This is the very first time I have ever gave a really long look to Ranger, and I think I pulled it off.

What do you guys think?

Where are you planning to use this build?

Knight’s gear is very underwhelming for a Ranger as we have little innate HP. If you are going for survivability go Soldiers Armor and Valkyrie Accessories.

Sword/Dagger isn’t a normal combo if you aren’t using conditions due to the poor power scaling on the dagger. You are better off with horn as it provides a nice group buff.

BM tree is very, very weak as pets are rather weak. Unless the mob is standing still, and doing no AoE you’re almost always better off putting those trait points elsewhere.

Use Piercing Arrows or Spotter for your Master in Marksmanship. Eagle Eye is a 5% damage increase to LB, but piercing arrow can allow you to hit up to 5 targets, making that a 500% damage increase.

Unless you’re stacking Healing Power, using the regeneration trait is kinda silly. I would stick with Natures Protection or Spirit of Strength if you don’t want to use spirits.

Marksman 10’s best trait, hands down is the 10% more damage at 100% endurance. If you want the signet recharges that’s fine, but it will almost always underperform the 10% more damage at full endurance.

That’s about it I think, have fun on your ranger.

Better, just remember Sigils don’t stack, so 2 accuracy Sigils will be effectively useless. Optimal combo would be WH – Bloodlust Sword – 5% damage, Bow – Air or Fire.
