Guild Wars 2

Hey,
I recently started playing ranger and created this build:

I don’t know how meta or otherwise orthodox it is, but it feels really strong. I have the legendary torch so I wanted to make a build that uses it on ranger now that it got buffed. I would like comments if there’s something I should take instead. For example I have the healing spring on downed trait,‘coz I didn’t find anything better on that tier of traits, but maybe I’m wrong.

That’s more or less one of the meta builds. Cleric’s is a bit defensive for my tastes at the moment, but ok.

It’s completely down to personal preference at this point. Nature’s Protection is a good alternative to CoL, it’s usually one or the other. Sharpened edges is an alternative to the 2 in MM, especially if you were to use a rabid amulet. I hate the pig family, but a small minority of good player like them. I also always take sigils of energy.
