Celtic Heroes

I should rephrase that haha
Every class lacks something. Warriors lack damage, mages lack armor, Druids lack armor, and rogues lack vitality. Rangers are meant to be well rounded. They are not a dps, or a healer, or support. They are just sort of a soloing class. But they are a great class. You can have a ranger heal 1k health and do more than that with a skill hit. Bolas isn't needed. You guys can do way more than any other classes when you are alone. They may not always be called first for a grouping, bur they're still never left out.
They do moderate damage, amazing heals, and they do not have to fight more than one enemy at a time thanks to camo. Find a build that's good if yours is not working. There are problems with all classes, but asking for all classes to be boosted would make it worse. If ranger gets a noticeable boost, people from other classes are going to complain and bully one thumb into boosting their classes. Rangers are a great class right now, just have to get the build and luxury items that are right for you.

And I have both a rogue and a ranger too. ;P
I don't hate rangers. They're great, and I love rogues even more. I wasn't complaining.

Seriously?
Rangers don't need any boosts. They have a massive heal along with decent dps. I know a ranger who heals 1k hp and does more damage than that with skills. He can solo bosses I can't even get to 75% hp.
Rogues got a boost. But it was one that was needed. I die so much. Even with the regen I have and the skill from an essence blade, I use 10 idols to get to my leveling spot. And I'm not conplaining. If I use 20 restores to kill a boss a ranger my level can solo, why is the ranger complaining?

I certainly do not want mages or rogues or any class nerfed at all , I just think ranger was left a bit behind in this update , hopefully we can get it resolved now and not in update 5 :p

I decided to wait a while to make this post based on what I've seen training as a ranger in update 4.

While rangers have been near the bottom of the pack for dps for a while now, it wasn't quite as noticeable as it is now.

Rogues and Mages got a major dps boost - rogue skills do more than auto, and I've seen mages hit 8k+ on 160+ mobs. What did rangers get? Rapid shot no longer hits as fast, Steady Aim was nerfed, Sharp Shot hits the same as an auto hit. . .a bit more if lucky. As for new skills, where are these points supposed to come from? Ranger is full of skills that cannot be used effectively unless you max them: Bolas, Conceal, Camo, Longshot, Sharp Shot. Should we choose not to use these skills we're left with Steady Aim (nerfed), Rapid Shot (nerfed), Light Heal (nerfed in pvp, which is a whooole nother complaint), Sharpen Weapons (admittedly a decent group buff, if you're training with rogues or have it maxed) and Barbed Shot which still isn't that great.

Sure, I get it, Ranger is the proverbial "Jack of all Trades" proficient at all, master of none. But this seriously takes it too far. With new bosses and rage timers, who wants a ranger that won't be putting out near as much dmg as a rogue or mage? Honestly, when we did the 160 6* boss on epona, I was shoved into the tank group as a backup druid. . .which we can thank sigil and energy issues for.

As far as pvp goes, Ranger is the underdog for all. . .alot of people talk about arena and if you can't defend yourself, don't go in. All our decent skills are nerfed, Light Heal only heals less than half its max, Bolas only lasts 15 seconds, Sharp Shot tends to do less dmg than auto, Rapid is slowed down so our auto won't get us far especially against rogues whose melee is faster than us on rapid. What do you expect us to do?

Sure rangers can solo, people like to come back to that one. . .but so can almost any class when set up properly, and with plat aids can do it alot faster.

Don't get me wrong, I still love ranger and will continue to play it, I just feel the class balance has been upset and it's leaving rangers in the dust.
