Guild Wars 2

What is a ranger burst?

Maul? This skill deals 5-6K full zerk on a light golem. Hardly A burst.

RF? RF is an low cd skill, channeled, I wouldn’t even call this a burst.

I mirror blade combo by itself, no shatters assuming its close range, 6k, Unblockable. Long Range.

Backstab? easily 8k+ In stealth, no tells, you get 1 more try for missing.

Maul is easily blinded, ported, evaded, distorted, interrupted.

I maul a mesmer, Ooops blinded by Mind wrack.

So what exactly is a ranger burst?

Maul is so freakin’ easy to avoid too. Any latency worse than your target’s and you look like an idiot throwin’ brearshadows at the air.

I know I know, burst is supposed to be a bit set up with stuns and roots and stuff. Just sayin’ it’s hella easy to avoid compared to other classes’ much harder hitting one button moves.

To achive good burst with a ranger you cant press lazy “2” button and wait for an armagedon. Maul with remorsless + attack of opportunity can achive 8k+ mauls very easily. RP with the right build can produce 8k+ dmage. Now, dont forget your pet is part of your class, raven F2 can crit for 4k and taunt, giving opening for your LB/maul. Rangers that master their pet , wreck.(We also have versions of condi burst)

Maul is meh, See it coming? Interrupt. See it coming? Port. See it coming? Blind. See rf? Block, reflect, dodge, LoS.
