ok with the greatsword nerf, greatsword was nerfed so much it became a joke on ranger, since 1h sword out dps it so badly.
and shortbow nerf didnt have as much of a negative effect as the greatsword, but was still felt.

thats 2 nerfs for ranger, and pretty much a broken class. other classes all have one form of burst dps while ranger is down to just rapid fire.

i heard rangers will be getting the greatsword rebalanced in november from several people in blackgate. can this be confirmed?
or is the class going to remain broken?

cause pets certaintly arent helping <.<

That’s a confirmation for nothing.
What happens if you keep playing ranger instead of changing now and the patch turns out to be bad, like the last 10 patches since beta that weren’t good for ranger either?

It confirms that the developers recognize the ranger has issues, and are working on them. You want patchnotes? Wait 5 days and see them for yourself.

The next patch that is coming out in a few days is supposed to have a number of changes for Rangers, it seems they will be mostly bug fixes and some buffs to utilities though.

Actually it only confirms that they’ll fix some of the utilities at best… Nothing more.
Not a single word mentioning about pets being useless in dgn, pvp and wvw, and not a single word mentioning about some weapons being underpowered…

According to the Anet I see for last 2 months, there would not be any miracle out there to save ranger. The more you expect, the more you will be disappointed. According to developtor’s post, they do not seem to recognize the real problem ranger faces….

Because they don’t actually play the game, that’s the problem.
If they’d make only 1 dungeon run or WvW run with Ranger, they’d buff the class by 300%.
But as already said, it’s only some fixes and buffs probably to traps and spirits. Nothing more.
Shortbow “bug”, pet pathfinding, low damage, low utility and all that will stay, as well as beeing the laughing stock of the other classes.

Devs do play the game, they just play other professions.

what will i do? well i have a lv 80 thief, a 80 warrior, and a 56 guardian.

if the patch notes turn out to fail then i will transfer all my gold to one of the other classes and continue on from there.
reason i want ranger is i like attacking from range, but i like to have the option to melee if i feel it will work out better.

warrior to bland…and not much fun spamming hundred blades non stop cause that skill is so OP.

thief is fun, but i would like ranger with all its condition removals (if ranger is broken i will probably go back to thief)

and guardian………fk i still cant come up with anything bad about it >.< that class is pretty much the only perfectly balanced class there is….give me a day or 2 and i might find something bad about it…dont bet on it though =/
