Rangers

[Delta357]

Hello all, Im new to this game and Ive been playing with some clan mates of mine. I was just wondering ( idk if there is already a thread about this) what is a ranger in HnH ( I know what a ranger is just not in the HnH context ) and what skills/attributes etc. should a ranger get. Thanks to anyone who answers me.

a ranger is a person with the ranging skill(used in tracking) who will take a scent and go attack/kill a person who has stolen/vandalized/killed. if you're planning to try it I'd suggest you practice some pvp with a friend first.

or besides beating the sht out of ur friend you can find a frog

frogs die in 1 hit, and don't fight back. if you need practice fighting and don't want to spar with a friend try ants.

should get unarmed? i thought they were marksman

if you're planning to be able to fight another player you'll need several fighting techniques, and if you plan to win you'll need to know how those techniques work in combat.

edit: and if you just started today(as your profile says) being a ranger isn't something for you to worry about for a while. work on getting your basic skills, and some decent stats. you can worry about combat later.

Well what should I get to be a ranged fighter who can hunt and be effective at killing other players in either ranged/melee/or unarmed combat?

guess you were posting while I was editting, but:
-hunting will allow you to make a sling and hunt animals
-marksmanship will allow you to aim faster so you can fire your sling at animals
-using a boat you can hunt animals safely from the water while they're stuck on shore

don't worry about pvp, atleast not yet. hope the wiki links help and have fun.

Yep. To actually see scents, and amount of scents depends on this values.
