It’s actually really interesting seeing g you switch to ranger. As a Druid main this season i definitely can tell the fighter nerf is very prominent lol. Fighters have been easily the easiest to kite this season with that sprint nerf
New to Dark and Darker. My friends have been trying to get me to play, but Tarkov had me in a tight grasp. I’m looking forward to trying this game out. I will be going Ranger for sure after watching your video. This is how I want to play. You executed so well. Good stuff! I look forward to more guides
I know you are on your ranger arc right now but I woud love to see you play rogue. 1.1k hour rogue main since playtest 2 and have been watching you since your first ever trade chat flip video. we've talke about rogue in your comments before but it would be such good content.
This kit cost, 3,324 gold. For some that might be a lot others that might be chump change, but it shows that you dont need 680105 gold to make a kit when others are making kits that are 10's of thousands an they die
I agree and actually prefer to be a little under geared because the come up is nice feeling. I sell my thousands of gold gloves and buy a full decent kit from it. I think that is good for improving as well.
@@FullLooter This wipe im just running surv bow with add wep dmge, true phys jewelry and cape. Then put some lightfoot boots. No chest, helm or legs. And I run lizard master race. The looks on those poor enemies when they spectate their death cams.. 😂😭💀 They dont expect the dmge and quickness of this combo.
Resourcefulness gives cooldown reduction as well, about 1% per resourcefulness. Good for your ranger build. Also your headshot perk is not useful for survival bow compared to the other options. It’s like 5 more damage on only a headshot, vs the other options. Finally, bows work like franny axes, if you hold your shot for an extra second, it flies much more straight, which is useful sometimes
You can push the training dummy with forceful shot btw, I always put it under the stairs and watch people loose their mind when they can't find the training dummy lmao
As someone playing ranger for the first time I find it kind of unfortunate you pretty much HAVE to choose spear or you are missing out sorely. Would rather the other passives get buffed so it doesn’t feel mandatory. But sick vid regardless. Very helpful.
yo TheLorr, when taking 4th perk, isn't it better to grab that 5% ranged power perk over the 15% headshot one? i bet you'd get more out of the 5% body shots than the occasional headshot, u prob land what 4 or 5 body shots to every 1 headshot? idk the ratio but i assume its better
Glad you said something! Now that I think about it it’s probably a better idea to do so. That way you can focus less on getting str on the build and focus on something else. Usually with a survival bow build it’s better to get like 0 damage bonus. With that perk you can make up for it and stack other stats. Thanks for this comment!
Dont be a wuss. Do a couple runs and fully commit to being a ranger. Swap spear mastery for crossbow mastery and run an AWP. Bring multiple bows and/or crossbows. Swapping can be faster then reloading. 2 bows (surv & recurbe or longbow for distance) + windlass + like a dozen traps. Place traps all over. Trial by fire. Live and die by the bow.
@@tobytowns1 thanks, im a new player, do you think I should just copy the skills he's using in the video? I've been seeing decent success with my current skills but would love to hear the opinion of a more experienced player
@@oshke5225 perks can mostly be up to personal preference and play style, but i can say quick draw (15% faster draw) is a must when using any bow. Speaking of bows, the survival bow is the best in close quarters but me personally i prefer the recurve because of higher projectile velocity and the fact that it actually looks like a bow instead of a stick with string. remember to just have fun and use what you enjoy really
@@oshke5225 spear is very good for pve and if you are creating a hybrid ranger who can do melee. The backstep skill works very well with it and spears are also good for finishing low hp players. However still, i find the arming sword to be just as fine and would rather take another perk to boost my range performance. Rn im using quick draw, quick reload, chase, and Kinestesia
Can anyone explain why people are using the survival bow over the long and recurve? I’m pretty new to the game and just wondering why a ranger would choose it over the others I thought it was supposed to be the worst bow since other classes can also use it what’s the meta around the survival bow?
I hate to say it Thelorr, but you may find that you really enjoy rogue if you give it a try… I know. It’s like saying you could like country music if you don’t like country music. But trust…
@@Piercemxpx ah ok. In my opinion after playing 600hrs of both, there’s nothing rogue does that slayer isn’t better at but the same is not true inverted.
@@Summonick2 I find it pretty crazy that you think slayer can do everything rogue can but better, especially with 600 hours on each. I have 2,000 hours though. It’s also pretty common knowledge that rogue was all around better than slayer. That’s why you saw a million rogues & barely any slayer fighters.
Amazing video, thank you for the information. But I am really confused. I just started the game. I am level 25. With my beginer bow I deal same damage as you. Why not use a bow with more weapon damage? I am a veteran in RPG games but this game stats confuse me and their valuies are too low.. like u had 105% speed and wanted 106% I mean 1%.. is that a big deaL?
When most people are running around with 100% and less, and the entire objective of a ranger is to keep range, as the name implies, having that extra speed means you can handedly outrun melee combat and keep that distance. You only need to be slightly faster than them to create distance. And the soon you do, more shots you get off and the more damage you do. An extra entire arrow is better than a 5% damage buff. Similar with the survival bow, less damage, but more arrows and more movement speed
@@JohnHilton-dz4miThat was his only playstyle bro, cant believe it. 6 seconds and a 30sec downtime and it got nerfed. atleast add new skills to fighter or make them better
@@acr5917 You do not understand what got nerfed on fighter. Sprint and single hand swords got nerfed. But plate got buffed with addition speed. The main/base fighter is one of the better classes. Just because a sub class is not as good, doesn't mean the entire class needs buffed. Thank god you are not apart of the balance team as the game would be in even a worst state.
@@JohnHilton-dz4mi Seems like you dont understand sir, yes they nerfed plate speed and made the perk swift useless now. BUT also they increased the shield ms penalty from 15 -> 20. so its the same now lmao
I’m top 10 ranger every season. Nimble hands, quick reload, ranged mastery, sharpshooter. Multi shot and rations. Rest of the perks ands skills are useless.
eh, very debatable. 10 top doesn’t mean anything in this game.. just means you’re a loot grabber, and PvP avoider. First fight forceful shot saved it, and spear killed the warlock. How could you say they’re useless? And HP saved it too
Sorry man but I just came here to let you know that me and two of my friends stopped watching you when you switched to ranger, good luck in your endeavors
comments builds are bad but doesn’t explain himself 🤣. that’s the best survival bow build you can possibly do. High MS, High HP, and all true gear. Dex and power are irrelevant since survival bow already shoots lighting fast and its weapon damage are so low
I agree that chase is AMAZING & extremely underrated. I’m fine with people sleeping on it though, I’d rather the perk never get nerfed.
I can feel it. It's going to get nerfed soon.
I can never hear anyone with chase. Idk what IM doing wrong
@@edwinoganisyan6829 change headset. Also, use apps to optimize it. I personally use Sonar and been working great for me
@@edwinoganisyan6829 turn yo volume up brother, or get better headphones. I use triple driver earbuds but I’m weird
resourcefulness also increases your cooldown reduction! very underrated
and buff duration with quickfire is incredible. and also fk spear imo arming sword ftw. if a rogue runs u with spear. gg u never win that.

