Could anyone explain me how the ranged weapon users will dominate expeditions???

Sum of perception + agility for expo mobs (min-max known)
White drake: 198-246
Black Drake: 164-190
Phoenix: 179-249
Red drake: 213-306
Hydra: 220-269

I didn't say it would be easy Level 60+ Collector that can actually use a Good Heavy Crossbow of xxx

+120 hit between tattoos and Suffix (equivalent +40 Agility/Perception)

Suffixes worth using give around +10 to both Agility and Perception at (+3), who knows at Good (since no one seems to bother with them until maybe now )

Then as much optimal equipment as you can squeeze out of it, and I mean scary unlikely stuff such as Hunter's Armour of Death Sower and Bat's Ring of Youth.

Each shot on a multi shot weapon giving an SR a run for its money.



I said somewhere it would be a case of the stars alligning, but if it ever did happen they would probably return the status quo in a hurry as the devs panic and nerf the game since someone put a lot of hard work into acheiving something.

You would need Hunters cape of speed/death sower or similar, Hawks ring of bat or the whole Diamond set with nice suffixes.
It is so much easier to go melee or even use guns than to even try with ranged. They are a mission to equip (requirements) and even if you manage, the damage won't be that great I think.
My opinion stays the same: Ranged weapons are useless in expeditions.

In general I would agree, but this perfect ranged fighter set would be like someone discovering alien technology in Blood Wars.

We would all be seriously outclassed if anyone ever managed to uncover it

I knew there was a collector floating around here somewhere...
