My PvE ranger started as B/P, which did get boring. I now make use of some of the fun elites, such as Poison Arrow (+ kindle arrows) or Incendiary Arrows (+ screaming shot), there are so many combinations to pick from.
I still use B/P if the event calls for it, such as ToPK or Sorrow's Furnace runs. I don't use my pet as often as I used to.
Everyone who's said the ranger profession is versatile knows what they're talking about! I just read up on the ranger spirit-spammer which I'd love to try once I cap Oath Shot.
But right now, I'm focused on trapping. I may just be evil, but I love watching baddies run after me only to get blown up by my traps. XD