happy to see ranger being viable now, was looking pretty rough for a while
As a cleric player judgement can be so buggy and feel terrible to press so I feel for the guy lol

SLOWMO on the ring pickups. Dude you really care about us 🥲
Goodbye slayer fighter 😢
I wanna see a duos episode with you and Euth where you play base kit Warlock and he plays base kit slayer fighter
what do you think about the trap perk? I feel like if you utilize traps it can be really good
traps are meant to be used proactively so the decreased time spent placing isnt worth, plus toltally isnt worth the opportunity cost of a perk slot

you're quick and nimble with the survival compared to other bows

Good job
Got a 24k gold kit from a rouge as well using a 1.4k gold cleric kit.
How come you dont put on upgrades mid match?
Will do! Glad you said something actually lol
that knockback is way too strong

Feels so bad watching that cleric fail the extremely buggy judgment over and over in fight 4. Worst performing skill in game.
THE BEST BUILD "0:30 I'm new "
You know fighter is in a bad spot when the guy who only plays fighter, plays ranger lol.
So early it hurts
Frost walker might be good on ranger 🤔
nimble hands, chase, quick reload, and kinesthesia >
range and ranger
Oh how the most steadfast has fallen :/
Range and ranger
one does not simply kill yammy.
View recent vid :)
nice
with longbow or recurve bow you kill all much easier than surv bow
This has got to be the most vile way to play the game 🤣🤣🤣
those riveted were atleast 8-10k
