Hello,

so i’m leveling up a ranger and need some advice on which weapon combination to use on switch. I’ve decided to use Greatsword as the main weapon.

The build i’m going for:

Gear will probably be Berserker with a couple of Knight pieces.
No dungeons, no WvW.
No bows. I already have a LB/SB ranger, i want a different leveling experience this time.

What do you think would work best:
- Axe/Axe?
- Axe/Warhorn?
- Sword/Axe?
- Sword/Warhorn?

Main concern i have is tagging mobs in larger events. Also, i really like the sword, but sometimes it gets a bit out of hand when i have a running mob targeted and i start jumping all over the place. I guess you get used to it though.

Thanks in advance, and Go Rangers! ^.^

In case of open world PvE, you can pretty much use anything you want. But going axe/axe would give you better AoE damage, and switching out ‘Signet of the Wild’ for ‘Signet of Stone’ would allow you to get more berserker gear. Entangle is also better in PvE, unless you are fighting a single boss, or you need the stability for something.
