rangers have stability and endure pain...
Only Warriors are allowed to have tools designed to hard counter their hard counters. Every other class is expected to suck it up.
elementalists have diamond skin though, that kinda hard counters condition necros
Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!
Diamond Skin is only useful in 1v1! So it’s not very useful at all anywhere except maybe 1v1 tournaments!
Wahoo! Bye frands!

Last time our ele used D-Skin was against a pug with Teldo and stuff. They had 2 condi engis and a condi necro. They were kinda mad after the match. :<

But unlike those other things, eles get DS at the cost of a god-awful build that will be trashed by anything not condi. Whereas Warrior just slaps zerker stance into his build.
You’d think masters of wilderness survival would be better equipped to deal with things like bleeding, crippling, poison, chills, burning, and other life threatening conditions you could run into in the wild.
As is rangers have pretty bad active condition defense. You either need to run with a utility dedicated to condition defense or one of two grandmaster traits, and strangely two of those three options just pulls the conditions to your pet. o.o That seems like horrible, abusive behavior to me.
“Oh no, I’ve been poisoned and I’m bleeding to death! Here, my faithful animal companion. You can bare my burden and suffer in excruciating agony so I can keep going!”
Doesn’t exactly sound like someone the animal companion would want to be around.
