Our goal as a Ranger will be to maximize DPS while still maintaining decent tanking stats. Some items that were BiS in Classic are still BiS (or close to it) in Ruins of Kunark.
We will focus on:
1) Best in Slot Weapons
2) 40% Haste, we’ll get this from our 1.0 Epic. Other slots offer haste as well but having the 1.0 Epic is the highest priority item for Rangers in Ruins of Kunark.
3) “Worn” +Attack items (1.0 Epic and Spirit Wracked Cord)
4) We will want well rounded stats as a Hybrid. Strength/Dexterity/Stamina/Wisdom/AC/HP are all important. We will integrate resists into our BiS list as well, but you can go all out resists for some raiding or pulling situations (See 5 below).
5) **You may also want to pick up resist gear to swap for raiding. A common way to get this is Jewelcrafting Gear (Ears, Neck, Rings, Face), Crown of the Froglok Kings (FR/CR – Helm), Crown of King Tranix (MR – Helm).**
Below are stats you can expect with the gear below. Your results will vary a bit depending on which items you choose, your race, and starting stats.
If I missed a better item in any slot, feel free to let me know in Discord.
