Ranger (Guide)

Description

The Bow Master is the next job for Hunters The damage remains unstable until the fourth job skill Bow Expert. They expand on their already powerful mobbing skills with Arrow Rain, a skill that shoots arrows all around you and has no minimum range, and Inferno, which coupled with an elemental bonus against ice monsters, is extremely potent. They also get a new skill to replace Double Shot, Strafe. Strafe shoots four arrows with incredible speed, each one with the chance to deal a critical. Rangers already have an extremely high accuracy and good avoidability, and can deal a huge amount of damage. However, they have very low survivability and an extremely unstable damage range until the fourth job skill, Bow Expert.

Becoming a Ranger

To advance to the third job, go to El Nath - Chief Residence and speak to Rene. After talking to Rene, head back to Victoria Island and talk to Athena Pierce, located in Henesys Park. Next, find the Door of Dimension located at Sleepy Dungeon V and it'll bring you to "The Path of the Glittering Crystal". Walk until the end of the path and enter the portal to defeat the wiseman's dark side to obtain the Black Charm. Go to Athena Pierce and exchange the Black Charm for a Necklace of Strength. Return to El Nath and give the item to Rene. Head on to the Holy Ground at the Snowfield (Sharp Cliff II). 1 Dark Crystal is required to answer 5 questions to obtain the Necklace of Wisdom (If even one question is answered incorrectly, you need another dark crystal to reattempt answering the five questions). Head back to Rene in El Nath and give her the Necklace of Wisdom.
