Rangers and cultural armor

[SirAlvarex]

I will say this, if you have a higher level character, the Ivy Etched armor (exception boots) are really simple to solo. Most of the mobs are out in the open and never killed since their only purpose is making Ivy Etched armor. I knocked the Legs/Tunic out in a few hours one evening just for fun.

But honestly he'll do fine in just banded armor for a long time. Most group settings that'll be more than enough to get by. Just get him the Swiftblade and Woodsman's Staff like Ephirith said and he'll be more than fine. Oh, and the usual + hp/ac gear that goes on most twinks (rings, earrings, etc).
