Rangers have like 2 mana less / tick from a Kunark druid once Mask of the Hunter drops off. The difference is the efficiency of charming vs. ranger root rotting on the break.
Rangers can't harmony in the Bear Pits but they can lull animal. In the upper bear pits you'd need to worry about one potential spider spawn before you get the first two bear spawn....so it's that spider you'd need to root rot first. It might be a bear, which makes it easier.
I've never tried it, but in my mind you need a good bow and a tolan bracer for it to be worthwhile. Obviously some HP regen would be a huge bonus.
After that, you would have a two bear spawn. You can try to lull, and on a crit resist, root one and pull the other away. Snare, Root, camp. When you come back the snared bear would still be where you left it, and you can safely root rot that one.
By then you should have enough space to start fear kiting. I don't believe the spiders and the bears social together, so you would just need to be sure and root the bear if it tries to run up the ladder towards the tentacle terrors.
Ideally, to get away from the spiders and give yourself more room to fear kite, you want to break the lower room of bear pits. But that might be hard to do under the respawn time solo.
While fear kiting, for safety, a tash proc and slow proc weapon would be a good idea. Once the break is done you'd just be fear kiting and that's not very mana intensive.
