Default Assassin and Ranger

Hi.
I`d like to know your opinion about assassin and ranger, and their play style.

I tried both classes, but only for a while.

1. Which class requiers better timing and skill?
As far as i know, if playstyle doesnt require skill, timing and brain-using, it gets boring if you play it for a long time.

2. Which class is more versatile?
I would like to play my main character most of the time, so id like to pvp, farm and do missions with it.

3. And last but not least, which character is more fun to play in your opinion?


Thx ;]

1. ranger
2. ranger
3. both, but for different reasons. assassin is generally over the top damage, while ranger is a mixture of disruption/shutdown/annoying-the-crap-out-of-everything.

Rangers are more versatile, but personally I'd go with assassin. I just tend to find them more fun. The rest depends on you. Which ever one you like more.

i would say ranger to each of your questions. but [backbreaker] sins are fun too. wailing on defenseless people always sounds like fun.

rangers have the range to survive, unlike sins who have the same AL and have to rush into battle. sure, sins do a load of damage, but theyre also easy to kill

Ranger's probably require more timing, based on what you're trying to interupt. Sins usually run attack chains (provded that you're using daggers), so there's not much skill involved outside of manuvering/deciding on a target.

Keep in mind is that sins can abuse all martial weapons with Critical Strikes; you may have some fun with that. Additionally, if your main intention is farming, then sins would be the way to go. They have uses in UWSC and tanking. Either class can hold steady in pve, otherwise.

I prefer to play my sin in pve. If you're really interested in making use of your sin, then join a physway team.

Rangers. The most versatile class imo. Not to mention fun to play in general
