Canthan ranger..

buy the skills, or bring your ranger into Tyria and do the quest if you can, not sure since I haven't tried it. He doesn't have Tryia as he doesn't have Prophicies.

... i was thinking abt deleting it since my sin can outdmg it by far (and survival is also better believe me or not..) and can solo bosses If your having trouble survivng in pve as a ranger you are doing something wrong, they have more evasion and escape skills than any other character and are easyily one of the best classes to play.
soloing bosses is easy if you take your time to trap and prepare first.

He doesn't have Tryia as he doesn't have Prophicies. As if people don't make characters in Cantha when they have merged accounts

no, the problem is that my sin can deal more dmg and survive longer, PvE boss farming is much easier when you have crit defenses (perma evasion) and can deal tons of dmg in a short time.. if u keep duying being a RANGER.... maby its just not for you..... delete it and make a wammo or somethin

then tell me how to kill an easy boss with ranger, say, chkkr? or the monk boss close to the entrance?

like i said, with factions only skils.. use a stance (something to evade)
use poison (in any shape)
use interruption (theres plenty)
use a spike (thers plenty)
use self healing (always)

all that together=dead ANYTHING

all that together=dead ANYTHING so i just tried it, many times against bosses

stances, they rock...for 20 secs, then you have 40 secs taking full dmg (while a boss can kill you in 3-5 sucessiful hits)
poison helps a lot, like always
interruption works well, specially against bosses self healing stuff (curious note is that my sin can outdmg even the healing with no interrupts..)
the spikes...arent really "spikes" unless im doing something seriously wrong, all atks dmg might look a lil nice but the refire and recharge rates are killers.. (tried with many different bows)
self healing, i tried troll unguement, by the time its working you either wasted the precious lil time stances give you to hit the boss or after the 3 secs cast time you already died...twice..

i think ill put my hopes on a pet for PvE, if it doesnt work..

btw this ranger rocks in PvP as a spiker, hitting enemies from faaaar away, can kill human players pretty fast too (made the R/E with kindle arrows) just cant see a way to work it out for PvE, also got a friend who is depressed cause he only has a ranger and cant find a way to solo with it..
