you are lucky enough to find a good thrown weapon, then you dont need to occupy an extra slot on your bag and dont have to worry about ammo.

you will note, that even with a fast weapon, you will fire one shot and the mob will be on you... hence weapon speed is not that important...

important only when you do those timed pulls... then you should be familiar with your ranged weapon speed.

find a weapon that gives you stats you need as per type of warr you are.

Actually, if you backpedal after the first shot you can often get a second one in before the mob reaches you :) It's barely worth it, but it's a habit for me now.

That's a good habit to get into. As much threat as possible on a target.

Which is why I liked having slow ranged weapons that hit for higher amounts of damage, if I only got 1 shot in, at least it was a good hit.

You can sometimes tell a good warrior tank by his ranged combat skill. Back before BC came out, in ZG our MT (other than myself) had to take a 15 minute break to run around being happy because he capped his xbow skill with one of the pulls.

And now I have 348/350 xbow and 342/350 guns...
