Nice build/vid… Your build should even be better with new changes coming to lightening reflexes and (fingers-crossed) more immediate pet F2 execution.
Thanks for the comment. Based on the patch coming in April this may be very versatile build with new traits coming and condi clears. I’ll wait and see what actually comes any pet ai changes will deff be welcomed as part of our dmg is mitigated by pet reaction time and useless control at times atm.
I am also debating adding Dire armor to the equation finishing to many fights at 100% life that could be over faster with stronger condi dmg.
Thanks I had been over there for awhile so I think they had called out the troops. The warrior was seeing red, didn’t stick around for the second warrior only because I knew more were on the way.
heya there great video! the build seems to be a close variation to my Re-port331/ Re-PortV. Its always been a blast to play and really surprises people when you lay it on them.
Im interested to see what you do with the patch . some of the changes i have planed are really going to improve my existing build paths. so Rangers have some exciting times ahead!

@ Hyjaxx Thanks for the comment. Interesting enough I was running the power version of this using s/d/ and gs for a long time before I watched one of Fauxs video’s with the cond version.

Pretty much every single time you post it’s to promote your "Re-port331 (whatever the kitten that means). Whether it’s to bump your 6 month old post or jumping into someone elses post.
Are you getting some kind of promotional fee every time you or someone else mentions it?
Why am I having visions of Vince selling his slapchop or ShamWow ?
….’for only $19.99, you can get the full version of Re-port 331…..but wait, if you call in the next hour you will also receive Re-portV ! Call now!!!!"

When someone uses the word ‘Meta’, a kitten dies. Don’t do it.
I just came back to the game and i had a ton of questions from people about the build and play style questions. I refer people to it because alot of new rangers have a hard time playing and the regen and evades make it easy for people to get the hang of things.
I have no reason to push my build other then i really like the feed back it gives, especially when there are a ton of changes coming. when i replied to this thread it was because i really enjoyed the video and thought it was great that the basic idea of my build is still viable despite it being months old.
and in finishing , the reason I brought my old build thread back is because people asked where they could find it. I also would like to add my new after patch findings to it aswell so i dont have several build threads.
Sorry if i upset anyone as it wasnt my intention.

Solid vid! I especially liked the fight in the middle, and how you kited those warriors. The last fight was great too.
My only criticism would be that it was a little long. A couple of the 1vs1 fights could have been taken out. Like those where you had food buffs and the other guys didn’t. The fights were well played on your part, but they didn’t stand much of a chance.

Agreed a little long this time, but the last fight I didn’t want to leave out. Your video was also well done I just don’t like no evade running a/t. It has left me to vulnerable at times. Thanks for the Comments.
