Hello, and thanks in advance for the answers!
I’m using the ranger for PvE content, and I decided that it’s time to swap into the druid.
Usually I used a full berserk build pewpew. I really like Ranger since gw1 and I used it a lot in pvp and even a little ’in WvW.
I was looking for a character to be dedicated exclusively to PvE, and my choice fell on the ranger and druid.
So my question is: Do you have some good builds for ranger / druid for HoT content, fractal and raids? even with different builds.

Currently I am full berserk, full ascended, and I would not like to change equip. But I can do it if needed.

Some people find that the Condi Ranger/Druid build to be very good for soloing the mobs that can be hard to fight as a straight Ranger.

Your best bet is to check out http://metabattle.com/wiki/MetaBattle_Wiki this is a very useful site and is constantly updated when game updates are released.

I for one use it and many others do as well. For myself however I tend to modify the builds slightly to suit my own play style. Tho of course there are times when you can’t modify a build cause it just works so well.

So full rabid? Or Viper is better for fractal/raids?
In this moment i play with this build : http://metabattle.com/wiki/Build:Druid_-_Offensive_Healer
But i have problem in HoT exploration.
Suggestions for change the build if I am alone?
I’d also like a lot to play a healer build, but I’m not sure it will work.

How this build works in high level fractals and raids? With this tons of toughness there is not risk to take aggro?
sorry for the bad english,

It doesn’t work in raid and probably neither in high level fractals.
I didn’t read your message thoroughly. Ignore that build

Current 2 meta builds + 1 optimal build for raids or babysitting higher fractals:

Power: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vNAQNAsXVnMqA1sitqAOrAEtiFGBD+pWVzqOfugVMgpA8tCAl48UA-TJRBwAAOFAkLD84JAcd/BA

Viper: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vNAQJA3fnMqA1sitqAOrAUtgFGBjpA8tCAwP1qaWtJCUrSalMlzA-TJhAABA8AAgZ/BoPIA5XGAA

Optimal support build: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vNAQJAWTn0rC1sitqAOrAEtgFDBjJAsuaAwb1waZ1Z11s6Bl8hzA-TZRBABAcIA0/CAIWZgs2f4hnAAA
(toughness shall never be above your tank’s so make adjustments of swapping necessary parts of Cleric into Zealot or Magi. Zealot is too expansive so Magi should do. In this build you focus on keeping people alive in case they haven’t mastered the content, Once you play with people who can dodge all deadly attacks this build is not needed)

For Vale guardian in raid – swap glyph of empowerment for Tides.
These are mathematically the highest scoring builds at this moment.
