Guild Wars 2

Could someone post the optimal Ranger Fractal build?

You said optimal.

If you’re looking for something a little less optimal: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fMAQBYgYpYP7vpITai94QJi/A

You say optimal, i’m thinking you mean, do the most DAMAGE. Stack with party and use greatsword or sword/axe (for reflects), and have a secondary long range weapon to fall back on. This will probably kill you alot when you get to 20+ fractals (and maybe even before), especially if using zerker gear. So if you’re going melee route, bring pvt gear, tough accessories, knights or celestial or soldiers.

Previous post this skills.net thing failed, but uh…maybe it’ll work?
If you insist on staying zerkers, being long ranged is probably your best bet, the power of axe mainhand and its bounces can’t be overlooked, but having a shortbow for second weapon on a single enemy fight, or a longbow when you need the range, will keep you alive and out of danger. If you’re this far back, consider supporting your party by sending in a tanky pet(drake, bear)
There are 2 viable ranger builds for supporting your party, and none i know of for pure dps. 1. spirit ranger, stay in 1000 range of your party and keep spirits up much as you can. 2. Traps ranger, stay in mid range/melee and keep the enemy chilled(and 2 other traps for dmg, or anti stuns, w/e you need).
There are some ‘popular’ builds that ranger is infamous for taking that do NOT help much. The aforementioned bear/longbow Marksman setup, where your main goal is to do dmg but never res allies, throw in heals, and you let your pets die so they cant even soak up dmg. The beastmaster, pets dont always live in fractals, though they dont die as much as they used to, so your main traited dps is dying, and you arent of much use. The zerker who tries to move into melee and dies every fight. The guy who runs ahead and pulls everything then dies (be aware of barrage roots and charging enemies).
Optimal? Eh, what i go with personally is a tanky ranger and alternate melee and axe, throw some traps down for protection and kiting, and bring pets that i dont have to watch much (bears, devourers) because i’m not really all that attentive to my pets. Currently at 39 fotm, (not failing 39, havent tried it yet) and waiting on more AR to advance to the 40’s
