Sword or Dagger?Follow

Yes i am an idiot because i pressed enter thinking that it would take me from the subject line to the body of the paragraph. Sadly, as you can tell, i was mistaken.


Anyway, my question is with a RNG/WAR, would it be a better idea to use a dagger or a sword. I realize that rangers have poor skill with blade, which is why daggers are used mostly by rangers. But seeing as how my sub will be WAR then i should have better skill with swords. So, should i use dagger or sword with RNG/WAR and why?

i definately reccomend against going RNG as your first advamced unless you are an ebayer or have japanese friends willing to throw u a couple mil, which is likely what you will be spending if you want an invite. poorly equipped rangers are a hazard to a PT, and are avoided. but if u do go rng and u do have 1-3 million gil dagger is what you use. 2 reasons: extremely fast TP gain for uber skillchains, and archers knife, which adds ranged accuracy +10 (not sure i think +5 rng attack too?). and anyone that isnt a complete noob knows that RNG rely on DEX and ranged accuracy over anything else, both of which are hella expensive.
also the best subjob for rng is ninja, which 75% of the japanese rangers sub. only problem with ninja is it is just as expensive if not more than RNG.

I agree with this guy .. as a Ranger your main weapon is your bow .. weapons are simply there for the bonuses .. and daggers are alot more heavy on the +AGI +Ranged* bonuses then swords and the Rangers cap Dagger skill is higher then his Swrod skill so he will alos have better skill in that sense ..

about the best sjob being ninja .. well .. yea thats a damn good one .. especially if you can dual wield Archer's Knives along with the fact that nin get a great AGI bonus in their stats ..

But ..

Being ranger is about doing damage .. sjob ninja can't compare to Ranger/Samurai even in the least .. without Weaponskill you'll be hitting like a blackmage or even harder if your totally pimped out with the best gear available .. with your weaponskills rangers can triple the damage of an equal level blackmage sometimes .. /drool "Sidewinder" ...

a level 70 ranger with Samurai sjob will gain more tp per hit and will have the ability to meditate every 5 minutes to gain even more tp EVEN OUT OF COMBAT .. besides sjob ninja gives approxtimatley 6 more AGI(tops) at level 70 then sjob Samurai ... big whoop ... there is so much gear available near the end of a Ranger's career to make even the Elvaan ranger hit like a pro .. not too mention the 3 .. count'em ... 3 accuracy+ passive upgrades that the ranger recieves as he levels up .. which also apply to melee accuracy btw not just ranged..

so if you dont go samurai .. your missing out on the best single target damaging job in the game without competition..

I have seen lv.70 Rangers nail monster for over 1000 damage with sidewinder .. obey the ranger or fall to dust you fools ..

n00b eh? lol i bet u are lv 35 and think u are high level or something stfu n00b. agility is the ability to evade, and dex is the ability to hit, its that simple. then try calling me a noob after u surpass my 45/35 but that aint gonna happen.

Actually Agi is for ranged accuracy too. 2 Agi = +1 Ranged Acc.
This is from a japanese website and hence why most japanese rng have high agi/str and neglect all other stats. :)

LOL, you just got shut down n00b! having a lvl 45 or a lvl 35 character means nothing you high lvl nub. It's what you KNOW that counts, I see morons that are high lvl all the time. Maybe you dont notice it because well... you're a nub. Are you using an Elvaan Ranger? because elves has less acc. than other classes. And oh yea, Rather be consistant with my hits rather than hit 80% of the time and get 1 really good hit than. Hitting mob good, missing bad......... AGI helps hit things..... Dex doesnt. AGI wins! I'm going to be Taru RNG! Fear me 5 inch arrows!
