What is a very good secondary class for a primary ranger going it alone?
What about a ranger's pet - any way to better control it, like telling it to just protect the ranger from close quarter attacks instead of running off and attacking whatever the ranger starts to shoot at?
Thanks again for all the help.

As far as my understanding is, there isn't a way to create a Guild where the game actually knows that you're going to have only Rangers, Monks, or whatever profession you want it to be. The Guild Leader is in control of who can be in the guild, and you could limit your invites to only the profession of your choice, so it is possible to have a guild of only Rangers.
For a secondary on a Ranger, it all depends on what you want to be doing on your own; if you're looking for sheer power, Warrior secondary can give you skills like Sever Artery and such. I was playing a Monk secondary, mainly for the Resurrection spell, but that obviously doesn't help when you're on your own, though it is nice to heal yourself more rapidly than trying to pull off Troll Unguent when being attacked by multiple creatures. It all depends on what you want.
So far I've found that pets, while nice earlier on in Pre-Searing Ascalon and for missions up to Fort Ranik, become somewhat of a nuisance. Unless you want to be healing your pet in the middle of a heated battle, what happened with me at least was that my Melandru/Playful Lynx would end up getting trapped between a few creatures, would get annhillated, and would cost me a 5% Death Penalty. If you wanted to pump up your Beast Mastery Attributes, your pet could become quite the little tank, as long as you take the time to make sure it doesn't die. Of course, I'm not really a pet guy anymore, not since my Melandru got me stuck in a ramp during the mission where Prince Rurik is killed by the Stone Summit (blanking on its name right now, but hopefully you get the point). Not fun having to wait until people can get to the next cutscene so I can rejoin the action...
And at least for now, there is no really way to control your pet, other than trying to attack a different target who's further away from the action so your pet is at least a little more out of harms way.
