Ranger
What to expect from Rangers on EZServer (2023):
Rangers are not the most popular/used class on EZserver. Their damage is not great, sitting a bit below a Monks DPS output, but it's not terrible either if you compare them to other melee classes (except the Rogue). Rangers can use Ninjastrike augments, to boost their damage. Most players have their Ranger do melee damage with weapons where in the end tiers the most popular and highest wielding damage would be with Ultimate Long Sword XII in main hand and a Cratos, Blade Of The Orcish Plaguebringer from Sleeper's Tomb]] in off hand with Ninjastrike augments. The Ranger also gets a beneficial group spell called Howl of the Huntmaster, which will increase attack and double attack rates. In Airplane and Old Commons you can pick up self buff spells called Secrets Secret Ranger Secrets that will modify your damage.
There is also the option to use a Bow and do ranged damage, but currently it's not too viable if you want to min/max your damage output. If you fancy using a bow, you can choose it when you create your Ultimate Weapon by cycling the weapon to the Essence trader. There are some other bows spread out in the various tiers as well and the top bow would be Apocalypse off bosses in Veeshan's Peak. You would currently lose 3/4th of your total damage though, so no good reason really do use bows and not melee.
You may also now choose if you want your Epic Augment to proc off a bow or a sword. More information on how to do that can be found by reading this thread:Ranger Overhaul Epic Changes - November 20, 2019
