| Description: | Rangers are noted primarily for their ability to track their friends and enemies, though their knowledge of the natural world has also given them great magical strength. They are a cross between the fighter and the druid, gaining druid chants at higher levels, and numerous fighting techniques.
How to play: Rangers can provide a unique opportunity for experience advancement in a mud. Their combat skills make them desirable as group members as tanks. Their ability to use scrolls gives them access to magic that grants them some of the druids versatility. Meanwhile, the druidic chants they learn gives them a unique affinity with animals, allowing them to form their own groups as well.
The Ranger, like the Paladin, is not quite as strong a fighter as a pure fighter, but makes up for this using his magical animal affinity. Also, the Ranger will have to be careful to maintain a moderate neutral alignment in order for the druidic chants to become useful. In the meantime, the ranger must use runes and other druidic items to supplement his natural fighting skill. |

How to Play
Grouping with Animals
Rangers have many abilities centered around grouping with animals.
Gaining Animal Followers
Until level 19, the ranger has no ability to attract animal followers into his group. Therefore, the Ranger will need to purchase a tamed animal from a trapper, or from a pet store if they wish to group with an animal before gaining charm animal. Charm Animal will allow the ranger to (possibly) add an animal to their group for the duration of the charm. However, once the Charm wears off, the animal will attack the Ranger.
At level 22, the ranger can gain the ability to Summon Animals to add to their group. These summoned animals will fight alongside the ranger for the duration of the spell, then vanish back to their homes.
For special pets that the Ranger desires to keep in their group for a long time, the Ranger should use the level 16 ability, Animal Companion. This will make the animal a loyal follower of the Ranger, and remove any charm affect on the animal (so a charmed animal will become a permanent loyal follower, and a purchased animal will become loyal). Loyal followers will not leave the group, even if the group is broken up by an untimely arrest. Simply relocate your follower and they will return to your group.
Multi-Classing Options and Effectiveness
Notes
- Due to the Ranger's close affinity with nature, maintaining a near neutral alignment and moderate inclination is ideal to minimize fizzles on chants.
