Rangers are very fun to explore on, and arrow kiting isn't entirely worthless. It's not great but it can be useful as a way to start every solo'ing melee fight with the enemy at 90% hp.

As a ranger you will most likely either be puller or tank. I usually find myself tanking on my ranger about 70% of the time in groups. Ranger does a bit of everything, puller, tank, CC and dps. At later levels with epics and sky cloak, a ranger/cleric combo can be as good as shaman/monk if there are easy pulls or rootable adds. I have never leveled a pally but it seems like they have less tools in their bag for a bit more ac and less dps. My vote is ranger!

Ranger / Necro is an awesome combo too.

As a Paladin lover myself, I would say go Ranger.
Paladin's are a special kind of taste that most dont like. | ||

One important thing I got to mention if you roll a ranger.
Please get a fire beetle eye at lvl 2-5, and keep it forever. I grouped with two rangers today, neither had a fire beetle eye, and both had to take tanking responsiblities at one point for the group. I found it amazing anyone can get to 45-50 level as a ranger and NOT have a fire beetle eye on them! So you know, fire beetle eyes are needed for you to cast your most important spell as a ranger, FLAME LICK! This spell grants you snap aggro similar to a paladin's blind. As a ranger, eventually you will be thrust into the tanking position and this spell is a must have! | ||

I think Paladin is awesome and has a ton of utility. It's definitely not for everyone but I have a lot of fun.

Either way you go, both classes are great for RP.

Paladin being able to spot heal and rez gives it a different feel than the tracking and easier traveling rangers have. But like someone else said, do you want to tank or dps? That's the most important. On live, I played a ranger from the earliest days, all the way up to 85 with 1500
AA. I also played a twink pally up to 65 and another pally up to 71 (and 85 upgrade). So I've played both classes. It's like this: Paladin = tank + cleric Ranger = weak-tank + dps + druid You might have better luck getting groups with the pally because of their tanking. Don't forget LOH. And like the ranger can snare mobs that run, pallies can stun mobs that heal themselves (like the kobold casters in velks).
