I dont want my ranger to be another Storage Mule

So i made a ranger at the start of Nightfall. I had lots of fun going through Nightfall and had HIGH expectations. Now 2 months later, im bored. I rarely play her, and she doesnt have a REAl purpose to play her. The only reason im keepin her is because I was hoping i would find something but...i havent.

I was just wondering what everyone does to keep them occupied whiloe playing a ranger. Do you farm? and where? Do you run? Or something else, because I do not want to delete her.

I do everything with my ranger, if you don't have fun playing one you could try another profession

I run, farm and help with my ranger, it's just fun. Maybe try some pvp?

I progressed alot on my ele but I got bored of him fast.

....You won't like every char you make, and I don't think you can force yourself to like somethin. I find my ranger alot funner to play in pvp. If you have plenty of char slots, just let the ranger collect dust. If you feel you wanna delete her, browse a few builds on wiki before doing it.

I dont know how you dont have anything to do on your ranger. There are so many possibilities! almost every Elite mission uses B/Ps! And Rangers are great runners. Become a B/P and do Urgoz's Warren, Tombs, or anything else! Unless you only have NF then you have tons of things to do!

As has been stated, Ranger B/Ps are usually needed in a few elite missions. Solo farming in UW, FoW, Stygian or duo faming some elite missions is also fun. Running builds to map, chest run or just run. Etc...

The ranger is quite versatile and fun to play, but if it isn't for you, delete, new toon.

There's so many different ways to play a ranger I don't see how you could become bored playing one. Try trapping (a good way to give your video card seizures), beast master, thumper, pack hunter, toucher, etc. I think you'd become bored of Guild Wars before getting bored of playing ranger.

eww toucher. I DESPISE that build. Well, I think I am going to get my Ele through NF and farm with him until I get FoW. Then I think I will get my Ranger through Prophecies so I can get Echo, and then trap =0 and maybe B/P just have no idea how that build runs. Thank you for the tips.

... What's wrong with Echo Trapping?

I was bored of my ranger when I finished NF with it so I did Factions and Prophecies too. It took about 2 weeks to beat both games. That was fun. I was use it to B/P SF and Tombs. I also fun my guildies and friends. I also trap in UW and I make lots of friends that way. Try to do other stuff with your ranger like B/P and you can also make money with it too. I got 2 Drago's Flatbow in 2 SF trips.

Oh yeh toucher build is fun. After i kill them I dance over them. That really ticks them off.

just start another chacater

running and trapping are fun, beastmastery is cool...

GuildWar's PvE strength is it's first time through, it's weakness is it's endgame.

First off, if you haven't played the other chapters - there you go. Some/many think prophecies is better, given that you have an established character with heroes for your first time factions can be quite interesting also (IMO Ranger benefit from factions more than any other class - Trapper's Focus FTW!!!). It sounds as if you haven't, or at the least have not with a ranger. Since each class play different I've found it fun with different classes. I too like prophecies more than the others and have enjoyed taking my ranger with heroes through it WAY more than I did with just a prophecies only ranger (a mini-B/P team - me and jin as a standard b/p ranger, zenmai as a critical b/p barrager, and olias as the Minion Master - the rest whatever hench I feel like).

As has been said above - farming and elite areas are pretty much all that is left after that. I would also add titles - I know I want quite a few for my dervish. After I get my ele and ranger to a point I am happy with I'll work on that. I do not plan to beat Nightfall with either the ele or ranger, but there are some elites I *really* want to cap with them (and I may beat it - do not know until I get bored with them).

Some classes I *really* enjoy playing the story line, others I *really* enjoy farming, and a very very few I *really* enjoy doing all of it (Ele and Dervish as of now, how far both get will depend on when the next chapter is released). Luckily a ranger is quite wanted in B/P teams if high end farming groups are your thing and low to mid end farming trappers are quite good.

Anyway, GW shines if you are flexible and play a number of classes. It sorta can be repetitious if you insist on one class. That is, unless that one class really fills all your needs. Since a Ranger can play many roles and is now wanted in many different areas it is a good candidate for the one character person.

Of course, there is always PvP. While I dislike most PvP many feel it is the "real" endgame. Rangers have a decent place there and you will most likely learn enough about the game there that PvE is quite a bit easier. Especially true if you get a nice guild or friends list that also PvE's on the side.

The thing is that expertise opens up so many possiblities.
You can copy any melee class with Tiger Fury + Ferocius strike or RaO

I'm not really in the mood to play my ranger right now either after I just remade har because I lost the survivor title on 800K experience :/ But I know that I'll get back to it. I always do
