Ranger rework

[Templar_James]

Fair enough, but tbh with 15 seconds of speed, I won't be able to chase through a slow, backflip and a root lol. One thing to keep in mind though, the server designs classes based on 1/150 player stability, they do not account for lag and nor should they.

True true look at changes now tell me if you think it is fair

Good post. I like the trap and backflip skills, hopefully somebody with influence takes note of this thread.

Still think ice trap may have too long a cool down, with arrow repel and backflip, a decent ranger should be able to kite. The ice trap should be panic mode. I'd say a minute cool down would be fine.

So you want a class that has an AoE Root with sick mobility, and that they deal 200 damage per hit with an arrow, no thanks.

 

[Hexirious]

No class has a weapon that does over 125 which is what a ranger does with each shot if your bad then ranger isn't your class if you can hit 4/5 shots then you are the strongest damage dealing class in game

... nvm ...

165 not 200

This design has way too many escape/movement abilities in my opinion very few classes would be able to catch this.

Why don't we just lower the current damage of rangers and give it armor penetration? Just a small idea.

Well I think you could take away the forcepush/arrow repel and it would be a good class and also I just said that the class should have a few of these moves to help them out

So just make them lose to wizards even more then they are? Or well actually I don't know if they would lose to wizards/caster classes but I think they do

 

[Multis_Revenge12]

They already do 1-2 hearts WHEN casters wear armor.. Just saying rangers can never beat armored classes Palladin/Dreadknight and such.

Go pay your $15 to blizzard each month and play the hunter class exactly how you described it.
Otherwise you are looking at copyright lawsuits.

Please have original ideas.

Go invent ur own words to say then, all things are base on an ordinary thought or item, so don't say these lbs of things.

Perhaps you are right , but this is not at all what a ranger is. It is devolving a great character concept down to a pvp machine. Hero crafthas the right idea of what a ranger should be (though maybe not entirely fleshed out yet). But turning it into the equivalent class from wow is definitely a step in the wrong direction. I for one do enjoy pvp but the reason I am drawn to hero craft is because the classes have pvp and pve elements to them. I absolutely love abilities like forage. It really does make you feel like you are role playing a class and not just a dps number generating machine.

I am just focusing on the point that all skills are based on either reality or something that already need made.

But that's the beauty of minecraft, blank canvas. We have the opportunity to create all new better ideas. Not follow down the road of a slowly dying game.

Well I am saying u should not harass other players by coping other games skills and re create the effects.

Ah Thomas ever the moral compass. You and I shall have great fun on these forums. Though I believe you miss typed what you were trying to say, your msg is clear and you are correct. Let's steer this conversation in the right direction.

What can be done to improve the ranger class? I for one believe that taming the dog effect is kind of weak. Correct me if I am wrong but the dogs statistics are weak vs more powerful monsters and players. Assuming it attacks them.why not boosts its fighting abilities with the ranger?

Another point which is somewhat addressed with forage, but since a ranger is a master of survival in the wilderness he should be able to heal himself in some way.

Thirdly being a master of the wildrness and considering next to nothing is done with the fishing pole, a tool used for collecting food from nature, he could have some sort of function with it.

First I never said that the skill he suggested is good or not, I am just saying that it is not good to judge people on what they are referring. And soon I will get some skills suggested for ranger.
