Rangers will hunt down and dispose of lone monsters or ambush small mobs of Goblins, but when they confront larger creatures or enemy armies on the march, signals are sent to the nearest outposts to alert them of the encroaching danger. It is they who explore hidden valleys, push through collapsed sections of the Underway and scale the cliffsides in search of new pathways. They patrol far from the safety of the Hold, often spending long periods out in the wilderness, keeping watch on the Dwarfs' many enemies and tracking dangerous beasts.
Rangers are the long-ranged eyes and ears of most Dwarf settlements.
