Counters
- Enchant removal
- Stance removal
- Dazed
Locations

- It is advised to kill skeleton rangers and grasping ghouls before the other enemies. The rangers are difficult to defeat when by themselves, and the graspings will take a while due to their crippling+"Victory is Mine!" combo.
- If a caster boss spawns at the nearest boss point, this build can farm it.
- The ranger boss will kill you by inflicting daze. Do not approach him.
- Nebo Terrace HM - from Bergen Hot Springs
- Bring Troll Unguent in place of Kinetic Armor for the all-ranger groups.
- Xaquang Skyway NM - Vermin
- Bring Ward of Stability and "I am Unstoppable!" (to cover the ward's downtime) in place of Kinetic Armor and Light of Deldrimor.
- Alternate between Storm Chaser and Melandru's Resilience depending on your need for health or energy.
