This build is for players that want to chest run Witman's Folly with a ranger. It follows the same route as the warrior build already made so I can't take all the credit.

The Route


Red = Running Path
Yellow = Chests don't spawn as much
Green = Chests spawn here more often

Skills


Attributes


Equipment
Perferably a Druid Set or a Sentry Set
A sword or an axe with a +30health mod
A tactics shield with +30hp or +(number of health) while hexed both works fine

The Run
Start off in Droks. Zone out then start cycling Escape, Dodge, then Zojun's Haste. Basically run along this path until you've reached a chest. When you've reached a chest, cast Whirling Defense or keep cycling between the running skills. But be sure to cast Troll Unguent so you won't die when opening the chest and taking the loot. Then continue running down the path until you reach the yellow dots. Azure Shadows spawn here and the size is always random, ranging from 1 to 5. Quickly use Balanced Stance and continue going down the path. If more pops up, quickly cast Troll Unguent. When they all finish using Signet of Judgement, start cycling the run skills but this time start with Dodge for a faster escape. Healing Signet is optional here. Continue the run to the end and then map back to Droks.

Troubles
***Lag could easily kill you***
***Karobo DimDim usually spawn near Azure Shadows so his life siphon combined with Signet of Judgements could be trouble for you***
***Sakalo Yawpyawl(warrior boss) usually spawns with other warrior grawls and they can easily bodyblock you***
***Chests spawned close to Shadows may help THEIR Signet of Judgement recharge because it only have a 20sec recharge time and the range is pretty large. If you die here, just start the run again, Balance Stance, pick up the loot, run for your life***

Notes
*Shields Up does stack with the stances which makes it 100% blocking and will take no damage at all. This is suggested at the end because of the large group of Grawl spawns.
*Whirling Defense can be substituted with None Shall Pass which can give you a second of relief from close enemies.
*E-management is not a concern AT ALL. With 15 expertise and the low energy cost of the running skills, your energy should never drop to around 10.

Please give some constructive critism if you want and I hope there will be more ranger runners in Witman's Folly. Rangers FTW =D!!!

If throwing out my guide was an option, i'd do it! This is a lot more elaborate than mine covering when and where to use which skills, i guess i got alot to work on.

Tip: Becareful not to cast Balanced Stance and then a running skill, the latter stance will cancel out balanced stance and you could be in trouble.

  TheBeano on 03/29/07 21:29

This one nicely compliments your guide, Jtbishop, as yours was for a Warrior and this for a Ranger.

  Senbonzakura on 03/29/07 21:37

lol jtbishop your guide was rly good too - shouldn't throw out your guide :P its good for warrior running - ranger's my main char so i usually make builds around him - your guide was the original backbone of this run i just made a diff set of build that can run it the same as the warrior. =D

  Jtbishop on 03/29/07 21:51

I'd also comment if your looking for some variety in drops (although i'm unsure if the drops are better or worse) I've found you can get 1-4 chests if you do infusion runs at Iron Mines of Moludane. (I cant quite get the last bit there is alot of azures spawning) Just use Balanced Stance around the Doylak Riders and Tundra Giants. Using running skills past the Trolls and Griffins.

Can anyone confirm this?

Shields Up is a shout not a stance therefore it will stack.

Nice guide :)

they do stack, BUT it does not make it 100% to block. its just like having the 75% chance and the 50%. so w\e would have gotten through just the first 75% chance to block has a 50% of actually hitting, think of it like that.

thanks for this alreayd got my first treasure hunter and wisdom title in almost no time

  eiirish on 03/30/07 09:40

Hummhumm, why 5 stances?

  Jtbishop on 03/30/07 12:48

Escape, Doge, and Zoujun's Haste have recharges, Cycling the three allow you to constantly run at 25-33% and have 75% to block incoming projectiles. As you go for a chest you stop for a couple seconds, enough for a horde of Hammer wielding Grawls to attack you, Whirling defense is used for the 75% defense of melee blocking (as however cool projectile hammers would be the running skills will not block them). Last, Balanced stance is used for the Azure part of the run preventing you from being Knocked Down, the downside is that Balanced Stance is a stance, so this will be the slowest part of the run.

i would replaces troll for something else way to much ws for 1 skill. and i think youd be better off with no major/sup runes as expertise past 13-14 doesnt make a big dif.

Cool guide tho
