Hold back a Ranger

[El Raisuli]

My new character is a Bad ARS ranger. I like being on the outside shooting in, it's a nice break from my warrior. Is there a way to hold a ranger of at a distance to shoot in. I dont know if there is a button to make him stop, or hold a present position to stay farther away. On another note i finally met someone an nice as me. I needed some material to get some new ranger armor and this person just gave it to me. Earlier that day a brand new elementalist had no gold so i gave 500 to get em started. While money is important in the game, it is also important to help each other out. Cash pays the mortgage and real bills, GUILD WARS gold is just part of a game.

I remember hunting in Old Ascalon for 5 hrs just trying to get three scorched seeds to get a halfway decent sword off of a collector. It was hardly worth it for the sword, but afterwards I found I had scooped up a butt-load of resources, and was able to craft my first set of armor.

if you want distance on a ranger well first of all if you press to attack and he runs in just hold the down arrow key and he will stop and the action will be cancelled. if you find your always too close maybe your using a shortbow or somehting look for a bow that has a bigger arch therefore shooting further, so you can stay back a bit. also take this high ground if possible as it gains you damage and distance.

actually, larger arc doesnt mean longer distance. Long bows have the the longest range yet they don't have the largest arc. I would highly reccomend u go for a long bow and also use the terrain to your advantage by elevating yourself above your target, therefore making u shoot much farther.

Try holding down the shift key before you attack..you wont move :-)
