Druid for Raids- PvE - WvW
Raid build is pretty terrible tbh. It’ll cause the most problems on Vale Guardian since tanking is the hardest part of the fight, and you’re trying to do both tanking and healing. If you don’t mind tanking Gorseval, it can work there and it won’t cause any issues on Sabetha.

I have no idea how to improve it tbh without just saying use the Viper build. http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vNAQNAnfWn0rCtqgNrA2sCEtiFDBDerGWLrNdggVVjJAsuKdnMlzsA-ThSAQBa4QAYw9HikSwA8AAOl6PBUPAi0EAgTAQaU+5vjAApAgZZF-e
You’re trying to be tanky, heal and damage at the same time so my gut instinct said celestial. You’re still missing out on a lot of condi duration.

Come on.. That build is not tanky. I forgot to put the /s after and i apologize for that.
1.8K toughness in medium armor can’t be considered tanky.
The build is meant to be a healer but deal enough condition damage so you can tag in WvW/PvE and don’t feel completely useless in the Raid.

No, just trying to be heal/condi. Tanky enough to survive, but it’s not the priority.
The crystal and the sigil of transference are out of the question. Those are too expensive (sigil arond 40 gold, crystal around 1 gold each) to use them for anything.
I put some limits when i try to create a build: bleeds 100/tick and heals from staff AA 100/tick (with the 20% druids boon that is effective around 80 heal/tick)
All the new stats are all power based, and in a condi build power is unnecessary. But Viper sounds good i’ll to test it because you are right, i miss a lot of condi duration.
You can’t run that much toughness in a raid without being willing to tank

Dude you don’t know what you talk about. This is a power build that is tankier than mine. Power build that you could go for even tankier.

You should not have any problem with the tank unless the tank is a jerk.
That “power” build is using soldiers gear and trooper. O_O That’s not a real dps build.
Most tanks in raids try to go dps with as little toughness as they can get away with. Everyone else should be full dps and should have pretty much no toughness on their gear. The healer should be in zealots or anything with as little toughness as possible unless that healer is tanking at the same time.

Yeah sure, although we were talking about tank and not DPS… Also my build must have the DNT quality certification and Metabattle seal of approval right? Should i send it to them to see if they approve?

No it doesn’t, you can always set up your own raid. But if you are pugging and most tanks are trying to be as low toughness as they can get away with you are going to come into conflict with them when you join such pugs.

Actually i haven’t had any problem with my gear for except one dude that pretended to go full zerker.
In any other PUG raids the tank has enough common sense to wear tank gear.

Don’t get why you’re asking for help if you’re just going to insult anyone who tries and insist on trying to use the same gear for both raids and WvWvW. You have to get seperate gear or be suboptimal/mediocre in one game mode but not the other. But maybe you’re right, I don’t know what I’m talking about.
Well, that’s not optimal but it’s a pug so they do what they want and if they can beat the raid with that set up, good for them I suppose. Just giving you a warning just in case you do find yourself in a group and find that you are pulling aggro. The tank really doesn’t need full tank gear for this to be honest. Not if he’s a good player.

Hi, I stumbled upon your topic. If you are experienced ranger and understand druid mechanics, I would recommend you to run this build.

If for some reasons you need more heal, you could try something like this.

For dungeons and raids both of those are fine. However, he also had WvW tagged and I don’t think running full zerk is wise… You are not a guardian.
