Ranger solo

[Deji]

Recommendations on mobs/zones/strategies for Level 54 Ranger to solo at? I have a fungi and woodsmans but no epics, can buy consumables if that'll speed things up some.

Thanks

Are there any decent cash spots/spawns that a Ranger can solo, and at what level brackets?

54... Seafuries will probably work out pretty well for you. Gets a little easier with chloro. I killed them mid 50s till they were green, 57 I think, and stayed there to farm until 58. Very slow exp for that last level, but w/e I made 30k.

Mid 50s, with some CoV faction, consider checking out WW animals for fear kiting. A guild mate was having problems with resists at 52, but it should be pretty good exp if you can get your fears to stick.

Permafrost fear kiting like the guy from red suggested sounds intriguing as well. Maybe give that a go 56+

Actually he did perma 52-56... I say 56+ because that's when roots got reliable for my druid, but rangers never do get an OP root so yeah.. If you can figure that place out and survive the double spawns, Permafrost will be the absolute best exp in game for you. Bad place to find a rez though.

Bring a skinning knife and some threads to make leather padding while you're down there. You'll have enough HQ skins and padding to max smithing and enough hand made bags for every alt you ever make.

DD procing bows will though, however. Bow of the Huntsman, Windstriker, Warbow of Rallos Zek, etc. It's usually worth the extra mana to re-cast root for the damage.

Cecily, what did u face tank solo from 51+ ?
Im having real problem trying to solo stuff in DL and KC.

Are there any stuff I can solo in old world? Someone mentioned bard in HHK?

I know I have fear animal but I wanna do something different.

I believe mobs had a quad attack buff since Cecily levelled up. It seemed fairly recent, maybe the start of this year.

If you run through SolA to get to the bats zoneline in SolB you should be able to safely solo sonic bats there. Two pathers and two static spawns. Chance for one of the pathers to spawn as guano hunter (a mid level goblin that drops a small weight reduction bag and a weightless cloak of shadows which is high ac, dex and dr).

Often there will be shaman, monks, druids hanging around for you to team up with.

I remember DL mobs kicking my rogue's butt unless I got a fear off back when intimidate worked better. And KC I wouldn't touch until mid / higher 50s solo. Those mobs were always pretty tough fights.

I'm super hazy on low 50s, but I think I did a mix Highkeep nobles (outdoor zone and rogue mobs) and the 3 barbarian guards near the tundra in Everfrost. Those guards are on a 6 min timer and fairly tough, but were a nice uncontested camp. I wanna say that took me to 55-56 and then I did seafuries till 58, very very slowly, and walked out of OoT with 30k in gems.

LDCs in SolB make a good duo camp with a fungi monk. You can split the damage between the two of you and provide some crowd control / support buffs. I did that at 57 with a 53 monk and it was pretty nice exp.

A guy on red suggested permafrost bear pits and fear kiting. This is something I want to check out and verify / figure out how to do it. CR from hell and hard to get there, but that's gotta be the absolute best exp option mid 50s to 60s rangers have.

Thanks, I check those Nobles out in Highpass Keep, never been xping in that zone. But I suppose I will be kos in there after a few kills, are there a nice spot near zoneline I can stand or how do I avoid being killed?
