What is the verdict on this? my Rangers has 3 x 3.0  ... 2 in the Bow or 4 in the Swords... if it's 4 in the swords, would it be better to replace the ranger for bard and put 2 in each of 3.0? 

thanks

I think the swords just need to lose some of these augs slots instead of constantly add to bow.

Also, there is a maximum of 4 slots per item allowed.

so you can only have a max of 4 of the same aug per toon, ...good to know

if so would ranger with 4 NS augs be better than say a bard with 4 NS augs?

The ranger can make use of a high physical damage on weapon instead of adding more aug slots. We would need some honest parses to start making changes to something like this.

Make it too strong, everyone shifts to one class, it gets normalized, shitstorm.
Make it too weak, no one cares, time wasted.

Make the bow and arrow better. Its a ranger, they do ranged dps. Or just delete the class. Wouldnt effect many if ranger didnt exist tomorrow ;p

How did you get 4 of the same aug per toon out of 4 aug slots per item?

You can have as many per toon that you can fit in all of their items, however no single item can have more than 4 slots.

Heh I've never been a fan of the class, going back to when rangers on EZ were *the dps*
Of course I guess they get some pretty decent spells now or something.
How I feel about rangers is how Hate feels about paladins.

I feel about the same way, they are like little clingon toilet paper hanging off your ass hairs that you have to rip off. Incidentally when augs first came out and we got NS augs rangers had 3 slots on the 3.0 that they could put NS into. It proved to be way too much dps and was nerfed very quickly.

Yeah it was OP wasnt it. I was to lame to finish epic and get augs for the rangers so I just kept them retired.
I am wondering if a UW bow might prove to be "zomg dps"

Could very well be. I remember there were some who managed to get 3 NS5 in their bows before the change, lol. Worked out pretty good for them till the new epics came out.

So..... revisiting this. 

Has anyone parsed the new epic 7.0 or higher? 
Or are 2x Swords still the way to go just because of the sheer number of augs?

One thing I did notice, and not sure if you've been informed of this, H or H....

Epic bows

(sorry, image wouldnt insert)

I know its not huge, since most of the damage from the bow isnt white damage, but thats losing 25% base damage by going to the aug and LP bow.
