What to train? 11/26/2009 09:13 AM CST
So, I'm finding myself with an excess of tdps. Yay weapons training.

Most times I would just bug Hanryu on IM's about what I should focus on. This time I'll ask the forums. I dont sell my own skins too often. I dont use a bow, but do frequently backtrain my LX. Melee primary, medium arm-worn shield, LC main Leather backup. I dont find myself using spells alot. I keep WoTP and SoTT up almost 100%, but dont use the others too much. Finding my learning rate to be adequate. Hope that helps.

Strength : 42 Reflex : 40
Agility : 40 Charisma : 23
Discipline : 36 Wisdom : 34
Intelligence : 35 Stamina : 42

If you get your TDPs from weapons training you probably have more than enough defenses to handle your current hunting ground. From that perspective i'd suggest AGILITY. It will help you hit your opponents better.

Are you into PvP?

If you're into PvP, then i'd add REFLEX and DISCIPLINE to my suggestions. If not, then just train whatever helps your normal daily tasks if you feel any of them is not up to par (Boxes, skinning, stealing, stealths, swimming, etc) or save the TDPs for when you climb the "creature ladder" in case you need to increase reflex and agility.

As for charisma... it shouldn't be neglected but, as far as i've seen, the penalties for keeping it low are fairly mild for Rangers. It helps your contested spells and also helps defend against contested spells but that can be overcome by increasing some other stats anyway.

Agreed with Charisma, since you use WoTP.

> Charisma, go ahead and waste your TDPs.

Train your Reflex and Discipline to match the cost of your agility.
