Movie showing how fast i can murder a supply camp as a BM bunker build.

Wonderful for camps, but I’m not sure how it would work pvp? those stacks of bleed were really nice though… any videos vs players? I’m curious to see how it works out with ppl who use condition removals/transfers

Ehh

That’s my latest

I have more on my channel

Pooka can admit when he is wrong.. I thought I had the perfect build and I still think its very viable as a glass cannon.. but.. kitten.. this guys build opens up a new world.. I had all the bunker armor etc as I was working on a bunker/ traps build.. so i just changed out the signets. and ran this build.. went into WvW and wasted a thief and a elle and an engineer at the same time.. They had to call in a group to get me..

Can Pooka say.. he loves you?

I have a couple of rangers I use for WvW.

1. Zerker gear/glass cannon/longbow/sb 30/30/10/0/0… have around 50-60% crit chance with around 80-90% crit damage, typically run spiders as pets. This ranger is good for piercing attacks through massed foes. Barrage from LB is the central weapon, useful against those on the walls, or those sieging walls, or in the middle of a pack to slow retreat. If there is any large scale action or keep taking/defense, this is the one I play. I use healing spring, RaO, muddy terrain, speed trinket, condition removal trinket. You must be aware of position at all times, evade and fall back in the face of a threat.

2. SB 20/20/0/0/30 magic finder build with wolves. I run around in MF gear and flip camps, kill sentries solo. I get my daily done on this while putting pressure on undefended camps etc. This guy is not very strong in any kind of 1 on 1 matchup. You can do a lot with a strong pet, sent it in, get aggro, pull it out, pet swap to dump adds, and take out one guy at a time. I went with piercing arrows and faster short bow attacks which allow you to line up several targets and bring them down at the same time.

I have heard of bunker builds (0/0/30/10/30) in which you run defensive gear and let your pet do the damage (typically cats), and you build for regeneration. Your damage is weak and limited to pet burst from jaguar, but you are hard to kill. My experience is they are bad for flipping camps as DPS is so low that someone will likely arrive before you finish. I would much rather run my guardian who in a strong altrusitic healing build with a hammer can put out DPS and survive.

I have heard trap builds are fine where you drag people into your traps, and you use entangle etc. I really hate giving up the run speed trinket, and I really hate not having the condition removal trinket, but I suppose you could dump both for more traps. Entangle is a real game changer at times; RaO means you can avoid CC and get away from bad situations.
