Guild Wars 2

superior air / major air.

major is buggy and has an icd of 3 sek like the superior. dmg is the same.

i did opening strikes for around 9k at 1500 range agains glass thiefs or eles.

sure. but they have to be a different quality

Force and night are much better in PVE due to: 1) full zerk grear 2)constant high DPS 3)Lots of buffs form group and the scaling of the bonuses.

Air/fire or air/air(superior / major, and ya you can use both) are better in PVP/WVW due to: 1)most of the time not full zerk build 2)Spike damage over constant high DPS
3)Most of time you wont enjoy group bonuses the way you do in PVE.

full zerker is the way to go in wvw with a ranger

fire is better for zerker spec in pvp because the target dodge so the icd is less important.
for pve both are about equal but fire gives aoe.

In sPvP I use to run Air/Fire but lately I’ve been running Force/Air for the higher, more reliable damage on LB through piercing. Still have fire on my GS for finding stealth targets however.

If you auto-attack with the GS and it goes into the 2nd combo swing (Slice), that means you hit a stealthed target. So you won’t really need Sigil of Fire on GS for it. The sigil is handy on longbow for Barrage.
