Having the 512 MB is great because you get to use all the graphic upgrades designed for Luclin. Also I have noticed that my load time increased greatly when I went from 256 to 512.
In terms of the games performance while playing I have not noticed any difference between 256 and 512. I have alway |

I've found that if you like to solo, you really can spend a while on Velious still pulling in good xp. Once Dire Wolves aren't giving you much xp anymore, move on to Mammoths in EW. I was pulling in a good half blue per kill, and since they're animals, you can fear kite them. I don't like to solo mu |

Does Call of Sky affect Bow Hits? I have had it proc several times while meleeing but I don't recall it procing on a bow shot. Perhaps not since bow shots are non-melee? It is nice that it will proc on a miss, only problem is when I am working 2HB with my shovel and it procs for 35. That would h |

the Ranger guild is, facing the bank in Kelethin...go up the ramp to your left..then down the ramp to your right and the large buiding there is the Ranger guild. To train you points see the NPC in the back of the building, target him and right click, this should allow you trin your points. |

The ripened Heartfruit is used in the foraging section of the Druid and Ranger Epic quests, Unless you are ready for your epic, I suggest you just destroy it for now. By the time you are ready for your Epic you will need every spare slot in the bank and on your person you can spare. Once you are rea |

Call of Sky doesn't affect bows... but it does proc off of your fists if you aren't wielding any weapons.
I have the same problem, I've never had more than 500pp in my bank at a time (I'm a mad fletcher). HGs can be kinda hard, I can take one down with a lot of effort and a lot of arrows. Time |

Your off hand is a good place to put those less skilled weapons while training. You might look at buying several weapons for different skills instead of one for a skill that is probably maxed already.
Perhaps a Crystal fiber or BALS plus a Blackjack and Dragon Dirk. Always nice to keep up all y |

An Icy Blade might be something worth looking into, too. RNG only piercer that's fast and has a proc of Shock of Frost(i think?) to go with whatever yer primary is.

A few answers.
I myself have always put weapons ahead of armor. After all, even the best armor in the world won't save you if you can't hit the mob. You said you are making good pp, but you didn't say -how- good so I will make a few assumptions.

Don't bother with banded. For the price you'd pay for a full suit of banded you can get some magic armor pieces with a bit less AC and some nifty stat boosts. Head to EC once you get about 100 plat or so and wait for auctions. Some nice peices are the Lockjaw Tunic, Turtleshell Helm and Bracer of |

Two ways of getting money. You can fear kite mammoths for tusks, after you're 30th it's easy and you don't become as encumbered with SoW and Str buffs.
