Mighty Handy with a Bow
The EverQuest II Rangers are far more than being just a
scout. This high damage class is all about learning some
serious skill and having some serious fun. As a very
well-rounded class, it is the perfect choice for any playstyle whether
you happen to be a soloer, grouper, or raider. If you play a
Ranger or have thought about playing one, then our newly updated Ranger
Class Guide is the perfect resource to get you started and stay with
you through every step of your class career.
Each ranger has their own style of play that they
prefer and you should
obviously tailor your strategy for the level of opponent you are
facing. Without talking about level specific attributes this is how I
would handle the encounters. If soloing, I typically lead with my
highest damage Combat Arts (CAs) (Back Shot or Sniping Shot) from
maximum range and then cycle to any arrow shots that I can not use
while moving and follow with arrow CAs that I can fire while
backpedaling. Remember to pick your backing path before engaging so
that you do not back into another mob.
