Sharpshooter builds?
Some of the skills feel useless. I feel like a caster then an actually AA hero/champion.
i run:
scouts bones
Goblin Legion
Rizzis Fate
Heart Seeker
Explosive Arrow

I like to use Ghost Visage, put down Rizi, Sacrifice Goose, and then do full blast Scatter Shots as much as my Ghost Visage lasts. Rinse repeat. You can't die if you play your cards right, and you can set up giant burst combos with Scatter Shot when your targets are debuffed with the other abilities mentioned.

Ghost Visage reminds me of playing a Demon Hunter on Inferno difficulty when Diablo 3 was first released.

Curious to hear what others are using on Ranger. I am only level 37 currently, and this is my first alpha, so I dunno the game that well as others might.

I'm lvl 48 on my Sharpshooter I just finished the alpha with. This is the build I use.

Ghost Visage for movement

Combo>
Rizi for slow debuff>
Goose dmg vulnerability debuff>
Scouts bones for poison>
Relic Bane more poison>
Tight grouping (aoe cleanup)

Rinse and repeat.

Use Ghost Visage to move through the enemy and along with Scouts bones and Relic Bane to stack poison. Lock them down with Rizi and Goose. Alternatively you can use Rizi's bonus to immobilize elites and bosses then continue with the combo. Experiment with the bonuses, they are listed in the skill description.

To compliment the build further try to get gear with knockback, crit chance and crit dmg. The only honorable mention for skills to try would be Curse of Pi'pi but it's up to you to choose which skill to sacrifice, I usually trade off with Ghost Visage but you gotta be extra careful of your positioning.

I didn't like any of the other skills and I maxed them on another character to test them out, Explosive shot and Heart Seeker were both underwhelming, I like Tight Grouping more than Scatter Shot. Reload can be usefull if you are using two Precision skills other than that I wouldn't put anything into it.

My two cents.

Also, Targeted Strikes was kinda cool along with Tight Grouping but it's kinda garbo. I'd recommend against it. Tight Grouping is superior in my own honest opinion.
