Lancet, I've been using the guide you have posted on Game FAQs and it's been a big help, so I'm glad you're on this forum so I can say "Thank you." I have a question/comment on one of the Ranger skills, explosive arrows. You mention how powerful this skill is and I notice that in my version of the game, the damage starts at 130 points, half the 260 points you mention in your guide. It looks like the game developers realized that this skill could tip the balance of the game. I mean, it's only natural to want to hammer every enemy in your path, but I agree that it would quickly take the challenge out of the game. I'm just re-working my character at the Battle Tower and I think I'll put a few point into it. Even at half-speed it still looks awesome.
If you have either the DKS version, or the ED+FoV patch, Explosive Arrows uses the lower numbers they changed it to. As it was, it was EXTREMELY overpowered. They reduced the damage by half at early levels, and by a third at later levels. Even now, it's still pretty good for AoE damage on any character build, just not quite as completely overpowered.
