Still no newbie love for the ranger

[Disavowed]

LFM for Rainbow says looking for dps type and a caster a guide would be nice.

I send tell

Would you like a Str based ranger?

No Thanks we need a tank

ME OK NP my ranger can hit a 40 STR self buffed and has 520 hp and I've ran it at least 400 times and have soloed the quest before they made the graphics change but if that's not enough of a tank enjoy and good luck.

Reply your ranger has over 500 hp

Yep

Ok you can be a our tank join.

Needless to say now I had something to prove so I join.

I join I head to entrance as we are waiting forever to fill the last spot. So I finally suggest we just 5 man it.

reply from leader No we need to wait for a tank

5 minutes later ding a fighter joins and it's the leaders friend. Leader states now we have a tank we'll own this quest.

End of quest the fighter has 24 kills the sorc has 62 and Watneys the ranger has 90 something.

Next quest different leader is A Shroud run. I'm on Sapporo my Fighter. We're once again looking to fill and I look at the LFM and see the only open spots are for fighters & Barbs. So I send private tell to leader.

It's your group but why no rangers.

Rangers suck they do no damage.

Me Dude you have a lot to learn about rangers

Leader I've been playing this game long enough to know what builds can't dish out damage and rangers and monks can't dish out damage.

Hmmm there are all ranger and all monk Shroud groups sometimes. Did you know this? Arkat is a WF monk that could keep up with any of my dps toons. It's not the class it's the person building the class. Just so you know when you put up LFMs omitting those classes it usually steers the vets that know how to play this game away. It's a red flrag to them that the leader in inexperienced or the raid is most likely going to fail.

Then those guys are noobs and don't know sh!t.

No. They like me have been playing for 3+ years, and they not necessarily me are considered some of the best players on the server. You can learn a lot from them.

All I know is rangers suck all they, do is run around with many shot and shoot arrows.

Conversation ends after we finally fill and go do quest.

So like my other post last month here we go again. Can't wait to see how long this is going to take to work itself out.
