Wildfire as with most magical ws suck outside of abyssea. But maybe the aftermath would make up for it.

It gets resisted so often outside abyssea, you're better off using Hot Shot. When it doesn't get resisted though, at least for Corsair, it's better than Slug shot. Corsair's AF really helps (Feet especially) Push Wildfire to true awesome status, Ranger does not get that benefit, and even looses out on a lot of the Acc of the weapon skill that Corsair gets as well (Again, feet, can't stress the awesome level for Wildfire)

Seriously though. Jishnu's Motherfucking Radiance. It's basically what happens when you combine Sidewinder and Barrage in one attack. Fistule is hilariously easy, as is Bhukis. You owe it to yourself if you're serious about ranger.

I prefer wildfire in abyssea since I never get to use it against nms which so far all seem to take lower dmg from it then they should. Even the ones that take normal magical dmg as a reference to how much they should take. That being said wildfire is the strongest brew ws and rng can hit 10/15 peircing blue solo... so yeah it's my item + kill brewer since wildfire allows me to litterally wait till the last second to kill... also might be fun with that idea of stopping the brew countdown to kill a at least 30 NMs before it wears off

after a little further thinking, would it be better to use one blobnag ring + omega ring, denali kecks for 1 less mab then ASA legs but you get + MACC and fire grip?

agi is better. It should be adding to macc too. Like if it works as it should 2agi ~ 1macc.

Also I rarely see actual resist on it since I push so much agi. But it just seems alot of nms in abyssea have some sort of -wildfire or magical ws dmg on them. And this includes trash nms too lol.

Also as far as dmg goes denali would be close to asa to begin with that I'd say it might sometimes do more

I notice that on rudra storm as well, sometimes i hit trash mobs and get a 150 damage...its like "wha?"

rings i'll stick to auster's + blobnag then, might actually do denali so i can use second augment on asa legs for rng acc for the barrage +1.

fire grip vs reaver +1?

2macc vs 2 AGI

I'd still go with dmg over small amounts of macc. *** if you really need some atma of kirin would be crazy with all its agi and macc.

Well there is another +fire dmg atma out there... not sure if that would be better than kirin or GH depending on mob and gearing.

And seriously though I really doubt you will be able to get your wildfire dmg as high as even detonator outside of abyssea. The only reason it does so good in abyssea like alot of the newer ws it has higher stat mods and you can get alot of stat in abyssea. Not to mention pure + elemental dmg.

Also to note the lvl correct factor wont be doing ***outside of abyssea anymore since I don't think there are any mobs higher than lvl 95ish so capping pdif isn't that hard anymore on like everything lol. Like for example with no food or buffs and meh gear (hadn't upgraded since 70ish) seriously undercapped skill too my 85 rng was doing 2.5k slug shots to saremaya. I don't think I've managed to break that on wildfire on normal old xp mobs

Like for example say you manage to get a ws set with 180 agi 50 MAB ( you are subbing rdm or blm for this lol) using HQ staff and the mob has only 90int (should be around what xp lvl mobs would have but low for most of the old worthwhile nms) you'd barely break 2k. And that would be a pretty awesome build

tbh I can't think of anything I'd bring a rng to in old content that I wouldn't be zerging. That saremeya went down in under 30 seconds with like 8 people lol. Like I went in did double slug shot 1 shot + meditate into another slug shot then barrage and it was dead. I kinda won that parse somehow lol

yeahhh all the old content is really a joke now, im hoping 90-99 will actually be fun and challenging. abyssea is fun but it really is easy mode. there does need to be some kind of high tier gear that most people cant just go and farm cruor and brew.

This is my current, Atmas = Lone Wolf, Smoldering Sky and Ultimate.



Performs well normally, norm damage is around 5-6k inside, 2k outside abyssea

After liking my Bedlam +2 so much, I've slowly picked away at Armageddon and should have it soon. These are the sets I've looked into using.

Rng/Sam
Atmas- Smoldering Sky, Hell's Guardian, Ultimate
Food- Squid Sushi

TP: 4-Hit


- Would macro in Skopos Jerkin (+5 Snapshot) and Impulse Belt to start the shot.

WS


- Anwig Salade has WSD+2%, MAB+2, AGI+4.

These are other pieces I've looked at. I'm not sure how they stack up against what I have.
Body: Mirke Wardecors with MAB+4 and either -5 enmity or magic accuracy+4. The store tp+4 augment would only reduce the required tp by 1 in my tp build to maintain a 4-hit, making it useless.
Neck: Artemis' Medal but too much of a pain without Spellcast.
Waist: Aquiline Belt- I'll have to do some testing to see which is better.
Legs: Nimue Tights but it may be difficult to drag people out to help get these at this point. Desultor Tassets with MAB+4 and Barrage +1.

Any advice? Thanks!
