Earthcaller - check

Just get this gear and you too can fly through the levels!

I didn't get Earthcaller/Swiftwind till 80% through 51 and he said he has a fungi. I used woodsman staff from 20-50 then jagged blade of mourning and lupine dagger from 50-51.

Any reason you switched to DW at 50? My ranger is 48 atm.

Vonhammer told me early on in my ranger career to get these items and I'd be good to solo to 60. Took awhile, but I got them all by I wanna say 54 or 55 being TMO scum. With this setup and chloroplast getting 60 solo wasn't bad at all even with 40% penalty and no fear.

90% self haste, slow procs, 25 a tick regen, and a massive DS with coat, thorns, and shaman potion made leveling a ranger such a fun experience. Wander Norath and kill anything blue on your track window.

I'm gonna take a guess and say that person was tired of using the ugly stick for so long. Woodsman should still be a much better weapon to use than those particular items, but DWing is fun. Your 50s is when DWing starts to activate enough to make it comparable or better than 2-handers, but the old Kunark gear strat was Woodsman lv20 until epics. There's other options in Velious, but I think for the most part Woodsman or better 2h until epic is still your best option.

Dcots?

Dark Cloak of the Sky.

Not many do Sky anymore though so good luck getting that now.
