Hey gents and ladies, looking for tips and comments for my R/W warrior build... The plan on is attemping raw damage with a bow and axe. this build is going to be used for PvE and PvP in proph/factions. Currently got a Recruve bow with a 20/20 string and 15^50 inscrption and +30 life and a chaos axe. Plans on skills to use on skill bar include:
Escrivate, Dodge, Apply Posion (or posion tip for GWEN) cyclone axe, Endure Pain and Healing Sig

thts for axe in PvP.. for Bow gunna bring an interupt and im thinking glass arrow..not to sure yet..any input is welcome

generally splitting atts into 2 weapons is a bad idea because it will make you will be strong with neither. sunder is bad on a bow. and with your skill selection it sounds like you might get more use out of warrior primary because you wont get any strength for armor pen off your axe attacks. and endure pain is bad.

Splitting would be a bad choice.

Just choose one weapon, constantly switching reduces effiency. You can still use apply poison and other ranger skills too.

well i didnt plan on putting both weapons on same bar.. i would change attrubute points and skill bar if i were to switch weapons

If you're going to bother making a ranger to do these things, do it in a way rangers are well-suited for. If you're going to use an alternative primary weapon as a ranger, do it because there's some benefit to doing it as a ranger. Case in point, there is no benefit to using an axe as a R/W.. a warrior would do it much, much better.

If you must do this just for fun, pleeeaase drop Endure Pain. You don't have the Strength attribute as a R/W and thus can't power it. And frankly its a terrible skill for a warrior in the first place.

Also, if you're going to use Wilderness Survival skills anyway, why invest points in Tactics for Healing Signet? Use Troll Unguent. That's a four attribute split just for a self-heal.

I would use a hammer instead of axe and devastating would be more better than eviscrate.i would still use troll urgent though.

I would recommend:

1. Go hammer + pet instead of bow+axe
2. Stock up on expertise and Whirling/Reflexes
3. Troll>Healing Sig
