The build revolves around stacking might on your pet while dpsing with your sword. The number 1 ability gives might to your pet, so the sword is inherently well suited for a BM build. This takes it a step farther by using Sigil of Strength and Sigil of Battle to give yourself might boons while putting them on your pet at the same time (from Fortifying Bond). Swap weapons frequently to make use of your offhand dps abilities as well as to stack might on you and your pet. Use the raven F2 when you have a good bit of might stacked for some big burst that can easily hit 10k damage.

For gear, berserkers is good, but you’ll want to have some pieces with defensive stats as well (vit and/or toughness) since rangers need a good bit of defense to survive melee.
