Bismarck.Inference said: »Coronach:
ItemSet 315681
Swaps : Arcadian Beret+1(if you're going for a 3hit build), Kyujutsugi, Orion Hands +1, Arcadian Legs +1, Orion Legs+1, Orion Feet +1. Probably won't notice too much of a damage drop using any of these swaps, just pick out what you have.
Standard TP :
ItemSet 315679
Can drop the rings if accuracy isn't an issue. Kyujutsugi or Orion +1 work as body slot swaps. On something like Delve 2.0 where attack is mostly uncapped but PDIF is still relatively high, going /WAR with a standard shooting setup will probably be more beneficial than going /SAM with a low hit build.
On something like VD DM where even with full buffs and Berserk you can't get out of the 0.9-1.1 PDIF slump(where in adding extra attack does not change your damage at all), then /SAM lowhit will probably perform better(since you should still be above 0.9 without Berserk).
Wildfire:
ItemSet 322306
Can swap relic +1/af +1 in most slots as you want...you probably won't notice much of a damage change on anything you use Wildfire on. If you're on RNG for Yorcia boss for some reason you can change mainhand to the Chatoyant Staff since your TP damage will be pretty ***.
Accuracy Swaps:
ItemSet 321091
Haven't looked at anything from the April update for this set but I don't think they added anything that would change this.
So Trueflight isn't used much? and Wildfire is still used. I had it backwards then. Also what are augments on Seiryus kote?

Whoops, not sure why I use Kote probably just threw it together real quick the day fractures opened and didn't think anything of it; AF+1/Relic+1 will perform slightly better by like 20-30dmg when unresisted.
If you have a mythic then Trueflight damage will still be behind Wildfire by about 10%(even with the extra % damage from having a 99 mythic), so unless you need light based damage in place of fire based damage, Wildfire is the way to go.

Okay. Well then I suppose I need to finish upgrading my Armageddon to unlock WS. And one last question are all AF/Relic reforged pieces worth upgrading? I am only looking at i109 right now...i119 is a tad bit out of my price range. :x

My namas set has +12 STP making it 16.9 TP return
that TP set is 18.4*4+10 for 83.6
so 83.6+16.9=100.5
That's a 5 Hit. Your WS counts as a "hit" when considering Xhits.

4-hit means it takes 4 hits to reach 100tp. From 0tp, that is 4 ranged attacks. Once at 100 to, your WS becomes the first hit of your 4-hit.

Can sub out hands for augmented Seiryu Kote(same accuracy as other high accuracy options, just no STR/Rattk); can get up to STP+5 along with some Crit. Hit Rate depending on how hard you want to augment it, if you're concerned about needing a full recycle round. Also not sure if you're factoring in /SAM or at least a Samurai Roll of some sort, which I'd expect most people to have.

Not looking to nit pick but this set only is 4 hit if all for hits proc recycle right?
ItemSet 319828
looks to be 20.8 TP/hit * 4 = 83.2, so to reach 100 need all four to proc. with 90% proc rate 9/10 times you will be 4hit but seems like DMG /RACC is sacrificed to do it this way?
You can use Aeto trousser+1 and Skote for more store tp option, but with 90% pro on hat and conserve tp 4hit happen pretty often

But that's my current crossbow set.

I was curious about this a while back actually! And did some crude math:
Probability of all 4 hits procing(90% Recycle):
.9^4=.65 = 65.6% chance of achieving 4 hit. (34% Chance of not achieving 4 hit)
Conserve TP Adjustments:
Conserve TP is 25% and belt gives +7% = 32% Conserve TP Proc
34%*.68= 23.12% Chance of not procing
~77% Chance of achieving a 4 hit.

Is Arcadian Braccae +1 still broken for the snapshot portion? I'm lacking a bee delve win and I'm looking for other options if possible.

It is still broken, tested before this post.

~77% Chance of achieving a 4 hit.I posted about this a few months ago. It's more complicated than what you wrote here since larger Conserve TP procs can cover recycle not procing multiple time. ie, it's not just about *if* Conserve TP procs but also *how much* it procs for. I would be interested to see the real probability worked out sometime honestly I don't know how to do it properly. It's definitely higher than what you said though.

Yep, it's crude as hell and I also immediately knew that it can proc for less 5 as well, depreciating conserve TP by at least <25%. Sorry for missing your post though! We both did a rough estimate, but I bet we're both right within 5%. I think a ballpark of about 80% is enough for RNG to know how reliable it should be.

Hi.
Starting gearing mules for rng. They dont have yet access to mega boss drops, nor new nq delve boss, so no jse and ofc, no relic.
So, for them, i believe the only possible option to get a 119 weapon prior to doing great events would be skirmish. So my question is, what would be the better choice? Hgafircian +2 with last stand or bocluamni +2 with jishnu/apex?
Also, is there better ammo in AH than adlivun bolt/arrow?
Also, i supose that, without relic, i should use /drg? Aiming ceizak delve and ark angels in future.

I'm fairly new to rng so I won't offer any advice but as far as ammo goes, here's a few options, i'd say their fairly close but it depends on if you need racc or not:

do /drg and use high jump when its up. make sure to use decoy shot and camouflage when its up. once you get a good feeling on controlling your hate, you can maybe get away with going /war.

For the amount of work it will take to make a +2 skirmish weapon, I think you'd do better to just buy a 117 weapon on the AH. Echidna's bow + JR did quite well in ceizac and I think it would be fine for AA spam as well. If you don't want to use plasm for ammo, you could go with Ra'kaznar arrows.

Low delay, more shots over a period of time. Illapa does have respectable damage with Achi. Bolts, esp if you are using them in conjunction with def down bolts like acid/oxidant.
edit: Which in turn boosts the damage of other rangers around you. It's not bad to be the xbow ranger (esp if you don't have a relic) if you use the utility of it correctly when around rangers with relics.

It's been a while since I've shot Acid Bolts, something like 6 years even. Do oxidants land on boss encounters with frequency?

Hello, I'm very very new to Ranger so I'm wondering what the stp needed in a TP to make 4/5hit builds. I currently only have Falubeza bow atm.
