This is my Ranger version as you should guess

Now this will include a 1v1 part and an aoe part

The 1v1 ranger

Now most of you might think 1v1 and Ranger = make a bowjester
But this is wrong

The bowjester is in fact the weakest sub-class in flyff. A ranger will out damage it by far and once we rebirth enough and get 1000 dex the bowjester can no long keep up with the ranger

Let’s look at what the 2 classes has in common first:
Both uses bow so both gain crit and damage at once
Both uses the weapon that gains the least damage per stat point

The differences:
Jesters gains 4x as much crit as rangers thus they need 250 dex to gain 100% crit
Rangers gains the ability to use ultimate bows
Rangers gains master and hero skills

The 2 last reasons is what makes the ranger so much better (ultimate weapons holds more damage than a +10 weapon 30 levels higher (example clean guardian bow has more damage than a +10 angels bow)) and the rangers master skill adds +70 bow damage

With this out of the way lets begin.

Now for once I will take armor last since there is a constant change so here we will start with a build

I dedicate this build to our dear admin

Rangers needs 1 thing
DEX! Nothing else, thus making it:

XXX dex

As for jewellery
Demols
Areks
Mental/gore necklaces (I prefer mental since you need some amount of mp to use you selfbuffs later and it beats pumping int)

Capes simple as well
The cape that adds the most dex

Now for equipment:

We start out as a level 15 acrobat here and already now we get some decent equipment
Already now we change into some new armor:
Stinger/Slepint
Def+36 Dex+3, FP+10%, MP+10%, Crit Rate+10%

Now for weaponry simply grab what ever takes your fancy and start levelling

Now at 45:
Here we make an armor change that will last us for a while:

Hyper/Crusier
Def+55, Bow Attack Power+10, Yoyo Attack Power+11, FP Consumption-20%, MP Consumption-20%, ADoCH+40%

Now I know you don’t have a lot of crits yet since your dex doesn’t increase crit by a lot
But it’s better than nothing and with the weapon son to come in our arsenal its going to be worth the bother

Level 60:

Well what do we know about the ranger? Well they don’t really gain anything good at this point in time just by being a ranger; HOWEVER we do get a nifty little weapon in our arsenal

The guardian bow
Adding a +15% hp and +20% crit
This is a sweat little thing and it will boost up our killing speed by a hefty sum

Now we keep levelling and eventually hit level 90.
Here comes the most weird set in flyff AT ALL:
Aren/Asren
Def+50, STR+7, Crit Rate+12%

That’s right the set adds str oO

Well we wont be changing to this set yet but take it with you so you have it soon

---------------------------------------------
Level 105:
Here we change out our dear guardian bow and change to the
legendary golden bow
+10% attack speed
+40% ADoCH

Now for this damage increase our damage dropped by quite a bit, but our crit% suffered from that.
Here is where the weird Aren/Asren comes into play. Matching these 2 we can get a decent crit% as well as a nifty ADoCH bonus.
This is however where you really see the bowjesters laughing at us but don’t worry we will show them soon enough

Now level 120:
Here happens 2 things
1 we ditch the legendary golden bow for our:
ultimate bloody bow
+10% attack speed
+20% mp
+40% ADoCH

And we get Acer which adds more crit% than that weird Aren/Asren
Acer:
DEX+10, Crit Rate+20%, Add Def+25%, Add HP+15%

Now you start the long grind for hero

Once you hit hero you will notice you never really hit 100% crit and your damage is still not as high as the bowjester counterpart

But now we start rebirthing a few times
You should start seeing your crit % getting close to 100%

When it does Acer becomes pointless so what other set would do use better?

Lets take a look back in time to level 45:
Hyper/Crusier
Def+55, Bow Attack Power+10, Yoyo Attack Power+11, FP Consumption-20%, MP Consumption-20%, ADoCH+40%

That’s correct

Once your crit rates hits into 100% you change back to this beauty and obtain the same ADoCH amount as any bow jester

And even with the 21% crit lost from acer you can just rebirth a bit more and we obtain 100% again and have the ultimate bow and master/hero skills the bowjesters doesn’t

So now all we need is to know what awakenings to go for.
Well ADoCH multiplies your damage by a lot so we need more and we always need more damage right

This ends my 1v1 ranger guide
The aoe part will be added shortly after I do a few tests

SO YOU DARE CHALLENGE THE MIGHTY KAKAWUH
