Anyone know of a ranger build that can make the Droks run from Beacon's Perch? Or is that totally impossible?

Ranger Droks run is definitally possible. I do it all the time, much faster, and easily with a higher chance of success than most warriors at Beacons.

R/W is a must. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. You *may* get lucky and get past lonar's pass with a R/Mo, but you won't survive Dreadnaught's Drift, as well as Snake Dance, because of the abundance of Knockdown from Giants.

As for skills and atts :/ Unfortunatly you'll have to figure that out yourself.
For a start, look into Balanced Stance and Charge.

I can do it with r/w
made it once as r/mo, with a hell lot of protection skills, but I will never do that again, takes ages and you will probably not make it

for skills:
Serpents quickness
Balanced stance
Charge
Stormchaser
Troll unguent, fill the rest as you like

Any class can use all skills including elites.

Any class can use all skills including elites. lol i always thought you couldn't use an elite of your secondary profession.

Yep you can use elites, you just can't use runes on your armor from you secondary class.

Definitely possible with a lot of practice for a R/W.

With skills like Balanced Stance, Charge, Sprint, Dodge, Storm Chaser, Dryder's Defense, Serpent's Quickness Troll Unguent. Why not?

R/W builds are one of the best running builds i've seen.
