Range DPS

GeronimoChief

I have a vet1 nightblade which i thought would be more suitable for range dps,but after reaching veteran my suspicion came true.Except the fact that nightblade is the most weak class,i found out that playing with bow is kinda impossible at veteran.Checked the classes and non seem to fit or compliment playing a pure bow only wielding dps,except the fact that bow's feel and are weak as weapons and the bow tree skills are week/buggy also.So the only tree that compliments playing range dps is bow which skills are weak , class skills doesnt realy compliment playing range or bow in that matter.How dificult it would be to make a 5th class like a ranger or something for all manners of range dps ? I Seriously think of reroling but no class can be range dps so yeah.....Waiting for opinions to see if it's only me or other ppl thinking alike.

I am not sure about a Night Blade since i took a look at the skill set of the class and don't personally feel like its my thing , but a sorcerer is decent with a Bow.

I am currently at VR3 , and a go through packs of 3 mobs with ease using this setup with my Sorc : http://esohead.com/calculator/skills#mMzz9s8innG8NUVF8NNgI8AIQ18AIUM8AISv85og7rrsXx8H7zLbHm8J7mLziY8K7JLkg6Lzuu6LzuN6Lzuj8zc7zzgeXm8zf7zzNbo8zu7zzHfYE6zHfZd8zG7zzHQ3F8zI7zzJIoX6zJIkL8zN7zzJZcY8zA7zzKpUN8zL7zzK4EX

This is a setup that is oriented more towards class skills , with a Bow ability used for kitting.

I do not know how a pure Bow user would be set up unfortunately, since i am affraid to move towards a stamina build , since that is used for rolls and CC breaks as well , so you have to juggle your resources in a different way.

Have you tried using a destro staff instead of a bow ? I saw a lot of NBs in VR content that used siphoning skills coupled with Fire destro staff that went through content as fast as i did.

To be honest with you personaly kinda dont like mages and kinda dont like the idea of mage/bow , and thing is i dont like using for example a staff because it doesnt work any other way on veteran etc.Just want to roll with my playstyle which unfortunately this game doesnt provide.Something like thief(the game) or a ranger/engineer of shorts pure range dps bow only or other range weapon etc

My sorc only uses crit surge regularly from class tree.

Bow for everything else. Stam build though. Werewolf.

I'm VR1 and I run with a bow on my NB about 95% of the time. I'm just hitting stonefalls though but I'm not having any problems soloing it the quests even when I pull 3 mobs at a time. Not sure if this will help you...everyone plays differently but this is what I have for skills, you could use agnoy skill instead of surprise attack, I just like it incase if they get close I can do a hard hit stun and then "knockback" to make some distance.
