Padding silently through the dark forest, the lithe and stealthy ranger is at home. Long eschewing the company of men, she has turned her affections to the deep and wild wilderness, and she travels alone. Her time out away from the comfortable trappings of civilization has hardened her body and her spirit. It has also granted her the time and necessity to master a wide range of weapons. Despite her prowess on the battlefield, the Ranger is most comfortable hidden from view, felling her opponents from a distance with her mighty long bow. When cornered though, she fights as fiercely as a tigress with sword, dagger, mace, or whatever is at hand.The Ranger is Path of Exile's pure dexterity class, which befits her slim and graceful appearance. She is agile and fast, darting in and out of combat to deliver vicious critical strikes that often fell her enemies in a single blow.
Her natural quickness grants her a profound ability to avoid damage, and she tends to garb herself in light leathers and cloth. She has tremendous proficiency with ranged weapons, but she is as lethal as any man on the battlefield with a sword.Top#1 Queenliness Wanderfinder Shaper down with a Lifesprig Read the Guide YOIf you are having questions, please post them in this Thread, I'm getting way to many PM's and Ingame Whispers everyday.

Introduction
Ranger is a character that develops dexterity that lets her increase accuracy and a chance to avoid attacks. Going towards archery is the most obvious choice here so we described it here.
How to play
The gameplay is based on long-distance fighting. Eliminating the distant enemies fast and precisely is the key to winning. Big groups of monsters might be a problem because they may surround you quickly. Sometimes the only way to avoid dying is to run away and kill enemies one by one. Luckily, there are skill gems that may give you a chance to win. You should only know which ones to choose.
Passive skills
With a character that uses archery, you should mainly focus on improving damage, accuracy and attack speed, also some supporting bonuses like moving speed and mana regeneration. Thanks to choosing passives related to dexterity (with some exceptions) the ranger will turn into a sharpshooter who will do a massive damage and shoot quite rapidly. The scheme shows the beginnings of character development - it defines initial passives (7) and shows the best path towards them.
Active skills
Ranger should acquire dexterity skill gems that can work with a bow owner. The chart shows several gems that are perfect for this character. Make collecting them all your highest priority.
Explosive Arrow | The character shoots arrows that explode after reaching the target inflicting fire damage. |
Phase Run | The character activates an aura that speeds them up for some time or until an performing an attack or spell. |
Rain of Arrows | The character shoots many arrows in the air and they fall on a selected spot. |
Split Arrow | The character shoots several arrows at once, hitting multiple targets. |
Explosive Arrow is a perfect attack to destroy concentrated groups of enemies because it does area damage and puts nearby enemies on fire. With much resources it can work as a basic, not very effective shot.
Phase Run aura provides a temporary increase of movement speed. It's mainly used to escape fights, it might sometimes be necessary. Aside from that, it's convenient when you want to explore the map faster.
Rain of Arrows sends a rain of lethal, piercing arrows on your enemies. It's useful when you want to eliminate mages or archers surrounded by hordes of infantry.
Split Arrow is a perfect choice to use instead of a regular arrow attack. Thanks to this skill, the ranger can hurt several enemies at once, saving you some time. Shooting with this skill doesn't let anyone approach your character. Of course except bosses - their power is always a tough nut to crack.
