What makes Rangers worse tanks than Shadow Knights or Paladins?

[Arteker]

Velious high end ranger is a absolute dps monster.

1: their atk natural get bosted.
2: their weapon skill get bigger.
3: they can stack up aura of battles items so bigger atk.
4: they get extra atk buffs.
5: hybrid spell casting help them to even nuke better btw mele swings and not lose dmg.
6: primal will add more atk to ranger.
7: Velious 2hs revamp make a ranger real dps become 2 hander usable to greater effect due to being the class with higher atk in game .

do not confuse actual lamenes of 2 hander in current game with what they become later in velious.

a high end 2 hander dps ranger in velious if not use as cannon fodder for weapon shield , something irrelavtrn with mallets and clikys uses, can be easily pull in more dmg than monks with 2handers and tripple atatck and closing in to rogues more than they would like .

Side-note/tangent: I had this group comp in MM 2 weeks ago. Two rogues (epic'd) were tabbed out half the fights, the cleric had an attitude, barely remembered to sit and the enchanter would try to mez things his pet was blatantly attacking without trying to call it off. We wiped a couple times. It was heart breaking

Couple days ago did ranger, monk, monk, bard. Chain pulled red cons in CoM and never had downtime.

A good composition can't beat experienced players.

Epic rogue twinks are entitled, whiny, bad players.

Mezzing something his pet was attacking is unforgiveable, but how would you suggest the chanter "call off" his pet?

Lol. I tried to think of how I could have killed him without the lay hands, but I don't think I could have unless with some shenanigans about mobs that don't heal themselves if rooted and not in melee. Guess I could have interruptnuked a couple heals? Fuckin rangers [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Shit. Forgot beta rangers have disciplines. That would have helped a little.

Rogues tank better than rangers. Bring it rangers

pretty sure there is a long write up about worn ac, shown ac, and actual ac and how chain ac stacks up vs plate. it doesnt.

ranger roughly translates to lilbitchnig in old erudian

With C2 its not the end of the world for a cleric to heal a ranger MT, but most rangers are often trying to prove a point and pull quickly to justify their group place.

Often that becomes mana inefficient if they're getting constantly pounded on but they can do trivial content, stuff that's close to light blue etc.
