No Dwarf Ranger Dragonscale items?

[jcoffey]

I haven't been back for too long but I just got flagged and didn't see any Ranger rewards for Dragonscale Armor.
My Cleric friend got a nice item,my paladin friend got a nice item,my Wizard friend got a nice item.
They all told me there are no decent Dragonscale items for a Dwarf Ranger,is this true?
I hope that isn't the case and maybe DDO devs have added something for a non-Warforged Ranger.

you'll probably want this for the alacrity boost.

Red scale is considered best-in-slot by many Tempests and Arcane Archers. It's somewhat harder to obtain than the classic level 14 Dragonscale armors, however.

Infinitely more useful too, since blue dragonscale is the only worthwhile "Tor" dragonscale, and even then competes with other armor slot items for casters.

For a Dwarven Ranger (Who i assume is a melee/tempest?) Dragonscale is probably not going to be your thing. The Cleric might make use of his for a bit, since it boosts bladebarrier and Light/Good critical damage, the wizard will quickly shuck his for something better when it comes along, and the Paladin probably shouldn't be spending scales on Dragonscale in the first place (unless hes going red).

Look forward to a set of Dragontouched Vestements with good abilities - Those will serve you better than Dragonscale ever could (barring red dragonscale, but I assume that is not what you are talking about).

Also: As a note to MrLarone - Black Dragonscale Alacrity doesn't stack with haste, making it good for solo-AA-type-rangers, or Rangers with static groups or other situations where haste is not ever-present, but not for the majority of groups or for mostly melee rangers. Additionally, the Quiver from Abbot gives the same bonus, which doesn't stack, and takes up what is otherwise a useless equipment slot to a Tempest Ranger (And is therefor much prefered).
