Library info for : Boomerang Base damage: 21,Can be used by: rangers, thieves Description: This highly effective strike weapon has been specialized in by the Hunters of the Desert lands for many centuries. Mages long ago crafted it with the ability to steal a part of its victims soul in order to keep the tribes hunters hale and hearty while out on the long and dangerous hunt for the ever popular Sand Viper meat only found in the deepest part of the Desert. While not particularly large or heavy a Hunter can throw this weapon from a very long distance and wait for it’s return. Usually before the victim can even get close it has been drained of all its vitality and presents very easy pickings for the Hunter. Level needed to equip it: 29, Magical: Yes, Vamparic: 0.25, Armor: 0, Strength modifier: 0, Intelligence modifier: 0, Dexterity modifier: 0, Constitution modifier: 0, Wisdom modifier: 0, Charisma modifier: 0, Poison chance: 0, Poison/30s damage: 0, Monster damage tab.


Not sayin this is gonna work but I do think rangers need a magical weapon that they can rapid fire from etc, if anyone else agrees post it on here or post your thoughts about the weapon. Name of it could be changed of course but I think its a good idea.

maybe take down the base damage a bit, rangers are already tough enough in duels with enchanted bows. with a vamparic weapon of equal damage, it'd make them that much harder to beat. base damage of 17 or 18 sounds about good i think

[alone]

They already have a magical weapon they can RF from... Or did you mean one with Vamp?
I can't really see how a Boomerang is much good for hunting snakes either.
Finally, I'd like to add a suggestion;
21 BD is too high, considering it's got everything the ranger needs. Maybe 19, or 20. I'd also drop the Magical part, too. At least make people change their weapon depending on what they're doing.

I presume you would lose the ability to Rapid Fire with this weapon.....

[Julius]

You need to rethink all of the various stats, First of all, its the same BD and magic as enchanted bow, now with .25 vampiric, Which means that this weapon needs to be severely expensive, or perhaps..make an alternate to the cobalt staff, with the low vampiric, magic, but make it 19-20 damage, 10mil. It's hard to justify another magical weapon for rangers though, so who knows..

[Rappy_Ninja]

leave it as is and make it a 10m in windia shop I would drop 10m for Excel to pick one of these up anyday

hell I would drop 20m

[Krypto]

Yeah you could drop the base damage down a few but I think rangers should have a magical weapon and it be vampiric and be able to use rapid fire.They can use a cobalt but can't rapid fire from it so its pointless to use it for anything other than a fighter or zerk. It was just a thought and thanx for the thoughts from you guys, maybe the vampiric could be like .15 that would still be good and not make the weapon so expensive and the bd could be like 18 or 19 its just a thought anyways thanx.

[Krypto]

It was meant to say use rapid fire with a vampiric weapon and it also be magical, it could be 18-19 BD and .20 to .15 vampiric.

[shomer]

sounds good to me

[joanna]

What is the gross obsession with all suggested ranger weapons having to be magical?

[Krypto]

I think the weapon being magical would help for killing bosses etc, and the part for it being vampiric could also be for that but not only that but if you were dueling a person or someone was trying to pk you the vampiric part of the weapon would help you out numerously atleast I think it would.

change the word numerously lol doesn't go with it, make it immensly.

[Rappy_Ninja]

stop crying about it wow

10m for a enchanted bow with some vamp wont make them overpowered

[Ryuku]

Zerks get a weapon that does x2 damage with vamp (cobalt), why can't rangers?

Supported with lower base damage (17-19)

[Gaddy]

Cobalt does x2 damage? (no)
Rangers need to be made any better? (no)

But yea, this is a great idea. Lets see if we can make it more common than costing 10m though.
And maybe give them better shields so they can be more of a sit and hit and vamp and be hit for little damage type characters..

[Julius]

Or give them a cannon

[Ryuku]

By double damage, I meant they can use the cobalt with an ability that does x2 damage (1.5, 1.75, whatever), so why can't rangers? I agree since it's a staff, it shouldn't be able to rapid fire, but there should be a bow alternative for rangers.

[Gaddy]

There are alternatives to ranger weapons....

[Smokie]

I reckon the weapons are fine as they are ...1 point to make is that they some of them are expensive E.G. lvl 30 weapons..
