Guild Wars 2

Good day rangers.

After the patch a lot of people suffered an inminent dead trying to find a new build. I have been reading every new theory since the leaked notes but I didn’t feeI comfortable with those. I really liked the Condition damage and my Pet doing damage while I was under the effect of Regeneration. So I did a Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) to my ranger and I made this build that works fine for me.

Condition / Pet / Regeneration (CPR)

Pros

• 8.5 secs of fury / weapon swap (42% crit chance)
• 7.5 secs of swift / weapon swap
• 50% Boon duration
• A lot of bleeding and conditions
• Pet with might stacking and ranger boons (fury and swift)
• Condition Removal
• Good healing power.

Main Traits

1. Companion’s Might: While you have fury, try to crit every you can. Splitblade is your best friend.
2. Sharpened Edges: People think that 1 sec of bleeding is not enough. But with splitblade, you get 8 stacks, and with every crit hit there is 66% of bleeding your foe.
3. Remove 3 conditions every 10 secs and 2 every dodge (10 sec CD). Evasive purity is broken right now, but it will work someday.

Weapons

1. Axe/dagger: Crits and bleed. Might to your pet.
2. Sword/torch: Fire and poison. Pounce gives might to your pet!

Utilities

1. Troll Unguent: You can choose Healing Spring if you want, and change Nature’s Protection for Nature’s Bounty.
2. Guard/Signet of Renewal: Your choice! I think that there will be a lot of Condition Damage users in this patch.
3. Signet of the Wild: Passive regen.
4. Signet of the Hunt/Signes of Stone: Mobility or more Toughness

Pets

• Jaguar or Jungle Stalker: Jaguar has synergy with SoH ( pet with fury and might ). The Stalker provides 5 stacks of might for 10 secs (+fury and swiftness).
• Cave Spider: Combo with poison cloud, and weakness ( 50% of glancing blows ). Long Range = less deaths.
• Marsh Drake: I like the aoe, and he has a 900 range. Poison is useful vs heal.

How to play
This build was made about weapon swap. So you need to swap your weapons when you need Fury and Swiftness. Every swap gives you 8,5 secs of fury.

I have used this build in PvE and WvW as a duelist. I think it won’t work in PvP.

I have played with this build since patch and I feel ok. This build also works with clerics. Or you if you don’t like healing power, you can user a Rabid’s armor for more crit chance.

Please make suggestions for improving this build. It is just another build for playing so don’t be rude please.
