This build uses the ranger attribute Expertise to reduce the cost of spirits and
uses the skill Oath
Shot to spam them. The only disadvantage is that it doesn't
have Spawning
Power.
[edit] Attributes and Skills
[edit] Equipment
- Weapons - Recurve Bow with "I Have The Power!" inscription and
Fortitude mod.
- Survivor and Vitae Runes.
- Use Whirling Defense while under attack or at
risk of Ranger Interrupts.
- Keep Generous Was Tsungrai up, as opposed to
using it when necessary, as it has a relatively low cost and the
main limit on its healing comes from recharge, not energy.
- Use these skills preferably before oath shot if they have
recharged to achieve full benefit.
- Against spell based group, set up dissonance first, whereas
against melee groups, use shadow song. These spirits will reduce
the damage done to your builds, as well as potentially devastating
area of effect spells on spirits.
- Set up spirits spreaded out, as opposed to on the same spot, or
else AoE spells or Dervishes (especially with Banishing
Strike) would make short work of them.
- In some situations, use spirits to body block for effect. Set
up dissonance offnesively near monks if your group needs offense,
at the back defensively if you need help against assassins or
melee.
[edit] Counters
- Anti-spirits or summoned creature skills such as Banishing
Strike.
- Armor dependent damage spells, especially AoE ones.
- Blocking or Dodging Oath Shot, or Blinding you while it is
being activated.
[edit] Variations
- Pain does not benefit as
much from Oath Shot, but is a nice addition if more damage is
needed, and it would also help the energy management of the
build.
