Power Rangers: A Guide To Pewing

Mustela Brais (and Wurrukatte/Kheper-Khepri feet if you can get) for Pre.

Keep Caban on for post
Scout Socks +2 if you don't need extra Acc, Praeda Sabatons (or again Kheper-Khepri) if you do.

Minor upgrades could be Elanid and +2'ing Sylvan for pre. Libeccio when you need Racc too. (Recycle is capped just with Scouts+2 and 5/5 merits)

Hey Aselin,
Your precast set looks good, except I would buy a pair of Mustela Brais for the legs and getting the +2 head. If you want, I think I have some spare Legion Points and can get them for you that way to save you some gil.

Since your back doesn't have Snapshot on it, no need to swap it out. I would keep Moondoe for low accuracy situations. Libiccio is only +1 better, and the Recycle trait on it is useless, since Natural Trait, Merits, and Scouts Beret +2 caps your recycle proc (last I saw, at least)

I need to look at the numbers, but Sylvan body might still beat Manibohzo Rank 15, since the Enhance Velocity Shot gives some level of Ranged Attack boost.

I just said the exact same thing above you XD

I was typing up my reply as right when you posted.

Thank you for the suggestions!

Mmm, I have yet to do Meebles Burrows to get Elanid Belt. It feels like only exclusive groups go do Meebles because I've only seen maybe one or two shouts for a pick-up group since I've gotten back to the game last April. No one else shows much interest except my Salvage static, but we're only three people total there so would be hard to do with 3 people.

As for Legion, again, either exclusive groups [in LSes] because I've yet to see shouts for it, and people in one of my LSes, interest has fallen upon deaf ears. So, I'm out of luck there trying to do Legion to get points and Kheper/Khepri gear. Then again, my only biggest issue with Ranged Accuracy are the Delve NMs. It seems I'll need more if I can successfully hit something like the Raptor in Delve.

I have to make do with what I have at the moment. I'll probably postpone buying Bronzepieces for GHorn to afford Mustela Brais. (But, if you have enough points for the pants, that'll be greatly appreciated Snpr if you can help me with that.)

A lot of things Helel has mentioned in his OP I simply cannot get without a specific group of people that know what they're doing. I've been gone two years and I've missed the boat so-to-speak on trying to get gears from Voidwatch, Legion, and Meebles. I'll have to make do with Delve, Relics/Mythics, and Salvage +1/Dynamis +2 items. Scout's Socks +2 should not be hard to get.

I already have Scout's Beret +2 with 7k EXP into the trial, with 13k more to go. Ouch. >< And, I already have 5/5 Recycle, dropped Stealth Shot the moment this thread first came up. (Thank you again Helel.)

But, other than that, thank you for the tips. I'll see what I can do.

Mustela brais are pretty easily acquired (snapshot legs). I would try to stick with sylvan caban for post-shot. The enhance velocity shot boost is rather substantial.

There are quite a few better feet options too, scout's, sylvan, skadi +1, sigyn's, etc. Not sure what you have available.

You may want to try /wait 1 on your macro. I think 2 might be too long if rapid shot procs.

Edit: I totally didn't see the new page of posts, woops!

My Sylvan gear is only missing Gapette at +2. And, my Salvage static haven't seen an Idi's ledelsens drop yet for Sigyn/Skadi's +1 feet yet from Orthrus. (But, hey, we got two Genta bodies and one Namru's legs, so I guess our luck isn't that bad...)

So, readjusting my pre-shot and post-shot:

Pre-shot
ItemSet 305854
(Once I get Mustela Brais.)

Post-shot
ItemSet 305855

Skadi's NQ Feet or Sylvan's Botillions +2 will do for now until I finish Scout's Socks +2.

Definitely use sylvan +2 feet over skadi. More accuracy/attack (if using marks) and an increase to critical hit rate (+15 agi). I actually use sylvan feet more than scout's for accuracy on these NMs. Soon to be even better with the AGI/accuracy adjustment.

