The Wizard is a powerful class in Dark And Darker

We've opted to keep Field Ration around as our top ability pick as that health regen can be really powerful - however, if you are running in a group with a Cleric you might want to change this out for one of the other abilities Dark And Darker Gold, like Multishot. We've also kept Quick Shot because it's honestly just broken.

In terms of perks, we've gone for Nimble Hands, Sharpshooter, Kinesthesia, and Enhanced Hearing. Here's our reasoning for picking each of these perks.

Nimble Hands - Faster reload animation, essentially. Great for getting a lot of damage out of your bow quickly and useful in both PvE and PvP.

Sharpshooter - Extra headshot damage shouldn't be sniffed at - it's one of the deadliest things in the game, as long as you hit your shots.

Kinesthesia - Like Nimble Hands, having extra movement when your bow is drawn is great for PvP and PvE alike.

Enhanced Hearing - Footsteps are really loud in Dark And Darker, but you know what's even better? When they're even louder. Players like to be very sneaky in the game, so if have the drop on them by hearing a scuffle in the shadows, you're at an advantage.

Best Ranger Gear To Look Out For

Here's a look at some of the best gear pieces and weapons you should be looking out for while playing as the Ranger.

- The best gear you can get in Dark And Darker for the Ranger, is, funnily enough, the Ranger Set. You can get a Ranger Hood and a Ranger chestpiece that boost attributes like movement speed and damage. Typically, just pick up the best stated gear you can find.

- In terms of weapons, the Longbow is fantastic. It deals a load of damage from pretty much any range. You can also experiment with the Recurve bow, although you will need a much rarer (orange spec) bow to deal as much damage as a Longbow.

- You should experiment with the melee Spear build as it is viable and quite fun.

Ranger Gameplay Tips

Here are a few tips to improve your Ranger gameplay.

- Movement speed is a great stat to focus on, both for PvE and PvP. You should always be trying to disengage with an enemy, reposition, take a shot, take cover, etc.

- Ranger is actually a really decent solo class for Dark And Darker because you can kill enemies from afar and lay traps everywhere to catch enemy players out.

- Be careful with your bow. Team damage is deadly in this game. One shot in the back of the head, and you're done for.

- As a solo, play in the shadows, remove torches, try and get sneak headshots on enemies.

The Wizard is the mage class in Dark And Darker. Wielding either a Staff or a Spell Book, the Wizard can deal massive damage while also providing buffs for their team. Much like the Ranger, the Wizard is a glass cannon, but that damage output (especially the fireballs) make the class a lot of fun to play.
