Been years and all of a sudden I have an itch to play Evercrack again.

Started a ranger. Never played one before and they're fairly unpopular. Perfect for me!

What kind of gear should I seek out? I cannot twink and have no money. Is there anything cheap I can acquire that will perform better than the random rusty weapons I'm finding?

Tarnished two handed sword (combine rusty weapon + sharpening stone in forge) probably best you can get outside of begging. The vendor bought weapons are like 3-20pp and a tad better than rusty/tarnished

You can probably get much better magic weapons for the same price from a sympathetic adventurer (or even free).

Silver swiftwind is a good bang for buck weapon once you have some pp saved.

A suit of banded, some fire wedding rings and silver chitin gand wraps will take you up to raid levels (eventually) and ‘only’ costs 1-3k depending on server.
