Ive been toying with making a semi twinked alt. I dont have the funds for things like fungi tunic, but certainly a decent set of armor, a woodsman staff, etc. i know rangers are not top tier soloers and have read through this thread and various guides linked. My main is a shaman (closing in on 50) and a bard who i strictly duo with my buddy (shaman) in the mid 40s. I am interested in making an alt because I miss just running around and exploring the early content. Ranger just seems like a fun class with the tools they have. So my question is. Given a rangers ability to solo, be it face tankng, bow kiting, fear kiting animals, etc. if I stick to camps that are 6 minute spawns ie bard diet, deputy guards, easy camps where one can set a timer and walk away. Will the 6 minutes of downtime be enough to recoup my hp and mana? Is this doable as far as kill speed? Again I know ranger is not the best soloer or the fastest. I just want to know if it is viable without sinking more than 8-10k in the character. Also for this play style, wood or half elf?
