I think its good, we and a friend did some things, and having 2 pets rocked lol. Plus being ranger/elementalist is pretty strong.

You need to give your current pet to a pet tamer...they are scattered around (Link Here). This will get rid of your pet completely and you should be free to charm another

Just know that you cannot get your pet back once you give it to the tamer.

Flarestorm combined with Otyugh's Cry is the r0xx0r. Bears are obviously the best pet because they are so big and powerful.

@Edopo:
Bears are generally considered the lesser of pets to use since they use a skill every 4 attacks that does no additional damage. The net result of this is that bears do less damage per second that other pets while having no other strengths to make up for this shortcoming. If you want to learn more about pets and beastmastery, I would reccomend you check out the following link:

The class combo sounded good, but my plan was to use stuff like conjure phantasm to degen the enemies while casting fireball to deal massive AoE damage and flare with aura of restoration to heal myself. Though not as bad as most starter ideas (mending heal breeze wammo, meteor shower war), it's still pretty pathetic now that I think back at it.

If you want decent ranger builds on the go, go to guildwiki.org, otherwise experiment with what seems to help you deal the most damage and keep you alive the best, and remember that there is no real "perfect" build in this game.

But yes, this is one of the most pointless threads ever...close please?

The skill does trigger some shouts, but the synergy is horrendous.

No, there are great builds for beginners.

When I first started I was a Warrior with a pet (W/R not a thumper or any thing) =] I thought it would be cool to have a ton of melee damage. Then I just used a bow on my Warrior so I made a Ranger instead.

Making a pointless thread doesn't merit shameless mockery. If the thread is pointless, say so and move on, otherwise just ignore it and wait for a mod to close it. Continually bumping it just to throw in your own shot against the OP just to flame ignorance is counterproductive and disrespectful. Common courtesy ftw.

It has been argued that a bear isn't bad for a Paragon due to the bears ability to trigger Anthem of Flame, but that use is quite rare. For most practical purposes, bears are not a good choice unless you want one simply for asthetics.

Well sometimes warriors use bows to lure, which makes perfect sense since it's the warrior that should draw initial aggro. Some people let a ranger lure, but there's a chance the ranger will draw aggro instead of the warior, so it's not recommended.
