Dark and Darker Mobile – Minimalist Ranger Build

Guide to Ranger Build

Ву Knightcore.

This build sacrifices armor points for move speed (or minimal penalties) to keep the opponent from ever catching up to you. This build requires map and route knowledge, as well as constant awareness, since you are weak to ambushes (I try to bait every door as if I know someone is there).

• Low move speed penalty pieces, since the Vigor meta demands some armor for survivability, dropping the chest piece still allows me to outrun everyone.
• Don’t use kick for the knockback unless truly desperate; it’s better used to break down doors and quickly create more kiting distance.
• Bow choice is personal, but I don’t think this works too well with spear or dual wield, in my opinion.
• Be sure to take off any looted chest piece (unless you think it’s good enough for the speed sacrifice).
• Save kick and open doors normally if you can; this will help you survive ambushes by having it off cooldown for anyone hiding quietly behind the door, or to kick a different door down if you need to disengage or create distance right after opening.
• Kick also breaks open doors if people are trying to hide in the corner.
• Force shot and kick knockback can be used to keep people in longbow flames or can push them off a ledge to create a large distance.
