Ranger Skill Detail and Explanation (English)


(the picture not guide, only skill tree example !)

[Introduction of Skills]

[[Arrow Impact]]
Causes at the enemy Physical Damage and slows his Movement Speed by 40% for 5s.

Level 1: 26% Physical Damage & 20s Cooldown
Level 2: 28% Physical Damage & 16s Cooldown
Level 3: 30% Physical Damage & 12s Cooldown
Level 4: 32% Physical Damage & 8s Cooldown
Level 5: 35% Physical Damage & 4s Cooldown

Cast Time : Instant - Cooldown : 20.00s
SP Cost : 2
Range : 20.00m

This skill is useful as the opening skills for archers, as it slows down the enemy and allows you more time to damage the enemy before it reaches you. As the skill does not scale the slow effect, and though as the skill level increase the cooldown reduces a lot it does not scale well overall for archers and the range where archers initiate a fight is roughly around 20m, it isn't really a main skill of rangers. During dungeons, you would have tanks in front soaking the damages, this skill is hardly used at all except for slowing down the spawns that is chasing after your team's healer. However as a PVP skill this is something that is more useful, with the 4s cooldown and instant cast you could eventually kite forever.

Recommended level: 1

[[Acrobatic]]
You jump back to Increase the gap between you and the enemy.
Level 1: 40s Cooldown
Level 2: 30s Cooldown
Level 3: 20s Cooldown

Cast Time : Instant - Cooldown : 40.00s
SP Cost : 0

This is your life saving mechanism, its used for disengaging a fight and it can easily get you out of void zones. It is a must have skill. It is useful in both PvP and PvE.
P.S I personally use if for wall jumps xD not sure if they will fix it had fun during CBT

Recommended level: 2-3 . GOOD FOR PVP

[[Multi Shot]]
Shots a cone of Arrows in front of you, within a range of 7m you hit up to 3 enemies and cause Physical Damage.

Level 1: 15% Physical Damage
Level 2: 17% Physical Damage
Level 3: 20% Physical Damage

Cast Time : Instant - Cooldown : 3.00s
SP Cost : 1

This skill is one of your early AOE skills, it does not do much damage and it only hits 3 monsters. However it is still useful during dungeons where you have to clear spawns. It may be faster for you to clear them one by one but if they are a weak bunch and you can sure give this a shot and lower their hp and pick them off.

Recommended level: 1

[[Charge Arrow]]
15 Focus Acquired. Causes Physical Damage.

Level 1: 33% Physical Damage
Level 2: 39% Physical Damage
Level 3: 45% Physical Damage

Cast Time : 1.60s - Cooldown : 0.90s
SP Cost : 1
Range : 20.00m

This is one of your bread and butter skills, its one that you will use almost everyday,every hour, the one you hate, the one you love. It takes a a hell of a long time to shoot but you still have to shoot it.

Recommended level: 1-3

[[Charge Arrow Mastery]]
Decreases the Cast Time of Charge Arrow.

Level 1: 0.2s Cast Reduction
Level 2: 0.4s Cast Reduction

Level 4: 40% Physical Damage
Level 5: 43% Physical Damage

Cast Time : Instant - Cooldown : 0.90s
SP Cost : 1

This skills works together with charged shot, its one of those extra damage output skills. It does its job pretty well.

Recommended level: 5

[[Owl's Eye]]
Fired 2 Charge Arrows in a Row Increases your Attack Damage for 10Sec.

Level 1: Physical Damage +3%
Level 2: Physical Damage +6%
Level 3] Physical Damage +9%

One of passive that makes your spamming of charged shot all worthwhile.

Recommended level: 3

Level 1: Agility +2%
Level 2: Agility +4%
Level 3: Agility +6%
Level 4: Agility +8%
Level 5: Agility +10%

Cast Time : Instant - Cooldown : 3.00s
SP Cost : 4

This is the only buff you have, it gives you a 10% dex boost, it may seem very little when you are low level and do not have equipment/cards but it does give u an extra edge in critcal and your team too.

Recommended level: 5

[[Ankle Snare]]
Places a Trap which holds the enemy in place for 10s, activates after 30s.

Level 1: 60s Cooldown
Level 2: 45s Cooldown
Level 3: 30s Cooldown

Cast Time : Instant - Cooldown : 60.00s
SP Cost : 1

This skill does good in PvE and PvP, keeps the enemy in place while you have a free damage at them. I maxed it during CBT, and found that i hardly use it in fights, except when i am killing leaders of the groups and i am soloing it.
For a PvP skill this is strong, trapping your enemies and acrobat away, shooting them while waiting for another trap makes it a good skill.

Recommended level: 1-3

[[Claymore Trap]]

Places an explosive trap which damages every enemy around it and sets them on fire. Burning enemies take for the duration of 10s every 2s. Activates after 30s.

