This is what gets me thinking. MoC + Glyph of Equality (2 sec daze), Lunar Impact (3 sec daze) and Primal Echoes (1 sec daze). So not counting short bow 5, or GS 5, or technobabel (asura trait), we have thee more dazes at 2, 4 and 6 seconds of duration in just druid traits/spec alone.
Ranger/druid lockdown spec?
Anvil Rock – Out manned, out gunned and no repair costs, so Leeroy up and dive in.
See you in Tyria.
Thats a pretty low amount of fury generation for a remorseless build
once per 10s from GS, once per 16s per heal, 4 burst with “SotP” 48s, once per 30s on pet swap. That is enough. Since Most of that is on demand and with so many procs of MoC, its a lot of burst.

Yep, totally! I better roll an Asura for Technobabble now lol.

Technobabble is a 3 sec daze baseline, 6 when traited with MoC. Wow…I’m going to be busy during the next BWE.

I spent about a total of 2 hours on the other elites for the other BWE (mostly cause reaper felt really already). But I have a feeling I’m going to spend the whole weekend working out builds! Haha.
I am thinking CC and heals as well. Crusader/Celestial is going to be hands down the go to for in wvw/pvp druid.
Rune of the mesmer might be really solid stat wise and good for extending our daze skills. In theory you could get an 8 second technobabble/lunar impact. Basically 16 seconds to do what ever you want at that point.
My only wonder is does quick draw work with transform, because if it does, holy moly you could chain Lunar Impact and not even need technobable. Edit: lunar impact is going to get nerfed. 5 second cd with a potential 8 second daze… thats not even taking quick draw into account .
I think that for pve clerics/settlers is going to be main meta with sword(or axe)+dagger / staff. They said there will be times that you wont have enough dodges. Meaning our dagger is going to be worth more. Sword is still our top dps weapon.
We may have more lock down potential and heals compared to any other class.

I Play WvW to have fun. I don’t find it fun anymore. Therefore I don’t play.
What is missing is staff for second weapon set, Glyph of equality and Glyph Alignment for utilities and Smokescale for second pet. Also superior Sigil of Paralyzation.
Between MoC, mesmer rune, SoP and RoM were talking a 160% stun duration boost.
Glyph of equality and Lunar impact could potentially be 20 seconds of 5 man lockdown(say wut).
Heals would still be massive. Id imagine staff auto attack will still pack a decent punch and gs will hit kitten dazed targets with maul and swoop.
There is going to be so much more flexibility(the thing I love about current ranger) with these glyphs.
Shame there isnt a power/healing power/condition damage gear stat.

I love the way that sounds. “The Remorseless Druid”. Sounds like someone messed with the wrong druid’s grove!
I’m personally considering a trapper druid set up. With all those methods to immobilize foes it won’t be hard to keep someone in your traps for the duration. Combine that with all the healing you get from the staff and traits and the trapper druid’s sustain problems could be a thing of the past. Plus staff has the range needed to deal with long ranged opponents, and Sublime Conversation is basically a hard counter to projectile users.
Good times ahead!
