I like to use a variation of a Ranger/Mage with also using melee weapons.
I love the magic spells, using a bow many times and search different strategies
I played in the past mostly such builds, but each time with trying other skills ...
this time I go for a Intelligence oriented build, searching for the best magical bows, magical swords etc ... that gives me a good magical damage value & my magical spells are also stronger ...
I play in past on "normal" or just "easy", but since a few months I wish only to play on nightmare mode !
It's fun to have some challenge ! In DKS the flying Fortresses I find so much better comparing them with the original Ego Draconis version ! (and many more things that are better now)
My favorite skills (so far) are:
Summon Ghost, Explosive Arrows, Firewall, Magic Missile, Master Herbalist, Rush Attack, Fear & Stun Arrows. For sure I forget to write down more of my fav skills ... I love almost all skills, difficult to decide which skill I wish to invest more points in ...
