Message: <blockquote data-quote="Donovan Morningfire" data-source="post: 4577243" data-attributes="member: 39532">I went with the archer option for my Elf Ranger in a bi-weekly game, primarily because of flavor and to angle for the Battlefield Archer paragon path (having the option to quarry multiple targets, especially for a high Wisdom build, is pretty appealing).In practice, I've found that at the heroic levels, I've gotten more usage out of Defensive Mobility than I would have Toughness.  Toughness would really only help with one hit, while Defensive Mobility has helped me avoid attacks (and thus damage) altogether.  For a character that's not as heavily armored or as sturdy as a defender-type, any damage I can avoid taking is great.I wouldn't mind if the archer rangers got an added perk, like maybe a way to make Prime Shot a lot more useful in a fight; I think I've only gotten to use it a grand total of twice in the campaign, and we've had plenty of fights (about two per session three-hour session).</blockquote>
