The Ranger's primary kill method is their Incendiary arrow. If the arrow isn't removed after 10 seconds the opponent will die instantly.

Paired with this, the Ranger has various incapacitating abilities to prevent an enemy from removing the incendiary arrow. The most common strategies include breaking the arms and legs of the opponent with Piercelimb and Quickjab. Additionally they have other tricks: Nets, Impaling, Pinning, and stunning to ensure their victim doesn't recover in time.

A Ranger's strength is in their ability to incapacitate enemies and control the flow of a fight.
