Archer Path Ammo

Post by Nekonecro » Sat Dec 01, 2018 12:43 am

http://wiki.arelith.com/Ranger#Archer
Craft Ammunition ability: Once per day, a ranger may create a bundle of projectiles for the weapon they have specialized in (bow, crossbow, sling, thrown weapons). The quality of the projectiles escalates with the ranger's level.
Anyone know what the levels are and what kind of ammo they make at when?

Ahh so AA lvls won't increase the quality of arrows you can make, only ranger?

Correct. It is a RANGER PATH, not an AA Path.

[edit]

Ultimately, though, at level 10, this is how you compare:

6 levels of ranger and 4 levels of AA will get you steel arrow bundles (+2 danage) and +2 Attack and +2 damage from four levels of AA (technically 3 levels of AA, but 4 here for sake of argument.

10 levels of Ranger will get you Damask Bundles (+3 damage) and an extra +1 Damage on Favored Enemies, giving you only a +3 damage, and +4 damage on FE's (since your previous 6 levels of Ranger above already get you 2 Favored Enemies at 1 and 5)

So the comparison of taking only 6 levels of Ranger and 4 levels of AA... and making use of Steel Bundles, compared to 10 levels of Ranger and making use of Damask bundles is a net loss of -1 damage (even vs. FE's) and -2 attack.

...and you can always acquire Damask Bundles elsewhere, while having that unlimited supply of Steel Bundles.

Thank you, for some reason I was thinking AA levels figured into what type of bundles you could make.
