SW renown points attribution

Post#1 » Tue May 19, 2026 7:39 am

Hello,
I'm currently setting up a scouting/skirmish SW. What offensive and defensive renown points do you recommend for small groups of 6 to 12 players?

Thank you for your answers.

- Futile Strikes II or III is almost a must have, especially in smaller scale. Less crits on you means living longer and giving healers and tanks more time to react. Be careful with Bullseye tactic. It increases your chance to be crit.

- Deft Defender III. It is cheap and gives a lot of value. The SHs are like machine guns. It is always good to evade a few shots. Sorcs are also nasty.

- Rest in Crit and Weaponskill for Skirmish spec. Id recommend you to go skirmish with WS talis in armor and do AOE shots/dots. That's the strongest SW build atm.

How you balance your defensive vs offensive abilities depends on your skill and group. Just see how often you are dying, adopt and overcome.

Futile Strikes is useless as a SW. If you get cought you die regarless of whats you chance to be crit it. You defense is being mobile.

Go pure glass cannon with full Crit and Weapon Skill and put the rest where you want.

Tactics: Masterful Aim, Instinctive Aim, Powerful Draw, No respite (for pug blobs you can go split arrows)

Your AOE is Barrage and Lileath Arrow. Don't use Flame Arrow.
