Guild Wars 2

I’m having delusions of grandeur; I’m pretty sure I’m a god. I cannot be defeated 1v1, I’ve slaughtered everyone who dared look at me the past few weeks. If you’re on SoS or YB, help me get over this. Behind the monkeybars I mean windmill.

Are you on NA?

Ya on FA. My build doesn’t work in PvP because I’m cheating using the runes I’m using.

Aw.

Woo! Dodged one bullet.

Gah, I’d like to oblige since I’m on SoS, but you’ll have to wait… What’s the build?

Basically the one in your thread. I have a few changes I make if I have time when I see opponents coming. Obviosuly Sic Em is only useful against thieves mesmers and LB rangers.

The defender runes are obnoxious. I’m not sure why more people aren’t running them on all classes. If Anet ever reads my threads I’m going to be kittened, because I’m totally reliant on those things at this point. My skill level is plummeting.

I use those runes on my guardian with mace and focus and they work well. I would never thought to try them on my ranger. In fact I am drawing a blank on how they would proc even…

Yeah, they are so good. Thankfully people see healing power and think they are crap, but they are the best rune for roaming by far. I ran them on my Armor Mods/Heal kit engineer right after the runes came out and it was absurd. Love the rune with GS too. I’m imagining it works really well with WHaO/RT too, being 16s CD.

They are on my armor!

The aegis on heal procs on any class. And the regen procs on the GS block. That part is extremely minor.

This should also be posted on the melee rangers golden age thread. I recommanded Josh Glad to change his dwayna runes to defender on his melee build, not sure why he prefers dwayna but he thinks dwayna better for his build.

does FA ever meet up with JQ?

Why do you use celestial stats on your armour? Aren’t there any better options?

Probably. Basically I made the ascended armor and stuck defender runes on it, so it’s expensive. I don’t even know what I would replace it with. Zealots, cavs and valks or something? Celestial is just easier. Edit: Easier meaning I like to run all sorts of weird builds and celestial fits most of them. If you were min maxing it would be “easier” to find the right armor combo.

Nope. The tiers are pretty well locked in.

That’s usually a matter of personnal preference. Some people will be better with some runes than with others, because of the way they play.

permanent regeneration heals for more than defender runes (if you dont count the aegis).

If you can get defender runes on top of permanent regeneration (easy with shouts), then that should be better than dwayna runes of course. But maybe he needs dwayna runes to get (near) permanent regeneration without shouts. Having troll unguent with condi clear could be superior to heal as one if you already have regeneration.

If you replace Muddy terrain with Guard and replace heal as one with troll unguent (which you already have traited), your build might be even better. You also gain a pet with stealth from which it can safely taunt and land its attacks without tells.

You can use troll unguent as soon as you start taking damage rather than having to wait like heal as one.

I would lose a major source of condi clear and the immob though. If I have to blow one of the survival skills for a condi clear, I pick MT first if everything else is equal. LR and Entangle are good to save for when they’re appropriate. Healing isn’t a problem with this build, but it’s slightly weak on condi removal.

Also MT is just a really good skill, I use it to chain CC people. I overlap the durations slightly and people just sit there and die.