Level 1: 8% Explosion Damage & 8% Burning Damage
Level 2: 9% Explosion Damage & 9% Burning Damage
Level 3: 10% Explosion Damage & 10% Burning Damage
Level 4: 11% Explosion Damage & 11% Burning Damage
Level 5: 12% Explosion Damage & 12% Burning Damage

Cast Time : Instant - Cooldown : 30.00s
SP Cost : 1

This is a pretty useless skill to me, I have never ever killed any mobs with this, neither do i find the damage very significant. Although it provides a DoT, the enemy has to step on it. As a ranger standing so far away, its only purpose that i can think of is to keep those minions that are summoned by the boss at bay.

Recommended level: 1

[[Freezing Trap]]
Places a trap which slows the enemy Movement Speed for 10s by 40%.

Level 1: 70s Cooldown
Level 2: 60s Cooldown
Level 3: 50s Cooldown
Level 4: 40s Cooldown
Level 5: 30s Cooldown

Cast Time : Instant - Cooldown : 70.00s
SP Cost : 1

Another trap that is not really useful for PvE solo play. During solo play there may be many aggressive mobs around you and you would not be able to kite them as freely as you like, slowing them requires them to step on it.
Although that being said it is useful in PvP, ankle snare -> acrobat -> arrow impact -> freezing trap is a good rotation for placing many free damage on your opponent.

Recommended level: 1

[[Falcon Eyes]]
Resets all cooldowns.

Level 1: 240s Cooldown
Level 2: 210s Cooldown
Level 3: 180s Cooldown
Level 4: 150s Cooldown
Level 5: 120s Cooldown

Cast Time : Instant - Cooldown : 240.00s
SP Cost : 4

As fancy as reset all cooldowns sound, i have never felt that it was as almighty as it sounds. It does it job of getting you of of sticky situation when you are in need of another acrobat or trap to get you away, but lets face it most of the skills or rangers have very little cooldowns especially the principal skills, however this skill does also reset windwalk and falcon assault which is a good attack speed booster in this game.

Recommended level: 1

[[Arrow Shower]]
Generates a Rain of Arrows which hit up to 10 enemies in the target Area. It is recommended to use this when you are facing 3 or more enemies.

Level 1: 35% Physical Damage
Level 2: 41% Physical Damage
Level 3: 47% Physical Damage

Cast Time : 1.50s - Cooldown : 0.00s
SP Cost : 3
Range : 15.00m

Your 2nd aoe skill, I maxed this skill during CBT and i found that the damage is really really slow, especially when the cast time is 1.5s and the damage dealt to a single monster can be easily outdone with a well placed concentrated attack. Which makes archer a very weak AoE damage dealer. However on a side note this skill is useful during PvP against rouge/assassins. It allows you to break their invisibility when u hit them. U still invisible if none hitted by your attack ;).

Recommended level: 1.

[[Wind Walk]]
Increases for 30s your Movement and Attack Speed.

Level 1: Movement Speed +10% & Attack Speed +24%
Level 2: Movement Speed +20% & Attack Speed +48%
Level 3: Movement Speed +30% & Attack Speed +72%
Level 4: Movement Speed +40% & Attack Speed +96%
Level 5: Movement Speed +50% & Attack Speed +120%

Cast Time : Instant - Cooldown : 120.00s
SP Cost : 3

This is one of the best utility in the game i feel, it gives both movement speed and attack speed, which makes it pretty much useable for escape or for bursting. And correct me if i am wrong but it does affect the casting speed of your charged shot. So its a win-win.

Recommended level: 5

[[Main Ranger]]
Each Skills which Generate Focus have a chance that the next 2 Double Strafe wont consume any Focus.

Level 1: 3% Chance
Level 2: 6% Chance
Level 3: 9% Chance
Level 4: 12% Chance
Level 5: 15% Chance

This passive allows you to have 2 free double strafe which would increase your damage output as well as gaining attack speed if you have added the skill Fear Breeze

Recommended level: 3-5

[[Focused Arrow Strike]]
10 Focus Acquired. Hits the enemy with Physical Damage and weakens him. Weakened enemies take for 10s more Damage.

Level 1: 18% Physical Damage & 0.5% DOT
Level 2: 22% Physical Damage & 1% DOT
Level 3: 25% Physical Damage & 1.5% DOT

Cast Time : Instant - Cooldown : 10.00s
SP Cost : 4
Range : 20.00m

This skills as good as it sounds i didn't use it all during CBT. Though different build may find this useful.

Recommended level: 1

[[Poison Arrow]]
10 Focus Acquired. Shots Poisoned Arrows which hit the enemy with Physical Damage. Poisoned enemies take Damages over 30s every 2s.

