Pretty much the bear is the best..It can tank things while you shoot at it with your bow/sling/shurikens. (If we're talking about NWN anyway)

well as for GW most rangers ran around with a 'Goa Bird'? well a bird it was dunno if that's the best one you can get.

I used a "Moa Bird" because they were the easiest to find. The "Lynx" can be found on the beaches south of Lion's Arch.

The only other animal I saw (and the one everyone was trying to get) was the "Snow Wolf". This wasn't available the first beta weekend but it could be found in the snowy, mountain area west of Ascalon during the second weekend.

I'm sure they just haven't added all the animals yet. Hell, they barely have graphics for the inventory items. ("Under Construction")

Don't forget the warthog, 420 - we saw him someplace - maybe west of Rotscale?

Right and there was one in the tutorial area when you make a new character.

In order of power (based on what players were saying):

-Warthog (I think this little guy is just for practice)
-Moa Bird (Special Ability: Drop Dead Immediatly)
-Lynx (The fighter henchman has something against these fuzzy little guys)
-Snow Wolf (Everyone loves the Snow Wolf)
