Final ranger/event feedback:

-Next time the whole event probably needs to last an extra week. Not everyone was able to level up in time to participate in the events at the end.
-On the whole this was a lot of fun and I think it helped better the class so I'd call it a success. Looking forward to the next one.

Ranger stuff:
-They are in a far better place now!
-It would be nice if rangers could know on a lookover if a mob is tamable (and if it's tamable at the ranger's current lvl).
-Going further on the lookover stuff perhaps let rangers see divs of mobs, it can come in handy for taming and fits with the class.
-AFAIK there are no caster mobs that are tamable. Yes you can get Breath and some novelty spells but they aren't really as effective as a true caster pet could be.
-Most "top" pets (cobra, dreadbeast come to mind) seem to be night or lightning, some div variety on pet choices would be good.
-Still not a fan of arrows, but lol.
-Rangers are quite strong 1v1 with pet heals and high HP, but I think pet heals were already nerfed a bit so this might bring them back down a bit.
-Sword/Shield is very strong, arguably outweighs bow/arrow in most pvp situations. This feels goofy - suggest some kind of nerf to sword/shield so it's not the obvious pvp choice.

Think that's it for now, will update if I think of more.

For bows it might be cause theres not so many good bows out there though too vs swords. I think we're seriously lacking in the bow department bar the obviously PP ones.

Technically swords 'max' will be 17/23 and bow is 20/25. its about 13% more min and 8% more max. 20str:

126 161 with sword
144 173 with bow. You get more minimum obviously because of how it works. It's about 12-14% more minimum and 8% more maximum I would say. But then you also have arrows which give you a crit chance of 12% for 15% more damage.

The issue though I think is that the max bow is only +1 min to a sword that you can obtain through OADs, that is a problem atm. Need moar bow drops.

There's actually a few int pets but we're working on a couple more. Some of the hardcore ranger guys showed me some pretty powerful int mobs, some I had to lower cause they were like 30int with gear (woops), but they still have high int.

In look over might not be possible but maybe I'll do that scroll thing eventually that allows a ranger to 'examine/identify' though.

I did nerf heals before the events yeah, they were a little OP but not sure if it needs more yet.

I think they are in a better place yes, they could use some minor tweaking but they are pretty good, thanks for the report though, it's good to see.

I fully agree with giving an extra week too next class event we do.

Good point about bow oads, wasn't really thinking about that.

a+ for the scroll, will check that out later!
