New quest - rangers able to solo

Anyone think it is slightly unfair that rangers can bolas and solo them.

My warrior grouped with druid (who is all heals) both die every time I fight one.

Personally I would like to see the freeze happen at distance as well as close range.

Yeah I agree, I can't imagine this being tested and passing.

I have to get a ranger in clan to bolas and kill while I just auto.
Pretty annoying to watch, but I thank aqwe for doing it each day.

Well, rangers are quite OP to start with, it just becomes more obvious now. I mean, they can bolas (don't get hit so much), have good armor (don't take so much damage) and have light heal (awesome heal, comparable to Druid heal even). It's not the new bosses that are flawed, it's the rangers...

Soloing these guys isn't as easy as you would think. If I miss even a single bolas or just let them get to close, I'm instantly dead. Sure it is possible for us to solo these guys, but they are NOT pushovers. Most of the time people forget to factor in the fact that we also have to avoid running too close to mobs and that makes bolasing these guys very difficult, because most of them are in a field of monsters. All in all I simply end up asking my friends for help because I don't want to waste idols or pots trying to kill them.

So true has happened more then once to me where I trying to solo them and I miss a bolas right at the end and die

Yes well for the rest of us it is impossible.. Just because it is hard doesn't mean it's equal.

I'm super tired of people complaining about rangers. If you think they're so freaking awesome, go make one. If not, be happy with the niche that goes with whatever class you chose. Have a nice day. :)

Im sorry, but no!
If a 141 warrior combined with a 105 druid cannot beat one of these OW mobs then rangers definitely shouldn't be able to solo.
The problem is the freeze spell they do, but is does not affect casters or rangers.
There is no way I should have to pot to stay alive when you just keep running circles around things.
I actually hope they change it so that you start getting wiped out all the time.
Then you can join the club and realise that you are, atm, massively too OP for your boots
