First off i just realized that rangers get this spell i found it in the druid guild in kethin it's called panic animnal you can have this spell at level 22 this spells takes up only 10 mana less then snare and it's a animal FEAR so at level 22 you can be fear kiteing in lake of ilomen or something. if you dont know what fear kiteing is it's when the "target" is snared and then you fear him and beat the ~bad word exploit deleted~ outa him while he Trys to run! simple easy levels.
Also this is another ranger trick if you are level 45 you can kite any thing with another person (tank) and all you require is tolans gauntlets (right click snare effect) if you keep snareing with the gaunts the huge taunt on the snare brings the monster after you while your partner beats him from behind you keep snareing and he keeps smackin soon you will be victorious even aginst some tough things! but watch out for those casters!
There is another trick at level 45+ if you have a very nice bow like the 30/38 (thats a old bow lol) one and a tolans bracer you can snare them and SUMMON tons and tons and oodles (enough to fill all yo bags!) of arrows and start shooting sooon you will be victorious! - alot of time into this make sure you have a good fleeting quiver or similer for Bow haste because they speed things up by alot.
Also the ranger tolans equip if you have tolans gauntlets (snare) and arms (stingingswarm) you can snare and keep swarm up soonn after the enemy will surely die it just takes a while ONCE i soloed 3 specs at level 47 with my gaunts and arms it wuz fun ;) took forever though lamo!

More advanced things.
Further on in EQ we get at level 60 the ability to parry sheild , that is 20 seconds of melee invurnability, from the front side at least! this works good for One gate potions , if you stick your self in a corner and push parry sheild you can almsot always get away with casting a gate potion heh (no corpse summon for me mueahe!) Also we are useful for higher end encounters because of our ability to hold aagro with snare , our level 9 spell tangle weeds is .5 cast time and has the aagro effect of a snare very useful for aagro (too bad we dont tank well lol) like we are good tools to throw at the mob like for example this works well for the poi dragon , you wait for him to pop up from activation from the gnome! and then wham hit parry sheild and snare and taunt (works like a charm!) it gives the casters 20 seconds of time to slow heh (helps alot) with out that slow you could easly whipe to him when he's hitting for 1200's heh quad! owie ) that is the offical way to sacrfice the ranger! SACRFICE WOOO .. means good lewts will drop heh!!!
At level 55 we get a disciplin that allows us to hit for an additional doubble dmg about onto our doubble dmg! (ow my brain) i'm sure most to all know about this but! some people dont =p it sucks thou because the mobs you cant hit them when there in the wall unless you got skillz. I'll explane that here because the people at the programing company for EQ is lazy if the mobs are in the wall there Radius to be hit with aarows is changed. explain further! lets say you got a mo and a BIGGG OLE WALL (flat wall no corners) and your plinkin aaorws just fine untill the tank puts it in the wall (i hate when they do this.. dumb wars;p) once a part of him or similer is put into the wall there aarow bubble (picture a bubble around them and when u can see the bubble you can actually hit the mob) the bubble is flattened to the wall as so the mob is it's like the wall curves out , and he hides behind the wall , in order to hit him you must place your self aligned With the wall (so you can hit the bubble thats flattened) that way you can shoot them :p. Good luck rangers!
