Overview
[edit | edit source]Rangers are something of a cross between a fighter and a druid. Rangers are the best class at using a bow, and the best magic bows in the game can only be used by a ranger. Rangers also have innate resistance to the elements, getting +4 to both fire and cold resistance. Rangers have tracking ability and also can forage.
Rangers are a useful melee class and are sometimes called on to play the tank. Unable to dish out or take as much damage as a warrior, and limited in your weapon and armor selection, they are still able to hold their own. Due to the fact that as a class they tend to die a lot, Everquest players have a depth of jokes about rangers, often mockingly referred to as ranjas, which focus on their frequent need for resurrections.
