RangerThis is a build guide for purely progressing through campaign and getting to T15s. The idea is that you swap to another endgame build at that point.
This is one of the fastest leveling builds for 
Amazon, 
Ritualist, 
Deadeye, and 
Pathfinder. It's the huntress/ranger version of the build that I used to win an Act 4 Boss Kill Race, and finish the campaign in 4 hours.

This will be your setup for the majority of Act 1. Your goal is to get to level 14 by the time you start fighting Geonor, so that you can use 
Gas Grenade.
As a Huntress/Ranger, you don't start with a crossbow. You want to play crossbows from level 1, so you'll need to try and buy one from Renly.
If you can't afford one, create a mercenary character, kill the miller, take the skill gem from Renly and cut 
Frost Bomb, and stash your items.
You can then use the crossbow and Frost Bomb on your Huntress/Ranger.
Vendor Regex (make sure to copy quotation marks as well): "!(uiv)" "cross|mov|[egdl] da.* to a"
Don't spend any Regals, Alcs, Runes, or Exalts until Act 2. You're saving them for the level 16 
Varnished Crossbow
Weapon: Click here for a very detailed guide on how to get great weapons throughout campaign. Having a great weapon versus having a bad weapon drastically changes your damage, so I strongly recommend reading it.

Your first Level 1 Uncut Skill Gem that you get from Renly will be Explosive Grenade and then you must pick up the Skill Gem in Clearfell to cut Frost Bomb.
Make sure to get your first support gem from Areagne in The Grelwood, and cut Multishot I for Explosive Grenade.
First Level 3 Skill Gem (The Rust King): Upgrade Explosive Grenade
Second Level 3 Skill Gem (Lachlann): Flash Grenade.
Third Level 3 Skill Gem (Crowbell): Pounce
Upgrading priority: Explosive Grenade > Flash Grenade
Tier 1 Support Gem Order:
Explosive Grenade.Flash Grenade (which you'll put on Gas Grenade)Gas Grenade (when you're level 14)Pick up the first two attack damage nodes at the start, and then path to 
Heavy Ammunition & Careful Aim.
In early Act 1, use Explosive Grenade to clear trash monsters and kill bosses. Flash Grenade is used to help clear trash monsters, and stun bosses. If your gear is strong enough, flash grenade can one shot entire packs.
At Level 14, your trash-clearing rotation becomes: throw Gas Grenade, then Explosive Grenade to detonate it. Throw them ahead and run past so mobs follow into the blasts.
For bosses, cast Gas Grenade, then Explosive Grenade, and continue throwing gas / explosive grenades on cooldown. Gas Grenade has a limit of 6, so before you start using 
Bombard Crossbow, you can cast Gas Grenade twice per Explosive Grenade (rather than once). Once you get 
Oil Grenade, you should throw one out before continuing your usual rotation.
From level 52 for clear, cast 
Cluster Grenade, and you will one shot the screen.
Ascendancy:
This build doesn't require any ascendancy to clear campaign / T15s, so if you're planning to swap to another build in endgame, you can go straight into that.
