Go bow kite Allizewsaur to death on teal/green on your lower lvl ranger and make a video unbuffed, unassisted, and regardless of whether I think rangers are good soloers I will be impressed by your sheer will and determination.

Enchanter, bard, magician, wizard, Druid, necro, shaman are all better soloers than a ranger imo. Ranger might be above Paladin warrior rogue and maybe shadowknight. So not even top 5 soloer and not the best hybrid soloer which is a bard.

I'm on my 3rd time leveling a ranger... on Live, on Blue, and now Teal... if you're looking for fast and efficient soloing, a ranger isn't it. At least until we get Panic Animal in Velious. The archery, kill speed, and mana costs being talked about here are being overhyped and over-exaggerated.
Sorry, Ivory, but when you're talking about a ranger sowing themselves at level 30, you're not talking Classic.

But, yea, I was thinking later for the sow.....not a big deal though, just get jboots or grab sow potions. 100 plats get you 5 hours of sow.... you can make that in a few hill giants, so for an archer no big deal, you can take them down at any level within about 10 minutes in some areas. I know I was STILL using invoke lighting a lot at level 54 on my ranger for AE kiting while also bowing. So I know how handy that spell is, and just super overlooked. | |||

I would go Monk 10 times out of 10 because I prefer going to toe-to-toe with mobs to bow kiting and root rotting. Aside form swarm kiting, that has to be the most miserable way to play EverQuest. Plus you need to keep your weapon and defense skills maxed as a Ranger so you aren't a complete waste of a slot when you get into a group, so you'll be forced to go toe-to-toe with mobs even when you would be better off bow kiting/root rotting them. Never again. Yuck.

Also, doing 22 dmg for a melee at that lvl is awesome, and you don’t get hit and barely need to med after fights. You easily solo mobs that are over your lvl such as werewolves for quests. The best thing is you have track to find the mobs you want to fight. | |||

Lots of ranger highfalutin ranger debate going on. But how about monks? How are they solo in classic? Does combat bind wound still work here? Monks seem kind of rough, given the lack of gear, lack of Iksar and inability to loot anything.

For sure, if you're hitting max/high DD's in between each shot it could be as low as 8-9. I think conservatively 10-12 on average would be better though with the wild misses and half/less damage hits I personally get on even low greens lol. When I saw you post 5-6 I though "Holy shite, it must be hitting for 40-50's" Is all good [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] 100% agreed track is awesome! | |||
