Im in love with the celestial stats.
Pls post your builds with celestial trinkets and/or armor and not just for ele
And stay with wvw (roam or zerg) if possible
Hybrid melee ranger. Its built to endure and burst. And if that fails, condies will wear your enemy out fast enough.
I was thinking in make a celestial ranger for wvw. The utilities and traits are similar my main problem is get a good weapon set. GS has the best mobility but it is pure direct dmg, Sword also has great mobility but the autoatck chain is annoying.
Has anyone tried to might stack with sword+warhorn/axe+torch or something similar?

It’s a bit difficult to stack might with axe since the duration is so short, unless you’re fighting multiple targets. WH will only grant you one might stack. If I’m running my ranger for might stacks, I’ll use a Jungle Stalker (5 stacks for a base 15 seconds without additional boon duration), sw+wh for fury + 1 might stack, and strength/battle runes on my weapon sets. It’s fairly easy to maintain a constant 15 stacks of might or more this way, and if I was running axe I could probably pull off maybe an extra 5 stacks if I’m just autoattacking like crazy.

if you wanna might stack on ranger, best way to do it is put 2 points into Beastmastery and take “Mighty Swap”, in addition to a Sigil of Battle on each of your weaponsets. You can easily maintain 9-12 stacks like that.
Condiremoval with my celestial build is good enough to offset most condi spammers. If more condi removal is needed, swap poison master for empathic bond and use River Drake instead of Snow Leopard.

Well just from sigil of battle boon durationhoelbrak we get around 12stacks base. Wass thinking about fortifying bound. Every time the axe is giving us a low duration might stack it is giving to the pet 1 stack for 16.75s. Maybe a might stacked pet can hurt in 1v1s

You can stack might & ferocity with axe and warhorn, but you lose it again pretty quick if you swap weapons.

I don’t particularly like to rely on my pet’s ability to stay alive, but you could pump up a lot of stacks really quickly with axe AA/str/battle/hoelbrak right as the pet goes into combat for some quick burst damage.
I personally run Traveler on my Ranger to free myself of SotH, which still offers a solid +15% boon duration and an extra 10% on top of that from 2 points in NM. It’s nowhere near the might duration you’ll get from Strength or Hoelbrak runes, but +25% to everything is a pretty good tradeoff, IMO.
