+Ranged Accuracy/+Ranged Attack Gear 1-75

[OneWingedDemon]

RSE Elv feet can be taken in place of leaping boots, the RSE gives the same amount of agi (+3). RSE Elv pants give +2 , you can use those instead of martial slacks(mispelling?). RK +1 belt and +2 belt only have 1 rng atk difference and +2 is more expensive.

Wait a sec here... the Haste given by the Speed/Sonic belts DO NOT effect ranged attacks??

Oh and thanks for the info about the side effects of wearing Crimson. ^^

[Neban]

To my knowledge, no form of haste/slow has any effect on the pace of ranged attacks. The spells certainly don’t, I would think the same to be true of the speed belt and similar items.

just to correct neb, its on dragoon type mob its gives you "<insert PC Here> is intimtate by <insert drg mob name here>"

id go with kirin osode over AF body, i think +10 all stats > +10 rng acc when you have ~100 rng acc.

oh and for speed/sonic belt, it doesnt affect rng atks, but it affects casting of blink, if you want to blinktank.(same goes for byakko hediate)

After finally getting a chance to goof around with the AF headpiece, I can safely say it is a -highly- underated piece of equipment.

Just from goofing around tonight, Rapid shot is up to 1:4 to 1:7 at worst. If you have the Acc to hit even reasonably consistantly, there is no good reason to get rid of this piece.

i'd add mage's cuffs, i use them over AF gloves (agi +2)

[Spider-Dan]

I just can't see keeping a Peacock Charm, unless you already have every other piece of uber accuracy equipment in the game.

Selling a Peacock can buy you:

Hawker's Knives x2
Nomad's Mantle +1
Mage Cuffs
Emperor Hairpin
Winged Boots

...with millions to spare. Depending on the server, you can probably buy a freakin' E-bow with Peacock proceeds.

Peacock is effectively RACC+5, RATK-5. The above equipment gives you RACC+5 over their next best substitutes. Unless you already have all of that stuff, Peacock Charm is a waste for RNG.

[greysenn]

I think you mean Amemit+1. I can't see giving up 2 str and 15 Ratt for 2 points of agility.

Spidey has a good point though, you can buy all that crap, and get a pair of spectacles with a few million to spare for the argus charm. Granted, none of that other stuff really is the status symbol the peacock charm is.. so if thats what you're after..

[poweryoga]

I'd like to add Ammemit +1, hawkers +1, and dusk trousers to that list.

No, I meant Nomad's +1. Peacock Charm is essentially saying that you are going all out for RACC at expense of damage (you lose 5 RATK compared to Ranger's Necklace) so the most logical comparison would be to an accuracy mantle.

[greysenn]

I wouldn't necessairly say that. Peacock charm is the best item in the game in terms over overall accuracy (ranged and melee). Whether you actually use much of the "overall" is up to debate.

The extra 5 acc in that slot lets you put str and attack gear in all of the other slots, and still have a relatively same level of accuracy. Obviously nobody is going to be ditching their hawkers, or well.. everything else you can replace in most cases.

I'm putting this as a sticky

[Spider-Dan]

Narru, you should add Wool Cuffs +1 (AGI+1), Mage Cuffs (AGI+2) and Jagd Gorget (DEF:2 RACC+5 RATK+6) to the list, for sake of being complete.

Sorry, I was away for a week so couldn't post. I'm back now

I like this idea. Although I would never say "there comes a point where you have too much ranged acc" ( as I'm trying to design a HNM ranger build ), I have another thought... I do not have evidence for this conclusion, but will construct my gear towards this paradigm anyway -

If 2 Agi = 1 Ranged Acc, given a choice between 10 Agi or 5 Ranged Acc, I'd go with the Agi. Furthermore, given a choice between 8 Agi or 5 Ranged Acc, I'd go with the 8 Agi. Taking a look at the Seiryu's Kote (Agi+15, Ranged Acc+10), I feel the incredible boost gotten from these pair of gloves isn't really the +17.5 Ranged Acc, but actually from the large boost in Agi.

Thus I'll add Kirin's Osode to the list over the AF Body. Besides, if you're strutting around in that bodypiece, you're super uber anyways

No, peacock is effectively RACC+5, RATK-5, ACC+10 (and some DRK I don't care about). Majority of rangers gain TP through dagger and ranged. I like now the Peacock tries to counteract all the -acc rangers have from their other items.

Thought they were already on the list...but I'll double check.

Very good. ^_^ I've been trying to replace certain pieces with +Str items, but am having bad luck with the results.

Posted this just as the patch hit, so sure I'll make the updates. Thanks.

The intimidation effect only happens against things that have dragon killer, which amounts to Dragoon class beastmen, and a few demons. Fafnir wouldn't cause this (I have them, have fought Fafnir with them, never been intimidated). I would be more worried about RDMs wearing them if I was a dragoon or wearing a Hrotti >.>

I prefer the 10 attack over the agility from the Kote, but that's my personal preference. I don't miss as it is in normal instances.

Peacock is useless. If you have enough money to buy that you should be shooting often enough to offset any missing from your melee attacks. Sell it and buy more ammo.

Other items to add to your list:

Kriegsbeil. 1H axe, D48 Agi+5 R. Acc+4 R.Atk+8 Lvl 70
Drops from the Behemoth BC99...hasn't shown up in Ragnarok AH yet.

Dragon Rings if you want to be thrifty.

AF2 body ;O Osode is nice, but Rapid Shot+5, Hate-3, and so sexy .....
