I did do that. I was nowhere near the efficiency of a necro, not to mention the fact that I had to find qualifying animals.
The reality... fear breaks, or is resisted or you are interrupted. In each of these cases the MOB gets a few seconds to beat on you. You lose health, as a ranger I can tell you that you last marginally longer than a cloth class. That means you need to self-heal, our heals were bad, our mana pool was tiny... which also means you need to med. Even if I never got hit, our mana pool was so small that self-buffs and fear, snare spell casts meant I had to med every handful of MOBS.
Also, even in very good gear at the time, I am not killing any animal worth decent exp too quickly. You still have to hunt blues. Reds and yellows will resist fear too many times.

This times 100.
I spent a lot of time in Eastern Wastes because I could solo there. That being said I would have to stay near the bridge to Ice Clad and pray I didn't get a lot of resist. I also couldn't do it on my own, I had to have crack or KEI to do so. Can Rangers solo, sure. Most would rather have a group though.
