What's the point of playing Ranger?

It appeals to players who want to play a fighter and want access to nature-themed spells. You should try it, its fun.

Isn't a Ranger just a Druid with much weaker spells, no ports, no charm and no quad kiting?

Congrats, you figured out Verant didn't know what to do with hybrids.

I'd prefer people think rangers are awful so it's easier to get gear. Took me like 8 months to get my SEoC because, I assume, I'm so inspiring that new rangers kept showing up. My Tolan's BP was super, super expensive. Imagine not getting your sky cloak on your first sky raid. It's horrifying to think about. I missed a wave of like 5 new rangers.


Fungi, Epics, Sky Cloak. Get those 3 and class is pretty good. Sucks till then. I'd also suggest Sword of Rile.

100%. I've always been a "chip on the shoulder" gamer. If everyone decided it was the class to play I'd probably try to find a less popular one to spend time with, lol.

I actually have only done like 3 sky raids since our raid day doesnt align with my game schedule. Double loot drop got me it finally. It's fun being a weird squishy monk!

Rangers have double damage on non-rooted targets, bow crits, a bow disc, some powerful ranger-only bows, a high bow skill cap, and the ability to make very nice arrows via fletching. There are even a bunch of bow quests for rangers.

Sorry you are fixating on a quiver icon instead of actually playing a game for fun. Consider rerolling an ogre warrior.

Congrats on your cloak! That's a game changer. Glad you got lucky on 2x. I'd suggest not engaging with the obvious troll unless it amuses you.

You're looking at it from the perspective of a petty poopsock who's pretending to be a ranger in a 23 year old broken game. Maybe you want them to be broken so nobody plays them except you.

I'm looking at it from the point of view of a games design perspective. Rangers aren't Rangers on P99.

Rangers are supposed to be good with bows like Rogues are with daggers.

It's not rocket science.

Telling me they are good with bows at L60 with BIS is BS.

Good, go back to living a lie pretending you're wise, strong and heroic and take that pond life with you.

It should be illegal for pond life like you two to play and speak on behalf of rangers (or any race/class for that matter).

You two should be gasoline in my truck fuel tank, not giving opinions.

I guess I have to put up with the bad if I want the good, and u two seem happy to be bad so at some point we'll meet. I'll be the one waving hello/goodbye to you as you enter my fuel tank. You'll be the one carrying me to the beach.