Edit: somewhat minor, but you also get a higher chance of double damage proc off rapid shot with sylvan set bonus.

I made one too before posting my above comment and feel pretty much the same. It's pretty fun for getting merits on worms though... :) Most hits are 2.8k crits with rr/ss/gh and I got a lot of 9~10k Arching Arrows.

I plan on trying to use it on the Bee pre-NMs with some additional -enmity gear but it's still unclear to me whether or not this is a good idea or a terrible idea.

Question: is the Scout's Jerkin=2 worth using? I see you mentioned it but dunno if i am bad and should feel bad for wondering if it could be used for something :<

Not really, the "Enhances Snapshot" just basically reads "Double Shot +5%". Caban+2 beats out most other options on the RAcc+20 alone, even before the estimated extra 5% Ratk.

Always been curious if it procs on weapon skill, but I haven't tried it. Double shot doesn't so I assume it wouldn't, but who knows. Probably not worth using even if it did.


Assuming you're not locking chapuli, you might as well. He can't be weapon skilled, so there's really nothing to worry about with decoy shot.

I haven't tried the butterfly with echidna's, but that one might be difficult to manage hate.

For Manibozho brais, would the ATK or R.ATK path be better for most bow/gun weapon skills?

Decided to get the delve spooch bow to play with and it's pretty damn sick makes me want to buy the boss bow and make an annihilator and play rng again. Made upgrading my scout beret +2 in qufim on dc mobs a breeze talk about ranger tanking lol.... Really did remind me of the good old days except hardly used any ammo over the weekend getting 20k xp for the hat and doing a few meebles runs for grins...

STR path would be best for most bow weapon skills. You can do AGI or STR for gun. I haven't math'd it out simply because I use BLU quite a bit, so I didn't really have a choice. Those legs are sick for any melee.

The only potential issue with STR path for gun is capping fSTR2.

Well then... Guess I shouldn't have made echidna's bow after all. Those bullets are insane.

The new cap/head piece is nice (str 22 dex 25 agi 25), though they basically just killed tchakka with it. JSE back is nice for acc/hybrid build. Kind of disappointing though, relative to the other jobs. The ranged attack neck is nice.

Are they only usable with SoA weapons?

All weapons

best 5k plasm I ever spent xD
actually the rng only bullets are more like 30k plasm a stack... thank goodness for recycle updates lol

That better be "a stack of pouches"

Otherwise it just furthers my opinion on SE and their mathematical abilities.

Im guessing my gil problems with RNG and COR are solved :?

Even the bayld arrows/bolts/bullets are nice :<

Don't think these guys quiver. You get the option to buy 1, 33, 66, or 99 bullets. The cor/rng ones are 50 plasm each and the rng only ones are 300 plasm each.

Hrm....space issues rear their ugly heads again then :(

I use thf a bunch so I was thinking that too. Would mostly be used for JR.I was just wondering for the AGI ranged crit and if the 10AGI/15R.atk would be better than 10STR.

Not sure about space issues although bleeding plasm is going to be fun. I'm almost positive 1 stack of bullets will last you at least 1 delve run thanks to scavenge and recycle procs. Would love to know what ppl who are doing boss runs average for bullet use per run?

I hardly ever use a stack of iron arrows when skilling unless i've been at it for hours and scavenge starts being a *** and procing nothing every time. Then again, i only have NQ scouts beret...

So, is it time to merit Scavenge Effect? :)

Is Cirdas worms the best option to skill to cap atm? If so, how do you avoid being magicked to death :(

I capped mine in gustav tunnel while doing the worms in gustav tunnel, or go do crabs till ~400 in abyssea grauberg where melo melo is, just grab some regen atmas

What's the recommended path for kukri?

also, started path b on brias for coro (don't think ill miss too much from path a unless i start caring about blu again or using bow but who knows.
