Talk:Touch Ranger

Complete rewrite. The previous text (which replaced the excellent build to which this page used to redirect) was, frankly, horrible and needed to go. — HarshLanguage 22:58, 10 May 2007 (CDT)


 * Nice job on the rewrite. I put the cleanup tag there earlier and added this article to my to-do list, but you beat me to it. BigAstro 02:25, 11 May 2007 (CDT)

 * It needed to be done. I used this article as an example so many times talking about builds, I couldn't bear to see it languish like that. I see I forgot to re-add the glossary tag that went missing a few revs ago, but Skuld has done that now. I admit, though, I was tempted to put back in that "noob toucher" line from 81.99.38.20's text, because it's absolutely true and has happened to me. =) — HarshLanguage [[Image:qswearing_small.png|HarshLanguage]] 05:20, 11 May 2007 (CDT)

oh... i think that was me that wrote that...

there was nothing there to start with so i thought id add that to the wiki website, please tell me what was wrong so i don't make the same mistake again.
 * Sure thing. I do appreciate that you stepped up and took a stab at writing it - that's the important thing, and I apologize if I offended you. Actually, I would have just cleaned up your text instead of rewriting, except that I wanted to following the structure and info from the now-removed toucher build. Anyway, the spelling and grammar had numerous problems. Yeah, it's the internet, but just like Wikipedia, GuildWiki has an (appropriately) high standard for those things. Then there was the lack of links in the text. Also, articles are written to be succinct and have a neutral point-of-view (avoid "I" and opinions). You should read over Style_and_formatting, that'll help you get a sense for what the quality goal is.

Toucher team lf top ranked GvG?

 * That's pretty awesome... 'tis an old video, though. Pre-Nightfall even. Might even be pre- touch ranger nerfs... wonder if that would still work today. --[[image:GEO-logo.png]] Jioruji Derako.> 23:38, 31 July 2007 (CDT)

Viable for PvE?
I made a PvE ranger a while back (I never do PvP) and I've been looking for non-bow builds to use in the campaign. I've already ruled out bunny thumper, but is this a viable build for most parts of PvE? Silver40596 16:38, 19 December 2007 (UTC)


 * It's good for boss farming, is rather sturdy and has armor ignoring dmg. But as a ranger you can do so much better ith Glass Arrows... --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG]]-- (s)talkpage 16:39, 19 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Yes, I was considering running a Glass Arrows/Needling Shot/Zojun's Shot/Point Blank Shot build. But I wanted to know if Rangers can survive as touchers in the later parts of the game, like the Echovald or the Desolation. Silver40596


 * Echovald and Desolation is not hard to survive ;) As a touchy, you'll probably survive --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG]]-- (s)talkpage 16:44, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, it's just that at that point I start running into moderately large groups. I know for sure, however, that DoA is completely out of the question...it's exclusively for terra-tanks, nukers, and monks... :( Silver40596


 * DoA can well be done with a real balanced group, it's just that it's easy with an obs tank. Even halfcompetent people can make it through, if the tank does it's job well. And when other people let him. But we're going off topic here. --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG]]-- (s)talkpage 16:58, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
