I was wondering, is this as good as World of Waracraft? That game consumed me for a good 4 months, and I wasn't sure if this was as good. It seems that the classes are a lot more limited, but I'm not really too sure. I'm a life long Ranger, so I'm glad they have a somewhat similar "Hunter" class in this game, where you can be a Ranger with a pet so to speek (though I really don't know if the bow user in GW can command a pet like you can in WoW, so if someone can clarify the role of a pet and bow user, I would really appreciate it ^-^).
well I beat the game with my ranger first...my old ranger, anyways, basically you just have to put points into marksmanship and beast mastery for a good ranger/pet handler combo. as a second profession I suggest monk with healing, that way makes it easier to heal your pet. Beast mastery skill has few healing things for pets, so a ranger/monk with healing is great for staying alive, and keeping their pet alive as well. Now to have your pet always with you, ya need to have a skill in your bar called "Charm Animal" at all times. As you can only hold 8 skills at a time, and they say having a pet normaly takes up three slots. They say take" charm animal" to keep the pet, "Comfort animal" to heal it, and possibly a skill to give it a bit of extra attack. I have used pets alot, and I find that these attack skills for pets are quite usless. and if you are a ranger/monk, you can junk "comfort animal" for "healing breeze" which works on both you an your pet, rasing for 10 second your health regeneration. so you would only really need "Charm Animal" so you have "charm animal" and "healing breeze", that all you really need for a good pet ranger.
