i feel gimped 30 dex

[ducetrae]

this maybe should be in ranger forums but i value the opinion of my fellow khyberians.

many of my ranger counterparts have told me the have a dex of 34 36 38. mine is 30 i feel i may be gimpd so i was wondering am i really gimped or are they gimped in other areas

my stats are
str 24+2 rams
dex 30 +1 if i wear +6 item no need to right now
con 19 (335 hp) ya its low but i have 62 ac to make up for it .(no monk iether)
intel 13
wis 22
char 11

what do other rangers stats look like? should i make a dex shroud wep to give me 3 more dex tp put me at 34

ur ranger is pretty good, i grouped with him before.

[Mithran]

30 is not a low Dexterity stat in this age of Strength-based Rangers.

[uhgungawa]

nothing really wrong there. if you play your toon good than that's it. Although you might want to work to get more HP. 60+ AC or not, you want to aim for 400 HP if you can.

After cap raises look at your options, stay pure ranger or mix. 22 wis is good to add 2 monk. 2 free feats more AC, but at this point wait to see what you'll loose.

build looks good, but the player makes it good or bad

Assuming you are weapon finesse based, do you feel the extra two to hit, to your reflex save, and to your AC (30 DEX -> 34 DEX) is worth giving up the DPS you can gain from using a real weapon in that hand, as opposed to one that has Exceptional Dex +1 and +2 for the 2nd and 3rd tiers? I would think not.

[WeaselKing]

My guess would be that the difference is either in your race or where you spent your level points. Unless you are noticing a problem though I doubt you have one.

[Amabel]

It's a little low and your wisdom is higher than it needs to be.

But you're hardly gimped. People worry too much about min/maxxing.

[ducetrae]

well i never really have problems hitting anything and i dont get hit very often unless i forget to use CE but the 2 more ac and reflex save sounded nice. i cant do monk because i am not lawful good.(chaotic nuetral) but if i were +6 ac from wis would be sick

At the expense of, say, Good Burst and Good Blast on your weapon of choice (rapier, if I recall, right?). Nah, there needs to be balance. I've seen plenty of 36/38 DEX rangers who hit like a wet noodle, even against favored enemies, just as I've seen plenty of 30 STR dwarf rangers get wrecked by AOEs and traps.

Ranger Stats with Rams/Madstone Boots and Rage Pots (I have enough of the last 2 to get through to each shrine

Str 34 (36 double madstoned)
Dex 28 or 30
Con 24 (500hps double madstoned)
Wis - I forget (enough to cast lvl4 spells with a +6 item on - is all that matters)
Int and Cha both around the 10 mark

Don't think you are gimped with a 30 dex at all.

Anax - 12 Ranger / 2 Fighter / 2 Monk

STR 13(22) (w/Rams Might and +1 tome)
DEX 18(38) (+2 Wind stance, +3 tome, +5 Ranger and Drow Enh)
CON 12(18-20) (+2 tome)
INT 12(19) (+1 tome)
WIS 13 (22) (+2 tome, +1 Monk Enh)
CHA 10 (16)

HP - 325 right now / 309 with Wind Stance

Hit points are low, and it's the price I paid for very high dex and AC (69AC self buffed with shield clickie active and CE). I don't think you are gimped at all, man. I've grouped with you many times, while I was playing Anax and always thought you performed just fine. The player makes the build, not the other way around

EDIT - I was wrong on my initial stats!

[Cuchilo]

My ranger is set for ranged (which automatically makes him gimped in some eyes ) and can get all traps in game except the stupid one.

Rogue1/Ranger15
Str-20(+Rams=22)
Dex-34
Con-18
Int-16(22)
Wis-17
Cha-8

I certainly don't feel he is gimped, he is fun to play and does his bit.

urden

str: 16+2tome+6item+2ram+2rage+4dbl madstone = 32
dex: 18+2tome+4enh+4lvl+6item+2shroud = 36
con: 12+2tome+6item = 20
int: 10
wis: 12+2tome+6item = 20
cha: 8+2tome+6item = 16

still looking for +3 int tome so i can qualify for CE, still lacking raiments, chattering ring, +8 bracers

final AC: 10base+4raiment+1ritual+8bracers+13dex+5wis+5prot+ 4insight+1dodge+3ring+5CE+2tempest = 61, 66 barkskin, 67 haste, 71 shield, 75 IH, 80 pally

currently hes sitting on 58 self-buffed (no raiment, no ring, +7bracers. buffs are barkskin, haste, shield)

[Rog]

all you need is a +3 tome for con good luck and happy grinding to take that con to a 20
