Guild Wars 2

Hey guys, i have been thinking about this for a while , of how cool it would be if the ranger could use the torch as a main hand weapon. It could be easily used to fill some gaps in pet survivability and utility for the group . So hear are my ideas :

attack 1 – Ashen swings

-a short range AOE attack that inflicts 1 second of burning and 4 seconds of vulnerability on targetkitten . attack speed a bit slower then the greatsword . range 450 . cleave 120 degrees

attack 2 – Phoenix cloak

-applies a 3 second shroud to the ranger and allies in a 600 radious that gives protection and retaliation . Cool down 20 seconds

attack 3 – Flaming vortex

-circle targeted AOE with maximum range of 900 and AOE size the same as other standard circle AOEs . Everything in the circle is pulled toward the center and knockdowned . Weakness applied for 3 seconds . Cooldown of 40 seconds .

What do you guys think ??

I would love us have more group support, atleast for wvw. There’s zero reason to bring my ranger instead of my guardian,ele or necro when i run with my guild.

I would like to see the following torch skill

- Ranger payback ‘Set your pet in fire and watch it burn to death permanently. You gain 3 month buff of reroll protection.’
