Curse

Me and my buddy just started playing again and we decided we are going to farm together. I have a ranger that I used to run FoW forest with and he is kinda new to fow but has a war. We want to do cave/forest runs and were wondering a good build for it. We just ran through it with traditional builds and headed to the beach first where we got eaten up by spiders cuz my buddy aggroed a shitload. I wasn't doing much damage to them and the Poison arrow thing doesn't work because of their melandrus resilance. Any suggestions for skills if we were to attempt this? What about a little modification on my part like: instead of poison arrow I replace it with apply poison and lose the whole kindle arrows. It wouldn't be nessecairy for me to carry a poison even as the war can tank the spiders. I just need a skill set for R/me and W/Mo or anything you can come up with to do these runs. So like I asked before..lol any ideas?
What I was thinking was:

W-
Charge{or Cleave}/ Sprint/ Cyclone/ Executioners/ Watch yourself/ Dolyak/ Physical resistance/ Healing Signet

R-
Barrage/ Apply poison/ Savage shot/ Dodge/ Storm Chaser/ Physical Resistance/ Mantra of Lightning/ Troll ungeunt.

Barrage to attack spiders well he is tanking them. Same goes for when attacking shepard woods in the forest. Can use apply poison agains't targets in the forest as well but not the cave. Sound alright or?

First of i think that you two would be better of if each of you goes in solo. meaning: ranger goes in forest, warrior on the beach and split entry fees.

An update, not so long ago canceled armor stacking. meaning that with dolyak and physical you'll only get bonus from physical.

As for warrior, for an elite use either whirling axe or triple chop (in case of triple you might take zealous weapon) and instead of sprint take enraging charge with high strength has longer duration. if you search a bit i'm sure you'll find solo bild for fow ranger and i doubt that barrage and poison arrow are in it (you know that barrage removes all preparations, right?)

Most 2 men groups revolve around a tanker+bonder or tanker+damage dealer. That said, the tanker is generally a warrior, the bonder usually a monk, and damage dealer usually a necro. A warrior+ranger combination would not lead to a very profitable 2-man group.

bonder and 600hp smiter or something, in HM .. they go down like a sack of s**t
