Hi there.
Wondering if you guys can help me out. I want to do Marksmanship Trials, but can't decide which one to do. Any help/info/opinions are appreciated. thx Leo Spitfire seems sexy if you get a 4 hit build. Look at the bow thread for the ideal set.
Yea i was looking at those, just can't decide between the Occ. atk. twice or Occ. deals dbl. dmg.
Depends on what you are doing. Obviously on alot of stuff OAT is going to be the sex. But empyrean is also pretyt nice. Especialy on harder targets or if you want to QD some too. Which would be nice in kited fights

I'm glad you're enjoying using Marksmanship and Gun on your RNG, but you may be dissapointed when you get matched up with other RNGs that are using Archery and a Bow and their WS and DoT is greater than yours.
It may make you tend to wonder why you're using the Gun in the first place. Sure, it's cool to have 4-hit ws set-ups, but you still can't beat the Bow for damage/ws. I have to admit though, Armageddon looks hella hot. I'd like to see this consistently being beating by a bow in ws and DOT lol. Cause I've definitely been beating the rngs I've been playing against in abyssea and most my gear is from the earlier 70s. Ie I haven't been pimping it out and getting new stuff etc. Only have like 2 75 peices nothing higher. Barely have a ws set etc.

Many tests have been done.
On equal terms bow has higher Dot, but gun does have higher WS dmg. Bow wins in overall damage as well.

Lul @ kage. Coming from the rng that still uses relic pants.
ive been looking at the ranger guns and bows since the update - and I do have to say that im very unsure about what I want. Emperian is pretty much a no-go (for now).
What are peoples opinions on the best ranger weapon out there? Is the storeTP gun any good? is the WS+10% gun? or it the bow with str and ratt? So which are the best bows and guns for ranger? I wouldn't neglect Crossbows either. Virtus Bow with Fusion Bolts :Q
Since someone necro'd, lol @ bow beating gun. Not even close with 10 tp/tic and dark adaman bullets. Gun destroys bow as it always has.
I'm glad I didnt instant post as I read that because I cant picture gun ever being owned by bows. (outside of some situations) I was going to be rather upset if the general community thought so, at least without owning me with proof.
Edit: I realized I didnt actually answer the question at hand. Personally I'm planning to build the Occasionally deals double dmg gun, Str/atk gun, and the +10% ws gun. The ws one being the only one I expect done anytime soon, but that also being because I'll be octave spamming. /fun It's all about preference to be honest. At this point in the game neither weapon seems game breaking unless your taking the OaT Gun into consideration. New Guns/Xbows/Bullets/Bolts really breath life into using Marksmanship.
Use what you prefer because honestly if you play the job right you will parse just as well.

so i am back on rng after a very long time, and still want to do a marksmanship trial (other then armageddon).
wondering if w/ the 95 update if things have changed as far as which 1 to do. the str mayhem, or the double dmg spitfire or maybe another that i'm overlooking. any tips be great thx Valefor.Leorik said: » so i am back on rng after a very long time, and still want to do a marksmanship trial (other then armageddon). wondering if w/ the 95 update if things have changed as far as which 1 to do. the str mayhem, or the double dmg spitfire or maybe another that i'm overlooking. any tips be great thx Honestly, any of the elemental trials will take you longer than an armageddon to complete. Should try for that tbh =P i wanted to work on something while nobody is on ls and have something decent till i get better

Work on your armageddon NM trials while nobody is on. Get an exequy gun or a Phineus' gun in the meantime if you absolutely need one. If you cannot get help on carabosse/cirien, find a way to solo them.
