Yeah, Hegobi was good at what he did, but he was hardly hell on wheels. Delanan, who was a shaman by the way, even made MY ranger look like a beast when we hunted. Not to say he needed me, as Delanan was quite capable of killing people by himself.
>>Rangers: >>Pros: Snare + bearcharge + scroll use. >>Cons: People can *somewhat* avoid wildneress areas. Bash protection >>nullifies bearcharge.
Unless you're a cloud giant, bearcharge is simply not an effective skill. I've seen people get lagged fighting a giant ranger but not an enlarged felar or human ranger. Yes, this is in a wilderness area too. For scrolls, you have the opportunity to recite them on yourself, great. Forget about reciting on a snared person - that initiates combat. Why not waylay instead?
