Class Specific Scout Skills in RoM

Runes of Magic Spells for the Scout Primary

May 9, 2009 Tina Samuels

All of the listed skills and spells are for a Scout primary character in Runes of Magic only. These are not functional when playing a Scout secondary class.

In Runes of Magic, choosing a scout means mastering a bow and the ranged weapon. While this class is a favorite for dealing with paring down a targets hit points before it reaches the player, there are primary skills given to help with damage and with rooting a target. These class specific skills are able to be used when playing a scout primary, but not while having a scout as a secondary character.

Scout Primary Skills, Level 1-20

These are the skills for the scout primary that are between the levels of 1 and 20.

  • Serenity – Level 42 – This has an instant cast and will reset all the cooldown times for all non class specific spells for a scout.

These higher level spells for a scout will be used for damage and buffing the player to do better in battles.

A scout uses bow and crossbows to deal out ranged damage over time. These class specific skills while not being able to be used by a scout secondary will increase the ability of a scout primary to become a force in the game.
