It allows you to utilize your strongest damage skills up to three times. This deadly weapon is the best counter against Stealth in the game since it can reveal and stun enemies. Longow deals high damage at range.

In Throne and Liberty, skills are abilities you can use and change depending on your equipped weapons.

Moreover, skills come in three forms – active, passive, and defensive.

Best Weapons Choice

The Longbow in Throne and Liberty is designed around crits and offering cooldown resets on major damage-dealing skills. Therefore, the Longbow allows you to consecutively use your strongest damage skills up to three times. You can control your targets at range by accessing Roots. You’ll also have access to the only counter to Stealth in the game, revealing and stunning health targets. Longbow specializes in long-range sniping, binding enemies from behind, and dealing maximum damage.

The off-hand weapon for the Best Ranger Longbow Build is Crossbow. It gives you access to mobility, including a bind and movement speed reduction cleanse. This weapon also has built-in cooldown reduction mechanics, further enhancing its overall speed and damage output. Crossbows are fast and deal a lot of damage. They play much more like a melee class than a ranged one and have weak AOE damage.

Staff is the other weapon that works well with the Longbow in the Ranger Build. The Staff is a magic damage ranged weapon in Throne and Liberty. It offers crowd control skills in PvE that are best for stunning enemies and removing threats. Staff in Throne and Liberty depends on Mana and heavy attacks. This weapon can cause massive damage if you effectively rotate your abilities.

Along with AoE damage, Staff also provides single-target damage based on your chosen skills. It creates huge explosions and is the best bet for you to level up and clear the objectives in the game. It has lower DPS for a ranged weapon.

Defensive skills allow you to defend against attacks. Enemies will have a Fury Attack, a purple circle drawing to a central point. You can defend against the Fury Attack using your defensive skill at the precious moment for a perfect defense. Each weapon has its defensive skill, which consumes stamina instead of mana, shown on the left of your user interface when used. Special effects occur when you successfully defend against a Fury Attack. Timing is vital for maximizing your build’s potential.

Weapon Mastery

The best weapon mastery tree for the Best Ranger Build is Sniping from the Longbow and Move from Crossbow.

Below are the best weapon mastery selections in Throne and Liberty using the Ranger Longbow Build.

• Longbow- Use 9 points on Sniping for ranged hit and then switch to Check to help with range damage.
• Crossbow- Consume 9 points into Move and then swap to Chain Fire to obtain Brutal Wound.

Weapon Mastery gives you experience for your equipped weapon proportional to the experience earned. Thus, at the start of the game, Weapon Mastery points are limited, but you will start earning more as your experience per kill and quest increase with level and zones. Your main hand weapon gains increased weapon mastery.

Best Stat Points

The most important stat for the Ranger Longbow build is Dexterity, and it is followed by Strength.

Below are the best recommended stat points:

• 32 Strength: affects defense, maximum health, maximum damage, and minimum damage.
• 44 Dexterity: affects critical attack, evasion, and maximum damage.
• 19 Wisdom: affects maximum mana and mana regeneration, skill cooldown, and maximum damage.
• 26 Perception: effect accuracy of attacks, Crowd Control effects, enhancing time boost ability, maximum damage, and minimum damage.

In Throne and Liberty, stat points are earned while leveling and increasing your effectiveness.  When you spend a stat point, you increase the effectiveness of that related attribute. However, after a certain number of points, you reach diminishing returns, and two points are required to increase a stat rather than one. Moreover, once stats reach a certain level spent (30 or greater), you gain unique bonuses.

Guardian

Pale Nemesis Hartach is the best Guardian for the Ranger Longbow build because it acts as both a defensive and offensive Guardian if used perfectly, enabling you to morph by marking the Guardian’s power onto your character.

Lady Knight Kamarshea is another Guardian you can use due its cooldown reduction and mana shield. If you have enough survivability, look to Masked Warlock Dantalux and the skill Abyssal Sanctuary for increased burst damage.

Guardians act as a short-term ultimate or super ability with powerful effects and a long cooldown. Enhance your strength by choosing the right one. Complete Chapter 25 and reach level 25 to acquire Guardians. Increase your Ranger Build potential by learning how to gain additional guardians. Keep in mind that these skills are used within 10 minutes.
