Ranging/Trbriding
By Chimpy on 06/12/2009
Ranging, and especially trbriding, is SOOOO important in Range wars. It's what gets you ko's, and it really bruns through the person's food who's tanking. Melee attacks are nearly useless against prot melee.
However, WG doesn't seem to really see the light in range yet, and every war with range aloowed, it isn't exploited. We have 23 members with 95+ range, 20 with 99. A huge untapped potential.
At every range allowed war, we should aim to have 5-8 rangers/trbrids.
What is Tribriding you ask? It's when you have melee, binds, and range. And you Range with robes on so that you can bind. It's VERY effective, and is often the deciding factor in wars.
Here's a pic of what your setup should be.
You can put your dhide legs on if you want more range bonus. But anyways as you can see, you still have a decent mage and range bonus with this. If you're getting sniped, put on your regular range gear (dhide), with maybe rune skirt on if the sniper won't get off of you. Also you're gonna need alot more arrows, I only had 76 so smd.
It might be weird and awkward at first, but once you get used to it, it's not any harder than melee/binds.
This wins us wars, so step up and do it. In my opinion, it should be required to tribrid if you have 95+ range.
So yeah, if you want to win Melee/Binds/Range wars, like the one we have coming up vs LND, you HAVE to have alot of tribrids to win, simple as. We WILL lose if you don't take range seriously, because I guarentee you that LND will have plenty of rangers/trbrids.

What we should learn is not to fight LND
By Sxe Asher on 06/12/2009
Whats LND?
Also, some people don't have the levels to pull this off successfully. You need a really high Ranged level and Mage level (as well as Defense because as soon as people see you, you will be sniped).

rangers are amazing
tribrids get raped by snipers. not only do you not follow the pile, leaving you behind the main pile, you also are in robes and in plain view of every sniper there
you will get sniped to death immediately

Not really, just employ the same tactics if you were trbriding, just put rune on.

everyone should bring 2 styles, so if for some reason you dont bind, EVEN THOUGH YOU HAVE TO, bring range

As soon as you step out with robes or even if you stay on the pile and someone sees you in robes, you will be sniped.
As soon as you are sniped, you will have to put on rune instantly if you aren't already dead
Once they know you are binding/hyrbding, they will most likely keep a close watch on you which means whenever you try to bind/tribrid again, they will be right there to kill you.I will bring ranged nevertheless but it will be very difficulty to pull off.

How effective is ranging in rune? Btw, I am a 95 ranger, but a clueless one so sue me.

I meant rune as in fulll rune + bow with dhide top. And if you want to not be clueless, I would suggest actually trying it, practice makes perfect.

I kinda agree.
WG vs LND in CWA = WG wins
so
WG vs LND in CWA = WG loses
so
WG vs LND in PvP = ???

All kidding aside, where do you practice this other than at a war. I am still trying to bind melee without getting killed.
