Want to create a Ranger

[nilzark]

I want to start a Ranger, but I don't want to spend the next 5 years of my life leveling. Any suggestions?

Classic.

There aren't class exp penalties anymore, so I'm not sure what the issue would be? As with any melee class when it comes to leveling, the most important thing is having a good weapon and being in good groups. So focus your money on getting as good a weapon as possible and then get in a leveling guild.

Get to level 22. Track animals, share and fear to 60. Always have Call of Fire/ Sky etc on.

Or group.

Make a ranger you will not regret it. But if you putter out half way through the journey you will regret it.

60 rangers are underestimated. Their tracking nets then huge profits.

share and fear to 60

Snaring might work better though.

Nope! Get a good bow and go archer stuff to victory!!

Play red, we love rangers

The best advice I can give you is:

1) Play what you want to play. Maybe you get the ranger to 30 and it doesn't line up with what you thought it'd be, or maybe you love it and get to 60. Either way, as long as you're having fun it don't matter. Ranger is a good class now without the Exp penalty and shouldn't be as scorned as before, but...

2) Get into a leveling guild. Pick up groups can be snobs sometimes, and there's no shortage of twinked monks/rogues on this server. Having a group of buddies or at least players who are familiar with one another make the leveling grind much less painful. Plus you have a cadre of levelers ready to head off the beaten path rather than sitting at a zoneline waiting for a spot to open.

Good luck! Ranger is a really fun class. Once you learn to make use of all your tools, a good ranger brings a lot to a group.

Did you level that way pre-velious/xp penalty? Oh my god the sheer amount of arrows to kill a low blue. It's so much easier now with all the cool bows and stuff.

The good news is rangers are rangers from level one, so you don't need to do any levelling at all to play one!
