OK I won't abuse you like I aught... But, here is the long and the short of why more Items are created for the upper levels... 1st Incentive to get to those levels has to be high it is A LOT of work, 2nd In the upper levels it becomes almost as much about versatility in gear and look as anything |

Rangers are at the same skill level as warriors with archery, except they have a discipline at level 55. This discipline is called Trueshot. It has been nerfed essentially out of existence.
Archery is a costly wasteful burdensome skill. It costs huge amounts of pp to get the skill up. Increa |

It's not bad for the folks that missed out on the first time around in Sleeper's. It is WAY underpowered for where it comes though, and definitely a disappointment. A good bit more difficult to get than primal I'd say. |

Your primary should definately be low delay gear, Wu if you're poor, or if you have the cash a Jade Mace. However your offhand is a little different. Both have advantages and disadvantages, and if you get right down to it, either one will serve you well. Personally I dont like KD, but most peopl |

INT/WIS over 200 does yield a hugely small amount of mana.... HOWEVER!
While with 200 WIS on a cleric, you may have at level 50 (random number) 2000 mana, let's say that each WIS point after gives only 5 instead of 10 mana.... you've got 55 more WIS points till cap. That means, basically, you'll |

Yes, archery does have its uses..especially on PvP servers.
You would think that the damage done by bows is minimal to worry about on PvP, but it has a slight advantage...it OUT-RANGES spellcasters. And spellcasters dont have enough HPs to take 30+ damage shots that they cant cast against + any cr |
