GS/ Sw dagger, focused on Evades, is it good? Against Thieves/Wars/Guards?

I play it for fun. Greatsword is still lacking and in general without decent defense (condition removal, etc) you will still die even with the evade spam.

Most of the power ranger builds whether it is bow or melee seem to fail vs condition classes. At least that has been my experience.

I have played a Gs/sword/horn build that worked amazing vs anything except condition classes. And the current build I made is longbow/GS, and has great burst and great survival vs power but again fails against condi’s.

Signet melee ranger is very underestimated.

I don’t have a lot of time so in short this build gets:

-Lots of tankiness

-Good dps + nice maul spike when SoW and SoH are popped (crit or not)

-Extreme mobility

-Very good survivability

Cons:

-Weak to CD builds (as with most Ranger builds)

-Weak to superior kiting builds (Ex. P/D thieves, staff mesmers)

Make sure to use your pets effectively as well. Have fun mate.

Edit: I use HaO because I prefer the higher vigor uptime it gets compared to TU, but feel free to swap between the two and HS whenever needed.

I’ve tested this, and i gotta say it rocks indeed, did really good on most of 1v1’s…

really really good, gotta duel more thieves to see if it really shines over them.

Thanks man!
