Need help with Ranger

Making a ranger runner is pretty simple. Just bring a condition remover, hex remover, self heal, and some running skills. R/Mo with Heal Area/Heal Breeze works well enough as well as mending. Lol, Mending. Good call Archon.

I use:

Holy Viel
Contemplation of Purity
Purge Conditions
Troll Unguent
Dodge
Zojun's Haste
Escape {E}
<Flex>

If you don't have/can't get certain skills, just switch around with whatever is close.

That being said, I think they can run faster than any other class thanks to Zojun's Haste and Dodge. As stated before, all you really need is to throw in Escape for a constant speed boost - but keep in mind that you could easily do the same with Storm Chaser, or even Natural Stride. Don't forget that part of the reason for Escape is because it, along with Dodge and ZH, is based on Expertise, not Wilderness Survival. Oh, and the 75% evasion is very nice.

My running build is usually:

Expertise: 11+2
Wilderness Survival: 10+1
Healing Prayers: 10

Dodge
ZH
Escape
Troll Unguent
Healing Breeze
Heal Area
Holy Veil
Purge Conditions

Not having an anti-KD skill is incredibly irritating, but for almost any area, this build works fine because the heal and evasion are enough to tank any KD. For areas where anti-KD is a must, I prefer:

Expertise: 11+2
Wind Prayers: 10
Earth Prayers: 10

Dodge
ZH
Escape
Featherfoot Grace
Fleeting Stability
Pious Restoration
Conviction
Signet of Pious Light

With this build, you have to be careful that you can remove the Fleeting Stability with Signet or Pious before it expires. Although there isn't a great anti-cripple skill for either Dervish or Ranger, Grace does an okay job, plus adds to your running ability.

Don't forget that part of the reason for Escape is because it, along with Dodge and ZH, is based on Expertise, not Wilderness Survival. Oh, and the 75% evasion is very nice. Of course I didn't forget, but there's a reason I didn't with the mention. It doesn't matter too much really. What hurts you on a ranger runner are knock downs and hexes, not melee characters. The only part of the forge run where it would be REMOTELY useful is in Snake Dance with all the giants, but guess what - you need Balanced Stance more.

ok everyone a ranger runner does not use wilderness at all noobish wildereness is for trapping and pvp and such i repeat dont use any wildereness skills all 16 exp and 13healing prayers is the best

and balanced stance dont need it for roks do it fine without it dodge and esacpe allow most attacks to miss that knock you down

then use mending, holy veil, healing breeze purge cond and smite hex(or wirling d, or throw dirt) along with 3 exp running skills doage esacpe and z haste thats all you will need to run I wonder if this interesting example of e-spelling was worth the thread necromancy. However I'm surprised the very experienced player you seem to be doesn't know you cannot use runes of your secondary profession...
