Wartales classes Ranger leveling character specializations

Wartales is a tactical strategy RPG game with an open world. In Wartales, players can take control of their squad during the Middle Ages, where they can explore the world, recruit fighters and uncover the secrets of ancient tombs. Heroes need to find or create good equipment, weapons and armor in order to successfully resist gangs of bandits.

A lot of importance, on the battlefield, has the correct character setup when pumping specializations. Players themselves choose the desired build of characters from different classes. Each character of the corresponding class has its own subclasses. Sub classes give certain priorities and can completely change the tactics of combat. To increase the chances of winning, you need to properly configure the characters and choose the right specializations.

Features of the “Forester” class in the game Wartales.

The Ranger can choose his primary specialization starting at level 3, rather than at level 2 like other melee characters. You can choose one of the three abilities “Thug”, “Strategist”, Poisoner”. The forester is a very interesting character, he is kind of like a melee warrior, at the same time his position is behind his comrade.  priority of the forest ranger is that he has one of the largest radii of movement around the battlefield.

The principle of the battle is approximately the following, our friend enters a duel, and the forester comes running and hammers the dueling opponent in the back. This strategy is based on light armor. The ranger cannot wear medium or heavy armor, so he is not able to duel with strong enemies for a long time. He needs to pick up weak opponents in the nearest radius and be sure to be protected by his comrades.

  • Cutthroat, attack support, in the game Wartales.

When pumping, you need to immediately navigate from the name of the specialization. A thug is a character that attacks the backs of opponents with the help of an ally. That is, it is a kind of killer. Therefore, the desired battle tactic is to wait for the right moment and be the last one from the squad to make a move. This way it will be easier to select suitable targets for attacking with a special ability.

The thug can be equipped with light armor, one-handed weapons. For the main attack, such a weapon as a sharpened sax is suitable. In the other hand, you can put on a throwing ax, throwing knife, incendiary flask. That is, in the second hand, you can put on any throwing weapon. But shields cannot be put on, the thug cannot be equipped with additional protection.

– Second level.

At the second level, the thug is offered to choose options for replenishing valor. You can choose any of the available ones, from this millet the tactics of the combat process will change a little. The most suitable ones are “Glorious Victory” for finishing off opponents from the back and “Glorious Support” is needed for constantly being near an ally. We recommend pumping the Glorious Victory ability. In this case, we attack the enemy in a duel with a friend, when there is not enough health left and attack him.

As for Valorous Insolence, the ability is questionable, as the fighter may be drawn into combat after the turn ends. Therefore, Valorous Insolence’s ability may not be effective. The same can happen with the Glorious Support ability, which needs to keep its distance from the enemy. At the same time, one of the enemies can still attack the thug, as it is weakly armored.

– The third level.

At the third level, we get the “Frenzy” ability, which deals 4-5 damage to the back of the enemy. Additionally, the “Sneak” ability can be activated, which gives additional attacks on the enemy. For additional attacks to work, you need to attack opponents who are in a duel (battle) with our friend. In this case, the attack with the “Rage” ability must be made in the back of the enemy. The cost of using the ability is 2 Valor.

– Fifth level.

The most suitable ability for a thug at level 5 is Poisoned Weapon. Since the thug will use the main ability when attacking from the back. In this case, “Poisoned Weapon” will work, and will make it possible to impose a poison effect on the enemy. Poison deals 5% of your total health to the enemy. As a result, the thug becomes a very effective character on the battlefield.

Conclusion on the character of a thug in the game Wartales.

It is advisable not to take more than 1 thug in the squad, since he is not able to fight heavily armored enemies one on one for a long time without the support of his comrades. At the same time, his desirable targets are archers and melee enemies who are in a duel with some ally. As a result, the thug is a purely attacking support. If you take more than one thug into the squad, then the fights can be very difficult.

With the right application and good tactics on the battlefield, the cutthroat performs well. It is important not to let strong enemies attack and try to attack opponents in a duel whose armor has been demolished. Thus, the weapon works better, the number of attacks is produced more and the poison is triggered. It can be very useful on the battlefield with well-practiced tactics.

  • Strategist, support for the withdrawal from the duel, in the game Wartales.

The strategist is a melee character to support comrades. Its main purpose is to discard unnecessary opponents or keep opponents away from any place. The strategist can be equipped with light armor, one-handed weapons and thrown weapons. Probably, from a throwing weapon, an incendiary flask is most suitable.

– Second level.

For remote location of the strategist.

Of the available abilities at the second level, the strategist is most suitable for Glorious Support or Valorous Insolence. With the desired position out of combat and far from enemies, Glorious Support will do. In this case, you need to be close to the ally and not engage in battle, which will often occur on the battlefield. Support and being close to an ally is due to the presence of light armor. If these points are observed, then the strategist will receive 1 unit of valor. In this case, you will have to keep a large distance.

For direct contact with the enemy.

If the preference for tactics is to be near opponents, which is also quite common, then we select “Valiant audacity”. In this case, you will need to be close to the enemy and not engage in battle after the end of the turn. There will be many moments where you will have to be close to opponents, but it will not always be possible not to engage in battle.

– The third level.

At the third level, the strategist gains the Smoke Screen ability. Upon cast, causes enemies fighting in the area to retreat. In this case, enemies provoke an attack to inflict on themselves if they are in a duel with a comrade. Attack of opportunity deals 100% of Strength or Agility. However, the Smoke Screen ability cannot be used while the Strategist is in a duel.

