Guild Wars 2

I still die faster then any other class in pvp, insta death all the time, dont even have time to press one button most of the time. Why did we get a damage boost when we need a major survability buff? In wvw we where fine and now almost op, in pve sure we needed the buff, but still survability is crap there too.

We cant hide around like theifs, atacking the disseapearing, if we could we would be fine now with theif like damage. But with the total lack of defense we are just screwed most of the time.

Not sure what’s going wrong for you, but I was doing fine with ranger before the patch hit (running standard power SotF build), at least in terms of individual fights. The only real limitations were the usefulness in point capture or large zerg content.

Ye not as if you had a 3 sec stealth on a 9 sec cd lawl. Not to mention CERTAIN skills which gives you either invulnerablity or a damage absorbing pet. Oh well good thing you don’t have all that huh.

The problem you are having is called “being bad”. Signet of stone gives 6 second damage immunity. You also have stealth, as well as either greatsword block or evades from s/d. Not to mention your pet can have fear or immobilize to help with kiting. Learn to play.

Before the patch I would win 95% of my 1v1 fights and easily escape 2v1s in a match. Are you doing something wrong?

Running 20 in marks 20 in skirmish 15 nature magic 15 or so about in BM
Im a beastmaster pet based build by default so how do i kill people? Well simply put longbow allow for damage spike knockdown cripple AOE damage might on crit spam and skirmish line is full of trait related to signets such as 3 might for 17 second and reduced cooldown. Spending 90% of my time buffed like crazy with might stacks or just going rampage with size enlargement its not as much the read the wind trait as my ability to have decent spiking upkeep something i couldnt get before when SOTB was still a trait and that longbow did peanut style damage now not only can i stack might like crazy (tons of hit at high rate im enjoying constant might proc as well as my pet) but i also hit serious damage. I think that change is most welcome to all ranger who didnt want to run that silly sword build to begin with (currently running axe-horn/Longbow in a go 25 might stack fashion style)

Tbh all sword ranger may be anoyed by longbow behing buffed but all those people who DIDNT want to run sword in the firstplace are currently in heavenmode (the day ill run one handed sword on a ranger ill just switch to thief lol)

Does the OP mean WvW? ….b/c we’ve know for ages that it’s not an issue in Conquest >.>

EDIT: wait he specifically said wvw after that…. okay this is only a bait thread… if I could delete my own post here I would. Don’t feed this thread folks
