Ranger solo

[Baldrek]

Back in the original EQ (pre-Velious), as a lvl 50-60 Ranger, what I would do when soloing:
1) Root target
2) Cast Ensnare on target (12 minute snare, if memory is correct)
3) DoT monster (not a lot of damage, but usually more than enough to cancel-out the target's regen).
4) Dual-wield and melee target until my health is at half.
5) Root target
6) Use bow and re-root as necessary until my Regen (Chloro at 55) heals me up to full. Add in a DD every now and then if mana is not an issue.
7) Repeat steps 3-6 until target is dead.

Without the Endless Quiver AA, that takes a lot of arrows, but it worked pretty well for me. Ensnare will allow some room for error. Your DoTs and damage-shields will add some extra damage.

Granted, this was a long time ago and I'm guessing some strategies have changed.

I hope this is helpful and happy hunting.