Level 1: 17% Physical Damage & 14% DOT
Level 2: 19% Physical Damage & 16% DOT
Level 3: 21% Physical Damage & 18% DOT
Level 4: 23% Physical Damage & 19% DOT
Level 5: 25% Physical Damage & 21% DOT

Cast Time : Instant - Cooldown : 3.00s
SP Cost : 4
Range : 20.00m

Poison arrow is a really well suited skill for PvP, it allows you to deal constant damage even when you are kiting your opponent. I maxed this during CBT and i found that its is rather a good skill, i use it often to help keep up the damage when i am using the charged shot. I have doubts about the skill because the DoT's scale really well with your attack power but at the same time not being able to see the length of the DoT left on the boss is really bad.

Recommended level: 1-5

[[Fear Breeze]]
Every use of Double Strafe Increases your Attack Speed. Breeze can be stacked to a Maximum of 5 and lasts 30s. The effect will not be renewed if the Maximum of stacks is reached.

Level 1: Attack Speed +0.4%
Level 2: Attack Speed +0.8%
Level 3: Attack Speed +1.2%
Level 4: Attack Speed +1.6%
Level 5: Attack Speed +2%

If your build is highly depended on double strafe i would saying having this at max is the only way to go since it gives u a pretty constant attack speed buff. Although a sad thing is it caps at 5 stacks and you wouldn't be able to keep up that attack speed, so your attack speed would be on a curve, up and down.

Recommended level: 1-5

[[Arrow Vulcan]]
5 Breeze Stacks Required. Fires arrows at your enemy which deals Damage and cause the effect of Poison Arrow.

Level 1: 64% Physical Damage
Level 2: 71% Physical Damage
Level 3: 78% Physical Damage
Level 4: 86% Physical Damage
Level 5: 93% Physical Damage

Cast Time : Instant - Cooldown : 10.00s
SP Cost : 2
Range : 20.00m

This is one of the skill i love the most, it fires a barrage of arrows at the enemy and each of them has its chances of being a critical strike. It is a great way to spend your Fear Breeze since its instant cast, you can always cast it at the last 1-2 sec before the buff is gone to gain that extra damage. Also it scales really highly to your attack power, and reset your poison arrow as well. (Though you can't see it and I believe it has issues)

Recommended level: 1-5


[[Camouflage]]
Not useable in Combat. Hides you in your surroundings and the chance of being detected by Monsters is reduced by half. Decreases your Movement Speed. First attack out of Camouflage deals Double Damage.

Level 1: Movement Speed -40%
Level 2: Movement Speed -20%
Level 3: No Drawbacks

Cast Time : Instant - Cooldown : 3.00s
SP Cost : 3

This skill is great when sneaking around to get quest loot from the floor or just trying to evade attack, however a note is that it isnt a 100% chance. Aggro mobs do still have a 50% chance of detecting you thus you have to be care with this. It does however give u a great boost of extra 100% damage when u start a fight. Side note is that during PvP you can use it and it has the same effect. So be sure to use it before the fight starts!

Recommended level: 1-3

[[Camouflage Mastery]]
Increases your Movement Speed in Camouflage.

Level 1: Movement Speed +10%
Level 2: Movement Speed +20%
Level 3: Movement Speed +30%

I have found no use for this skill just because i don't tend to play the sneaky type and i found that i use Camouflage to initiate attacks. So there really isn't a point if having this skill since i do not use Falcon Assault
and having Camouflage at level 3 would have normal walking speed.

Recommended level: 0-3

[[Falcon Assault]]
Summons a falcon which attacks your target for the duration of 30s. The falcon hits your target every 2s with Physical damage of Blitz Beat. Magical damage description on RO2 SEA its bug.

Level 1: 20% Physical Damage
Level 2: 23% Physical Damage
Level 3: 25% Physical Damage
Level 4: 28% Physical Damage
Level 5: 30% Physical Damage

Cast Time : Instant - Cooldown : 120.00s
SP Cost : 3
Range : 20.00m

This is a skill that i do not use and i do not find useful at all. A duration of 30s would yield me 15 attacks at 30% damage each providing I maxed out on this. Not to mention the cooldown is 2 mins. Though i have to say having 2 damage output source is more likely to gain more damage done since its now 2 attacks at that moment during those every 2 seconds.

Edit:
mamau89: Alone yes, but True Sight (Reset Skill) comboed with Falcon will has a very good result especially for boss fights. It is possible to summon 2 falcon. "http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=KXQ7XI4cEZM" Credit goes to Swamp =)
So apparently you get 3 dmg output though i have to say, it might be a bug and there might be a chance that it is fixed, or rather this would provide a good short burst!

Recommended level: 0-5