– Fifth level.

For remote location of the strategist.

The “Knife Throw” ability is suitable, as the strategist needs to be constantly out of combat. In this case, the main ability is performed remotely within a radius of 8 meters. With this in mind, Knife Throw will allow you to passively attack enemies from a distance. There will definitely not be an extra safe attack on the battlefield.

For direct contact with the enemy.

Or the ability “Killer Contract”, which imposes the fragility effect on nearby enemies. Brittleness increases incoming damage by 30%. The Killer Contract ability works in passive mode, you just need to be close to the enemy. At the same time, it will not be superfluous to support an ally who is fighting a nearby enemy.

Conclusion on the character of a strategist, in the game Wartales.

At the beginning of pumping, you need to decide in what tactics to use a strategist on the battlefield. The strategist can be in the role of remote support and support in close contact with the enemy. The greater effectiveness of the use of the strategist is probably in close contact with the enemy and finding a fighting comrade. It will also be important to have the right throwing weapon. As an independent character in battles with enemies, the strategist is not suitable, because of the light armor.

A great effect is felt when the strategist is with a strong comrade and fights with the enemy. A strong ally can deal good standard damage, and in addition with the Smokescreen ability activated, the ally gets +100%. In this case, the attack of a comrade becomes unanswered if the enemy survives during the retreat. A very good ability when you need to get an ally out of a duel position.

  • Poisoner, offensive support, in the game Wartales.

The Poisoner from the existing classes of the character “Forester” is a rather peculiar long-range unit. It does not seem to carry the main ranged weapon and is a melee representative. At the same time, he cannot be in a duel battle with an enemy in medium or more armor for a long time, due to the presence of light armor. Therefore, his main tactic is to hit and run, without close contact with the enemy. Such actions roll thanks to thrown weapons and abilities.

The Poisoner’s main weapons are a one-handed sword and a thrown weapon. The shield can certainly increase the chances of survival, but not very much. In most cases, it is advisable for the poisoner not to engage in combat with melee opponents and to keep their distance. Quite possible melee opponents are archers, who do not have good defense.

Desirable pumping “Poisoner”:

– Second level.

All of the possible abilities “Valiant Insolence”, “Glorious Victory” and “Glorious Support” are a little controversial, it seems that everything can do. But, on the battlefield, everything depends on the chosen tactics. You can download what suits you best. In our case, we recommend leveling Glorious Support, as the poisoner will be in a better position next to the ally.

– The third level.

The main specialization “Vial of Poison” can be chosen for the poisoner at the third level. Vial of Poison ability gives you the ability to inflict poison on all enemies in an area of 9 meters. Poisoned enemies lose 5% of their maximum health at the end of their turn. Can accumulate and thus increase the percentage of damage dealt. Additionally, the enemy receives the “Vulnerability” effect, which allows you to make a critical attack on him with the next blow. The cast cost is 1 Valor and lasts for 3 turns.

The ability works well on heavily armored opponents. Poison can take health points even with full armor, which has a very positive effect on the battle process. In addition, if the opponent is in a duel, he risks getting the next attack with critical damage. Thanks to this, it becomes much easier to fight strong opponents.

– Fifth level.

The most suitable ability for a poisoner, at the fifth level, is Knife Throw. Since the poisoner needs to keep a distance from the enemy, at least about 8 meters, in order to increase survival. At the same time, being at a distance, you still need to somehow inflict damage on opponents, taking into account the main melee weapon. That’s what the Knife Throw ability is for. The damage is small, however, the possibility of an additional remote attack is there.

Knife Throw allows you to deal 3 damage to the nearest target within 8 meters after using the skill. In our case, there were 2 opponents in the area of ​​action and the damage went to the one on whom we attack with the skill. However, Knife Throw procs in Passive Mode and deals 3 damage each time it uses a skill attack in one turn.

Conclusion on the class “Poisoner”, in the game Wartales.

Most likely at the very beginning of the game, when there are few fighters in the squad, it is better not to pump the poisoner. Since he fights poorly in close combat and his main purpose is to support. On the battlefield, the poisoner needs protection and must act in tandem with a friend. When there are few allies in the squad, then someone has to take the attention of opponents and fight in duels. Therefore, it is advisable to start pumping the poisoner when you already have a set of melee classes.

Conclusion on the character “Forester”, in the game Wartales.

Of all the available characters, the Forest Ranger is the most difficult to control due to light armor and primary melee weapons. You have to choose a location and select opponents to attack. All available classes at the forester, you need to constantly be next to a friend. It seems that the support of the forester is good, but if he remains one on one with the enemy, then there will be almost no effectiveness.

Of the listed classes “Thug”, “Strategist” and “Poisoner”, the “Forester” has the most effective “Thug” and “Strategist”. The Thug is very good when allies duel, you just need to go from behind and attack the enemy. There are a lot of moments of attack from the back. The strategist allows you to reset the dueling position of comrades with an additional attack on the dueling opponent and tries to be behind the backs of comrades.

But, the poisoner is needed to take out health to strong opponents and keep a distance. In terms of playing a thug and a strategist, everything is simple, you need to stay behind the backs of your comrades. The Poisoner needs to run closer to the enemies, deal damage with the main ability and immediately retreat behind the backs of his comrades. Or to make attacks while behind the backs of comrades. On the battlefield, the character “Forest”, a lot depends on the chosen tactics.
