The Ranger is a class that utilizes the bow for focused long range attacks.
The Ranger works best at a distance, and has abilities to maintain that distance such as Grasping Roots and On the Prowl.
The Ranger's Character Title will add Attack Power for everyone in your guild.

Skills and Abilities

The tables below list base values and tiers as they're shown in the Guild Hall. As an example, the first upgrade for Grasping Roots can be bought at a Tier 2 guild hall.
Every upgrade to a skill costs skill stars, which are shown in the upper-right corner of the screen while in town.

Bow and Arrow (Primary Attack)

Fire an arrow that deals physical damage and pierces enemies.
This arrow travels very far, often off of the screen if shooting up or down.
The range is just far enough to hit the Watcher without its orbs hitting you. This is a multiplayer only trick as a tank has to hold the Watcher still.
Ranger primary attack speed is 0.3 seconds.
