Actually, any bow is good for a ranger depending on the stats and your skillset.

Brutal I focused on Air because the e-costs arent generally all that high, I brought lightning strike and chain lightning, get druids armour for the extra energy

yeh i might make a new ranger and go ranger monk so i can solo a little better but again i need some pics of good bows. Plus i found if i make a new ranger monk in pre i can level up and find tons of dyes then go to post and sell all the dyes and buy some good armor

Solo-ing is a big no-no for R/Mo's, dont attempt it (btw if you do tell me your build) I tried it, doesnt work, go smiting then you can get more damage out to help your team.

R/Mo is more than capable of soloing. Depends on your build.

I made the mistake of buying a shadow bow for a paat-time ranger, they look like a black stick.
