Guild Wars 2

I wanted to switch to magi/clerics on Druid and slap as much healing as possible. Is this useful for 75+ fractals and raids? I know the DPS is going to be pretty lackluster but I feel like the amount of utility makes up for it. Is this frowned upon or no?

Couple things.

Druids (rangers in general) aren’t brought for there dps. They are brought for the buffs they provide. This has mixed feelings for alot of people but makes what you want to attempt more reasonable than it would with other classes.

Your biggest dps contributions are gonna be from the buffs you provide. You also have your pet who can contribute about as much dps as you can if you spam f2 (assuming you have a tiger).

What this means is that you can actually go full healer without hurting yourself too much. One thing to keep in mind though. Boss agro is decided by toughness. So if your going to go healer you may want to go zealots or magi’s instead of clerics.

Its not the meta for sure. But you will likely be able to find raid groups. And probably will be useful in high level fractals. It’s easier to go full healer as a ranger than it is to go full dps just from how our mechanics and group buffing function.

The trinkets seem to be the biggest problem right now because everything comes with toughness. The magi rings are ridiculous to get cause you have to complete 2 collections of dungeon equip. I have only done VG once so I’m low on magnetite shards.
