I haven’t played this game since the last beta for HoT. I’m getting my kitten thoroughly kicked in the HoT areas and wanted to try out this whole Druid and Staff thing. Can anyone suggest any good DPS builds I could possibly solo with in PvE?

I use hybrid/condi longbow/staff. It’s glass (rampager) with enough dmg and healing tics to always have access to celestial avatar form. It’s also the strongest way to deal dmg with the staff imo. It solo clears HoT good but it won’t win you a spot in high fractals though I’m sure.

What gear should I focus on?

Which attributes are more important?

Kyosji right now i’m using a maraurder build with some healing trinkets.
Go maraurder (you can buy the recipe at the master crafter) and play with the trinkets until you feel confortable with the healing/health/armor.

Shouts with trooper is a really solid build now with the new shouts (both of the short CD ones are for protection).

Now you have to play with the build and experiment.

@anduriell not sure what you’re exactly saying here. If I go Marauder, i’d have to learn the recipe to craft marauder gear? Is this a damage or heal based setup?

It’s a damage based build, you should mix with some tank trinkets as i said.
Just go to gw2skills.net and play with the numbers.
Do not expect anybody to give you the winner build for the ranger (and now the druid) there is not because how the profession is so broken, ranger is one of the most difficult professions to play with as soon as the difficulty increases.

One of the best things from HoT was that made the players that used the rangers only for the fast farming is to make the task really difficult. Just have patience an keep practising and experimenting until you find a build you are comfortable with. You will see how HoT is really easy then.
