From what I hear both are very scarce. You may find more groups with a warrior, but if you wanna solo go with a ranger? :shrug: Hope I helped, btw, I've only been on this server a day or so...so you know...wait for some other people to pitch lol, just giving my 2cp.

sorry i couldnt resist. but honestly, warriors.

but really, play what you like, rangers are still sought after for tracking or filler dps.

Rangers generally aren't needed, because they don't fill any unique role or do anything better than everyone else. There's not a lot of them, but it's hard to call it a shortage when a lack of rangers is so inconsequential.

There's a severe shortage of tanks, and warriors are the best raid tanks. There isn't a crippling lack of them, but a tank is what most groups end up lacking after it has everything else. Playing a warrior in this era tends to be pretty horrible, though, and the gear is awfully expensive. It doesn't get really good until you're sporting a pair of SSoY and preferably a haste item as well. These are prohibitively expensive for anyone's first character, and also pretty much perma-camped.

Aren't most classes pretty inconsequential? You can do the whole game with war/cle/enc if you wanted to. The rest is just flavor.

As a ranger, I am telling you. Play a warrior if you enjoy being in a group.

Kromwell has been rejected due to groups having to share my -40% exp penalty.

Granted rangers probably aren't very useful in raids later on, pre-37 they're probably better tanks than warriors, since they can actually hold aggro. They also have slight CC abilities. So basically, they're like Bards but shittier.

I swear i read that the -40% exp penalty doesn't apply to groups on p99. They left the penalty for hybrids and for races, but did not make it apply to groups.
