Given that you will be using this build purely for PVE Dungeon particularly the fractals of mist dungeon, what build will you use given that you will be using a shortbow?

Can you tell me the following:

1) What armor set should I use? (berskerer/carrion/etc)

2) What rune should I use?

3) What sigil should I use?

4) What pet should I use?

5) What traits whould I use?

6) What utility skill should I use?

7) What Elite skill should I use?

Thanks.

1- It depends on your build, i use currently a glass cannon berseker build, works fine anywhere if you can actually dodge (not adviced if you often get hit by “one shot” abilities.

2- Ruby Orbs, cheap and effective

3- Air/fire superior sigil works wonders, Air is cheap and boosts your damage.

4- Many, you can’t stick to only two pets, but if you do…devourers are probably the best for all kind of fights…they are tanky, ranged and deal decent damage. Raven/Hawk are great DD, so is Jaguar, Hawk F2 is quite good tho.

5- 15 points into Beastmaster are pretty much a must have, the rest depends on your build. I myself use 20/30/5/0/15 right now, works quite well.

6- Personal choices, i have QZ (you can use it for many situations like speeding up a cast, rezzing faster, opening something faster, shooting Barrage/Rapid Fire fast, etc). My second and third skills are Signet of Renewal and Signet of the Wild mainly for the passive and Renewal for an emergency.

7- Rampage as One, Entangle, and Spirit of Nature…all of them are great. For Fractals you will probably give much more use to RaO but Spirit of Nature it’s amazing in certain fights.

Just did 4 fractals in a row with the same random group having 3 rangers on the party…probably one of the best groups i’ve had for Fractals so far…3 rangers, a thief and a mesmer from lvl 9 to level 13.
