I'll asume you are starting a ranger in Prophicies.
Basically the two aspects of PvE success are survival and progression.
I suggest you split your skill bar into 2 halves, 4 for survival, and 4 to pregress (basically, killing). As soon as you pass the searing, start out with the skills you recieve in the pre-searing Ascalon, until you get to Yak's Bend.
This build is on the assumption you are level 10 at Yak's Bend.
This is what I will be using on my newest Ranger/Mesmer (After buying skills from Grendich Courthouse and Yak's Bend):
Troll Unguent [P] Distortion [Y] Dodge [Y] Ressurection Signet [P] Kindle Arrows [G] Dual Shot [P] Power Shot [P] Distracting Shot [Y] P=Presear G=Grendich Courthouse Y=Yak's Bend
Damage
Dual Shot takes 7 seconds to recharge, and Power Shot, 6. This means that every 8 seconds (Additional 1 seconds for drawback and fire time), you can deal a large ammount of damage to foes.
Attributes
Beast Mastery: 0
Expertise: 0
Marksmanship: 6
Wilderness Survival: 6
Other NotesDistortion should only be activated if your taking a beating from Warriors/Rangers as it drains your energy. If you are forced to activate Distortion, then activate Troll Unguent straight away, so you do not need to keep Distortion up. Try to keep Kindle Arrows on all the time while in battle. At 6 WS you will have +6 health regen' from Troll Unguent, which is enough to counter the degen' hexes in the early stages of the game. When an enemy enters a stance that causes them to dodge/evade your arrows, do not use Dual or Power Shot against them otherwise you waste your energy, which is precious with 0 in Expertise.

hehe Reikai, was about to post the same thing 
I personally would advise using the R/Mo Barrage solo build. Works really well
