As a new ranger player Ive bought a set of berserker gear and runes of the scholar before HOT launch. I wanted to be a glass cannon that can deal a tremendous amount of dmg and im pretty happy with my gear now. However, since there are new armor stat sets and new runes in the HOT update, are berzerker stats and scholar runes still the best top choice for dmg? Or are their better options now? Also, is it good to play druid with my gear too?

Thx if u can answer

they are a option now , not the Best top damage .

the only thing Beserkers counts for now is the best Direct Damage though they are not the Best way of dealing damage anymore.

a combinaiton of condi+hybrid damage could easly end up dealing the same amount or more than a Pure beserker gear set for new HoT content (being more consistant vs all mobs and bosses) due to immunities and direct damage being less effect due to the mechanics.

Druid = Rampagers/vipers/carrions/dire/Magi i think pretty much everything But Beserkers gear maybe if you had Cavaliers+Zealots that would work , but druid Highly Benifits from Power/healing stats while the ranger core Benifits from Rapid application of conditions if you pick the right traits.

though don’t forget that pets got some condi stats so you can easly now , go full Zealots with Might stacking for pet+ranger using beastmastery , druid , nature magic combine those to increase boon durations+healing, might buff to improve damage on the zealots gear while buffing the Pets condition damage, ontop of that for a rapid increase in dps per pet swap using Zyphers speed.
