Guild Wars 2

I have been experimenting with some PVE builds and starting running this:

TRAITS:

Marks: 20 (keen edge, piercing arrows)
Skirmishing: 20 (bleed on crit, pet gains might on crit)
Wilderness: 30 (wilderness survival recharges decreased, offhand mastery, empathic bond)

WEAPONS:

Gear: Rampagers, runes of the centaur
Weapons: Shortbow (sigil of earth), sword (energy), warhorn (earth)

PETS:

Double cats for PVE (jaguar, stalker), wolves PVP.

SLOTS SKILLS:

Healing Spring
Sharpening Stone
QZ
Signet of Stone
Rampage as One or Entangle

BUILD USE:

Pre-buff with the warhorn + sharpening stone and then call the birds on them. Pop QZ and spam shortbow on the enemy. You will land 25 stacks of bleed instantly and the pet gains 25 stacks of might from all the crits. Deals monstrous damage and spread bleeds in PvE with piercing arrows. Very simple and hilarious. Destroys the champion grawl shaman in fractals.

Actually there is not much that this build does not decimate.

I go 25/25/20.

I use Longbow instead of Shortbow (I’ve used both, but I keep going back to LB).

And I use Call Owl, Viper’s Nest, and Signet of Stone.
