An Easy way to tell if your maxed on your skill level before you hit 21st is to go to the ranger guild trainers and clik on em. You can see the numeric value for your skill. If you haven't reached 45 yet just stack up on arrows you fletch snare a blue or lt blue mob and kite it with your bow. Or get |

If you want to raise your archery as fast as possible shoot red mobs. The higher the mobs level the faster your combat skills go up.
Just find a group in another zone who're hunting stuff that's red to you and ask if you can shoot arrows at it. Most groups woln't mind, and since you're shooting |

Try the Tiger Raptors in WL for some exp. You can fear kite them along the zone edge for decent exp. Plust you can bind just inside Kael or SS for short corpse runs if, Tunare forbid, you got mobbed by adds. |

I don't know what you were thinking Kemen but you cannot make a bow that way.
The cheapest stave available is the hickory bow staff, and it cannot be planed. Depending on your fletching skill (please, tell me you have a fletching skill) the lowest delay bows, and thus the best practice bows are a |

My strategy, since i gained Grasping Roots, is to root the mob.. then fill it with arrows... when root breaks, then make decision to do it again, or close and melee....
However only do this when in a fairly wide open area and not much to worry about adds. Also only do it when soloing. Usually t |

Is there a damage bonus for bows? My trusty Trueshot (20/45) hit occasionally on a crit for 44(once 54 while hawkeyed) but I regularly hit for 53 with my BABS (24/39) with an occasional 79. My archery skill is at 175 while 2HS is 180. I am wondering if archery is worth forcing increase or should |

Dual Wield vs. Double Attack |

Everybody says Dual Wield is the best skill for a Warrior to learn. But doesn't Double Attack serve the same purpose, and allow you to keep a hand free to hold a shield? Can Dual Wield and Double Attack happen at the same time, effectively giving you four strikes per round (double for each weapon) |

Hi. I just purchased the expansion Lucin, and if you have 256mb you can run it pretty well. However youll have to turn off a couple of features, and you can only display 15 of the new modles. That kinda pissed me off, so I got another 256 for a total of 512. It runs very nice now and I can turn o |

I've got a 35 on SZ - thought that 1H w/ dual was best until I got my 2H up. Also depends on what weapon you have. I have found that I can do more damage with my 2H and the delay isn't bad. During the delay I kick - doesn't do much but make you feel as if you are actually doing something during t |

You can Double Attack WITH the weapon in the offhand, when i was playing my Pally and grouped with my WAR friend (CoF and twin Lammy's) he was dishing out 4 or so hits with a (teeny) break between hits, now he got 5 attacks from kicking sometimes, but that takes a lot longer than 19 delay with CoF h |

First, get orc fang earring, not the ones suggested above. they have better stas, and are pretty cheap.
Also, might want to look into a set of crafted guantlets. They have nice ac, and add +5 str. Will take your entire 150pp if u are lucky.
With a good group, you could probably camp bonecrack |

My archery is at 202 right now. And it's been SO long since I made a bow that I probably did get mixed up on what the planing tool would work on. I refuse to work on anything less than Elm, and then only if a guildie is DESPERATE not to spend the extra plat for Darkwood or </drool> shadewood |

Arrows and Dex will add more damage to your bow hits and crits. Using Bow of the Huntsman with 122 dex and 8 damage arrows I can get crits in the low 70's. Using damage 3 arrows I can only get crits in the upper 40's. When I had a chanter cast the Werewolf spell on me I could get crits with 8 dam |

Hm... My AC is 412 without a shield, and my shield also provides pretty hefty magic resistance. That's pretty low comparatively, isn't it?
Do you use double attack with your 2H weapon? |
