I need a good recommend build for ranger, 2 of them, 1 for sabway 6-8 mans and 1 for 4-mans areas. Currently broad head arrow with epidemic seem like a right choice but I like to be more of a damage dealer and survival if somehow my necros died.

Try going ursan or do the Ranger with a scythe build.
I know it is meta, but you do have high damage and high survivability with both builds.
Something to think about.

something beside ursan, scythe kinda good idea. Im not an ursan hater, it just I want to experiment builds and stuff.

R/D Escape Scythe with PvE Modifications...

[Pious Assault][Eremite's Attack][Chilling Victory][Lightning Reflexes][Escape][Aura Of Holy Might]

Last 2 slots are flexible as to what you want to bring. It should hit constantly high...

Just go BHA and bring some +damage stuff like Sloth Hunter's Shot.

An upfront melee is a good idea with the new [skill]antidote signet[/skill] buff.

R/W for skills like [skill]wild blow[/skill][skill]distracting strike[/skill][skill]distracting blow[/skill] or R/D for its nice damage.

For tyria at least you would be able to clear pretty much everywhere with with that sort of setup.
Maybe throw in a few PvE skills for armour boosting and such. E.G. [skill]I Am Unstoppable[/skill]

When you get into more 8 party areas you can get away with no melee and go BHA.

To be honest if your necros die your better letting the party wipe and try again imo.

BHA/epidemic/volley dosnt get much better than that for PvE.

R/P with Rampage as One or Never Rampage Alone works quite well for me. Add a few spear attacks plus pet and you can do some nice damage.

You've got the additional health from spear and shield plus some extra armour so survivability is also good.

I agree. This is what I have been using with sabway for vanquishing EotN, Nightfall and Tyria (haven't got going on Cantha yet):

[BHA interrupter;OgUSc5MTuSqGPGghOBoGFH3l]

In a boss-heavy area I might change [Epidemic] for [Pain Inverter].

[throw dirt] is reserved for when melee mobs break through to the backline.
