I just made a ranger and I love playing it. Certainly not as powerful solo as my enchanter, and bow kiting is torture, even with a Rain Caller and non-store-bought arrows. It's faster to go toe-to-toe and then heal and med up after than it is to kite. I'm level 17 now so not a great judge of how they are going to be later on... but 1-17 is a blast!

Awesome thank you all for the responses. So it sounds to me like I should just focus on some decent weapons and the bow is more useful for getting a little extra damage in if I say snare pull a mob and get a couple hits in before it reaches me.
And then I guess 2h weapons will be better? Is there a point when two 1h will out perform the 2h weapons? Other than Epic of course.

Im a little late to the party, almost 47 wood elf ranger here, You have 4k for twinking nice, get ac/str/hp gear. I put all my points into Dex, dex gear is hard to come by, but str gear is all over the place. Dex also plays a big part if you want to solo at higher levels with the Swarmcaller. I did not bow kite, i used my bow as a dot, I would root dot then use my bow, i did this until 46 when i switched to using my Swarmy, and switching of to better weps.
Right now if you want me to give you a measure, I can kill 3 dark blue con Hill giants before i have to med. HG's have ton of hp's, so i can take out 4 or 5 DB con mobs with less hp's. I am using an FBss, but would really like to upgarde to a RBB. Starting off, i would deffinetly go with the swiftblade, then upgrade to Woodman's staff, it seems that the Woodsman is the best wep to have, if you dont want to be reposted to death. Str or Dex is a tough choice, Str suppsedly makes you hit harder, but you do need that Swarmy to proc if you want to solo at higher levels. Anyways, i should of been 55 by now, but i have been missing too much playing time, and i also messed around with my other toons. Rangers are not as bad as people say they are [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Being that this is EQ I would recommend joining groups and not worrying about what you can solo. You can fill in the tank roll well into your 40's. Use Flame Lick for instant aggro. A woodsman's staff will cost you about 7k. Better to stick with your silver swiftblade until the rest of your gear is decent.
I wouldn't recommend a Ranger if your goal is to solo. | ||
