I enjoy my Ranger character.. I just get tired of people complaining about
what their class doesn't have. I only posted that to say hey don't single
out classes that have perceived problems compared to others.. Rangers to
Palaies in particular.

Hehe, I remember when wizards were complaining that Ice Comet is just not
powerful enough. They claimed that without a more powerful spell, how could
they really be the masters of DD. =)

And as for your fun comment.. "Getting to 50 without having fun is plain
stupid." Teamwork and using the class specific skills would add to the fun,
posting everything on the internet is what sucks.

PS..

Was anyone online during the DE war last night.. What did you think of it
all?

Oh, come on, stop moaning.

* Its weird that Rangers are better than Paladins in combats dont you think?

* Bards get Track at lvl35.

* The quest for SSoM is very simple to complete for the Ranger.

I have some of Ranger friends and they are doing great. I also have some
Pally friends and they are also doing great. Why does everybody want to be
the mightiest person in Norrath? I certainly do not. And wow people are
posting spawns points on the Internet, thats just not good for the game.
Getting to 50 without having fun is plain stupid.

ENJOY THE RIDE.
