Maybe this should be in the farming forum but I'll bite.
in all honesty rangers suck at farming you'd likely be better off farming with another character if you have one.
If you poke around there are still things you can farm. There are some builds out there to farm the forest in FoW. You can farm bosses in Cantha with a touch ranger and hope to get elite tomes. You can farm glacial stones in NM with a touch ranger + melandru's resilience. You can also do up some 600/Smite action in CoF + melandru's resilience also.
Not sure what else. I dont have builds for you but now that you know what to look for you should be able to find em easy.

I'll repeat this belongs to farming and encourage the OP to post there but...
wasn't there some 2-man farming build using ranger spirits? think there was one for DoA.

This belongs in the farming section and rangers don't farm unless you consider SP in TotPK or Trapping in UW.
I'd stick with other classes for farming. Rangers and Paragons are the worst classes for farming.

I disagree MasterSasori, the only PvE Character I have is a Ranger and I farm plenty of things.
People just don't farm with Rangers becuase it's easier to farm with a 55 or 600/smite because those builds are common and easy to obtain.
Ranger's are the most versitile class in the game, very easy to farm stuff with them.

Agreed, with max Expertise, Rangers are second best at almost everything in the game. Probably third best at hexing and 4th at healing.

I had assumed the OP's point was for most efficient farming in terms of $$$. Ranger of course can farm stuff, but I doubt the efficiency and ease of use can compare with that of certain other classes.

A GOOD ranger is the king of interrupting. ;) Never forget it.

Absolutely and they're the king of trapping and beast mastery - I forgot those as well. ;)

Even trappers and beastmasters should carry interrupts. Every ranger bar should have some sort of interrupt.

Every Bow Ranger bar MUST have [distracting shot]. Otherwise it would be a travesty.
