I didn’t really know what category to put this under so I will post it generally. I main a Ranger and I’m having trouble finding a straight answer on what build I should be running. She is currently in all exotic zerker gear with runes of the scholar with all ascended zerker trinkets/amulet/rings etc …. so far shes solo’d 90% of all PVE content with little trouble. Longbow with axe/torch …
I want her in all Ascended gear/weapons and am close to having Huntsman at 500. What Ascended set of armor should I craft for her as I immediately thought Zojja and am finding that there are several possibilities. Do you recommend different weapon sets and if so, what Ascended set would you run?
Thoughts, advice, suggestions are welcome and thank you …
When life knocks you down, roll over and look at the stars.
There are primarily three popular “viable” ranger builds currently in the meta.
1) Power / Support with Sword/ Axe, Longbow (Berserker Stats)
2. Condition DPS with Axe/Torch, Shortbow (Viper Stats)
3. Full Heal / Support with Staff (Magi, Stats)
A good starting point for any crafted Acended set is honestly just to craft Zojja and then stat swap to different stats, and since you already have ascended berserker trinkets, it probably wouldnt be a bad choice to just go for the power based build until youre ready and/or have the resources to try out something different.
Personally, the only time I’m on my ranger is to run t4 fractals and I always pug them. I chose to run the Magi variant for the full heals and support, and I most certainly do not regret it. Its amazing at just how many players that I carry through fractals with a support druid.
And there are some niche options, like zealot’s druid or condition druid whcih have more circumstantial uses….
23 lvl 80’s, 9 times map, 4ele, 4ncr, 3war, 3grd, 3rgr, 2thf, 2msm, 1eng, 1 rev.
Been There, Done That & Will do it again…except maybe world completion.
and thank you …
