35 Ranger needs gear advice!

[mattitude]

Hey guys,

Just looking to upgrade some equipment.. Looking for a woodman's staff currently for a weapon upgrade. I guess im looking for upgrades that would be worth it in the long run to last me until 50+. Have around 10k I can spend including what I need for the woodsman's. do about 50% soloing/ 50% grouping - Also seem to have to tank 75% of the time when I group - no warriors/paladins/sks around I guess hah.

Ears: Cougar Claw Earrings
Neck: Spider Fur Collar
Head: Foreman's Skullcap
Face: Antlered Mask
Fingers: Velium Fire Wedding Rings
Wrist: Bracer of Vajeen, Hero Bracer
Arms: Mithril
Hands: Kobold Bone Gauntlets
Shoulder: Mantle of Absorption
Back: Tigeraptor Cloak
Waist: FBSS
Chest: Iksar Bp - how long should I keep it?
Feet: Lodizal Sheel Boots
Legs: Mithril legs - dark scale greaves worth it?
Weapons: Lamentation and CSS - looking for woodsman's

I'd keep Iksar BP until you get your fungi personally.

Longterm upgrades you are going to be looking at Magic Resist, HP and AC. But really you are better off just saving plat for a Woodsman, Fungi, and then either pay for Epic or save for a better haste item. The rest of the pieces really just don't matter that much and aren't worth spending several thousand plat per spot on.

Yea i agree, prioritize ac/hp/stam over str, but ideally dont buy items that will depreciate. just save for fungi and epics.

jewelery seems to hold its value if you need to swap for some hp stuff, but again, just hold off if you can.

when grouping your current set should be more than sufficient.

for soloing just ask nice druids/shamans for buffs in tunnel or druid rings before a good xp sesh.
