Blackfeather Ranger Builds & Class Guide: Lords Of The Fallen

Master the Blackfeather Ranger in Lords of the Fallen (2023). Learn starting stats (11 Str, 13 Agi), items, and find bows like Assassin's Bow.

The Blackfeather Ranger class in Lords of the Fallen (2023) is versatile, with starting stats and items that allow for flexible build paths. The class has the following starting stats: Strength 11, Agility 13, Endurance 11, Vitality 10, Radiance 8, and Inferno 8. This makes it ideal for Agility-focused playstyles, with decent Strength and Endurance, but lower Vitality and magic stats.

The starting items for the Blackfeather Ranger include:

• Blackfeather Axe
• Blackfeather Shield
• Blackfeather Bow
• Blackfeather armor (light helmet, gloves, body armor, medium legplates)
• Small Ammunition pouch

Both the Blackfeather Axe and Bow scale with Strength and Agility. The Blackfeather Ranger is the only class that starts with a bow, making it the prime choice for players dedicated to that combat style.

The Blackfeather Ranger is a versatile Agility class that scales bow attack damage. While the starting bow is weak, its scaling improves significantly as you progress. Focus on acquiring weapons with Agility scaling.

Examples of bows and their locations include:

• Bow of the Mutilated: Requires 13 Strength and 16 Agility. Found in a chest in the destroyed, flooded village in Fief.
• Bow of the Convert: Requires 16 Agility. Looted from a rooftop in Calreth Slums, near a fire mage in a wooden archer lookout spot.
• Assassin’s Bow: Requires 20 Agility, with B- scaling. Found inside a cell in the Tower of Penance.
• Udirangr Shaman Bow: Requires 13 Strength and 13 Agility, with 100 fire damage. Found in the Fief by walking from the vestige gate, reaching the end, and dropping down.

Arrow types and their locations:

• Radiant Arrows: Acquired via a balcony in the Mence area.
• Cinder Arrows: Found in Calreth City Slums on a high street level crossing over roofs. Before crossing a soul-flayed bridge, drop down to a thin gangplank area to find the item.
• Poison Arrows: Looted in the Fen, near the Vestige spot close to the first village.

Additionally, a crucial ring can be purchased from Gerlinde in the mid-game that increases the damage of bows and crossbows, making it a must-have for bow-focused builds.

Blackfeather Ranger Tips in Lords of the Fallen (2023)

• Carry Ammo Consumables: Unlike casters, your arrow count cannot be reset by resting. Always carry ammo consumables, which can be found from enemies or bought from vendors.
• Use Arrows against Low Resistance Enemies: Experiment with different arrow types (Bleed, Radiance, etc.) to exploit enemy weaknesses and increase your damage potential.
• Heavy Bow Moves: Use fully charged heavy attacks with your bow for burst damage from afar against unsuspecting enemies or slow-moving units.
• Critical Hits: Master free aiming to target weak points and land headshots for massive damage. This is a unique advantage for bow builds.
