Most gear dependent non-tank?

[darkreap]

I feel that rangers get the biggest upgrade from gear. Monks mitigate damage well regardless and have so many options for weapons that they will out dps most warriors/rangers and some rogues. They are solo beasts already.

Rangers on the other hand are weak dps and have terrible damage mitigation. They are relatively poor soloers but if you get them some high end items, they can increase their damage output and mitigation to levels that rival (decent) geared monks.

Fungi tunic
Earthcaller/swiftwind
Dark cloak of the sky
Quest some HoT armor and BoBs
ToV main hand weapon and you’re set.

A ranger with Ntov weapons, BFG, dark cloak of the sky, Earthcaller, Tolan BP, Tolan bracer is a completely different class. I’d still enjoy a basic ranger but the flexibility of a top tier one is notable. Especially with wolf form, 8dmg arrows and meme disc dps for 2mins.

Monks and warriors scale the best with top gear but they are pretty damn great with the basics too. A IFS or Peacebringer monk at 60 with a very easy epic is a solid melee for anyone.

I've never heard of a well geared ranger doing anything particularly cool solo or in raids, but would love to hear stories.

Trueshot / BFG dps on certain raid targets is a fun party trick, but is there anything else?
