Guild Wars 2

A lot of different things. From playing ranger this one is definitely quite sustained but there are so many ways to heal but also he keeps distance. Notice he takes heat when close. Swapping pets grants boons if spec’d, staff, Astral force (Celstial)….so many ways to heal. Probably in my best guess more of a support build where he can hold you off until help arrives.

Here is a good healing vid for Rangers though geared mainly for Raid helps understand what he/she may be doing.

I don’t think this example was a good case of ranger sustain – his survival was more dependant on him kiting a lot of your attacks. Plus, you spend a good portion of the video swapping targets – you rarely focused on the druid himself.

Based on the damage he took however, I would agree with usned’s assessment – it was probably a ranger support build.

Mostly likely the ranger was running the bunker druid build most likely with the magi amulet hard to say it was this exact build but it would be something based on it.

I highly doubt he was using that amulet.

You were just getting outplayed.

Why did you make a video showcasing rangers sustain when in the very beginning of the video you show the result of 2v1 where in which you won? And why did you bm the person? A 1v1 ALONE vs your build is his hard counter already!

Then you go on to 1v2 and die on node with no kiting. What exactly are you trying to prove with this post here?

why do you bother to record your mic when the only sounds picked up are your keyboard & mouse?

i’m just going to say 2 things to you:

1) it’s a friend NOT me.

2) and most importantly u say he was getting out played… whatever dude, look closely to minute 1:05 and SEE how he took all that dmg like it was nothing… i mean he just inmoved him, burst him with all and still he survived… pls do something productive and give me his build and stats… cause i DO NOT think he’s using magi’s and i rally nedd it for my ranger.

entitled much?

just message him on reddit yourself and ask for the build. https://www.reddit.com/user/Paulol

magi was played heavily in Helseth’s tournament, idk if Paul played it- but Magi druid is a ‘thing’. you can trawl thru the VOD on Helseth’s youtube if you like, but it’s not something im motivated to do for you.

thx.

took damage? what damage is that? 1 skullcrack and random burns? maybe try adding a second mace burst in short succession…. you call that damage? even a necro could tank so little damage from a macebow who just spams bursts while the guy has not blown any of their condi removals yet. or was the macebow expecting to burst the druid down in one half baked rotation?

besides none of those were 1vs1 or proper teamfight where you would get a teammate to help focus him down. all those fights were in the druid’s favor so you cant say druid’s sustain is op but more like outgunned, out-rotated and out-kited

I disagree. Look at 1:05 like OP states. He definitely taking a lot of heat and see his health go up and down.

However the point is the OP just wants build info as he is not complaining.

The ranger is good with rotations / celestial / heals. I don’t think anyone is questioning the ranger is good or bad or why someone would question the OP is good or bad. OP outlasted thief and ranger for quite some time so looks like a good fight to me.

Druid is using the normal meta build. Honestly though that game was just all around downhill the class match ups were iffy the other team had 2 supports(druid/tempest) + a scrapper that alone is tough to deal with. On the flip side your friends team had no support.

On top of all this almost every clip shown your friend was outnumbered 2+and to wrap it all together their was next to no focus fire from teammates which is imho the most important thing in any game because even with the iffy matchup if 2 chronos are runnning moa the kill potential is without a doubt there, more effort is prob required but not going to happen with that level of no focus targets.

I consider rotations to be the most important thing in any game followed by proper peeling in teamfights. If only one team is peeling in a teamfight, that team is winning it.

I am actually more annoyed at the fact that given how much team support druids bring, sustain and damage, they also got RTL on short CD along with other gap closers. You shouldn’t be able to have so much mobility when you already have great numbers in other aspects.

1:05 Your friend messed up.
Look at 1:07, doesn’t check for stab before landing headbutt => allowed ranger to plant multiple seeds of life. He doesn’t even wait for ranger to come out of CA form before bursting.

“didn’t make mistakes this guy just took the dmg” lol

Paul is one of the best players in the world you can’t really use him as an example but yes Druids can have plenty of sustain in certain builds.

dude, the only thing im going to say to u is that, with ALL that pressure he had… stab would be the last thing i would take in consideration… on top of that look at the amount of boons paul had, anyways the build… that paul never answered me in reddit… i wonder why. “lol”

yes sir, that is true but, i’m really having a hard time finding that build…

are you going to pretend that druids don’t have rtl on short cd?

Stab was all he needed to spam #2 CA. Everyone knows to save their burst after a ranger comes out of CA form.
