So what I'm hearing is that soloing on a ranger requires a ton of arrows. That was one of my main questions, because I'd rather not play a ranger if, as you get higher and higher in levels, you do more and more bow rotting. It gets tedious for me pressing 1 and seeing each arrow do so little damage....if shooting the bow to get the mob to 50% or even 70% health is required, then I probably won't go with ranger....

And just wanted to add to some earlier posts...
my main goal in this game is to be a solo artist. I just don't have the time to commit to regular raiding and those irregular hours that come with it. For me, the fun is in viewing this game almost like a single player game and making my way through a tough dungeon and fighting some bosses. If I'm going to be disappointed at 50 or 60 as a ranger trying to be a solo artist, then maybe it's not the right class for me. | ||

Then there is tons of gear upgrades to keep it feeling new. You have pretty decent race options. Barbarian might work if you like humanoid looks, iksar is totally viable, and ogre/troll look hilarious and are very strong. You will not regret starting a shaman and you will have unlimited upside, to the point where you can become a god at the high end with torpor and crazy strong gearing. | |||

Just play a bard. Less melee damage but way more abilities that allow them to solo all the way to 60 (swarming, fear kiting, charming, even face to face with slow/dots/melee etc).

Back to the OP, you have the hps of a rogue and worse defense caps. You do less damage than a monk. You're HP recovery or avoidance is horrid compared to a knight. You have no "escape" method besides snaring and running or rooting and camping out. Why would you pick this as a solo artist? It's an underdog class through and through. Again, you can solo to 60 (with any melee really). If you dont have the patience for summoning arrows I'd pick a different class, probably not even a melee. They are ALL a dredge to hit 60 on. Finding a group with a ranger will be more tough than most melees; a monk or rogue can get to the camp far easier and usually will be preferred if all things considered. Quote:
