Default can a ranger run snakes?

i have been trying to figure out a r/mo build that could make it through snakes dance. been focusing on mending, storm chaser, and dodge, but i havent got enough healing and nothing to stop knockdown.

any help?

hmm..i think i heard someone claim it was possible in a topic. no idea how tho..

anyway, i think protection is the way to go(vital blessing) and alternating storm chaser with escape. as for knockdown...no clue.

My ranger warrior can run snake dance no problem (he just can't make it through lornar's on his own, no condition/hex removal). Just bring Charge and Balanced Stance and play it safe and you can make it through no problem.

unfortuantly, im currently a r/mo, and i would prefer not to go through the warrior quest and have to go cap charge. but if i must...


for the time being though, any one have a solution for a r/mo?

ermm i doubt there is one. in the snake dance run the mobs are arranged in like 5 herders and 1 dolyak master. 1 herder knocks you down, and before you can even get up the rest are already around you. and then you get the chain of knockdowns which prevents you from a self heal

As a R/W you definitely can and maybe as a R/Me you can, but I don't believe you can as a R/Mo.

Hm. R/W basically is the best way to go. R/Mo would be.. eh extremely difficult. You basically really need Balanced Stance.

i used to run from beacons to droknars with my r/w back in july and august but i dont know if they had changed the run since.

the skills i used were balanced stance, charge, healing signet, troll unguent, serpents quickness, storm chaser, dodge, and whirling defence and it got me through many times.

the only problem areas were the worm tunnel and the end of snakes by rankor

Basically, almost every proffesion can do the run as long as they are atleast warrior secondary.
Not talking about how difficult it is for some proffesions (I only tested mo/w, not counting warrior primary), but it's possible.

Other that this, you can't, cause only warrior's side have skills to prevent KDs.
