Ranger or Monk?

Klaq · #1 10-13-2013, 10:52 AM

So I played P1999 for about a year, and just now starting up again. I have a 40's Ranger and 40's Monk (and various other low-levels). I also have a fungi and about 100k.

My question WAS going to be, which should I focus on equipping (twinking) up, getting to 60, etc.

But, I know everyone will say the Monk. Any arguments for going Ranger? Are they in need at all? The server seems to have a sh!t ton of monks already is all.

If it makes a difference, I mostly solo due to playing odd hours. Thanks for any tips.

Might be easier to get some ranger drops in planes due to less competition, and rangers get some nice sky items. Not sure how in demand tracking will be in Velious but tbh I don't think it makes it worth it to roll a ranger, unless you really like the class. A rangers life will be much easier come velious though with xp penalty removed and panic animal.

Thanks for the ideas. I guess I'll be going with my Monk (for now anyway, since the Ranger has the class penalty until Velious). Besides, the chart (thanks Sajan) makes some excellent points [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I sat and laughed out loud at my computer while reading that chart.

If you know / learn how to play a Monk correctly, you will love that class, more Than anything

It's always fun to show up at LCY and the group is like a shaman and four monks.

Then you go to the zoneline and it looks something like this:
