Classes: The Ranger

Rangers - Master trackers. With the skills of both a fighter and a druid, plus some unique skills of their own, rangers can be very difficult to develop and have a number of different ways to be played.

What is the best way to play a ranger? Can a ranger be soloed, and if so how? How should you play a ranger within a group? What spells and skills are the most important for the ranger? How can you develop your ranger to be the most effective? What equipment and armor should your ranger be looking for?

Post your strategies on how to best play and develop the Ranger and read, rate and comment on what others have to say.

Headshot is the key to effective grinding as a ranger. You may want to take a look at EQ:Headshot for a good idea of places you would be soloing with your rank of headshot. I recommend a cleric mercenary as a "just in case" until you get a good feel for whichever camps you're pulling and killing. Once you're rarely getting hit, pocket the merc to bump the exp gain up.

Each arrow you fire downrange is another chance to trigger headshot, so find the lowest delay bow you can. It's not easy to get your hands on, but the Bow of the Destroyer has been the fastest bow in the game since Velious, and a prize for any ranger. Once you're headshotting in Dreadspire Keep, you may want to camp a Pouch of Curses, since you can also headshot with thrown weapons, and this provides an endless supply of 15 delay stones (but don't work with Endless Quiver).

Finally, Trick Shot is an AA you should keep maxed in line with Headshot, as it significantly increases your shots per minute.
