Guild Wars 2

Ranger in PVP are OP, we all know that.

But in PVE, their overall DPS are lackluster the reason they (and I) always got kicked from teams right after joining. Not even giving us to prove otherwise.

It’s quite a shame that my Thief and Warrior that has exotic PVT gears and rare PVT trinkets simply out-DPS my 30 BM zerker Ranger with exotic and ascended Pow/Prec/Crit gear having them all traited to Pow/Prec/Crit stats.

ANet mentioned that they’ll nerf pets overall DPS. I can already see it in the unconfirmed skill changes post in reddit (if its not a hoax) – http://pastebin.com/2rrFg9pS. So there’s a huge DPS nerf on pets but not a single DPS boost on greatsword and sword skills on ranger.

ANet, Ranger + pet DPS are already poor in PVE compared to other class (specially Warriors and Thieves). If you intend to nerf pets, please only do so in PVP and leave their DPS in PVE.

ChyrosNX.1834:

Ranger in PVP are OP, we all know that.

Are you saying that every ranger is OP, regardless of build? Or are you referring to certain builds? Or do you know?

Beyond rangers though, I think there needs to be a split amongst the game modes for balancing. I am aware this would require more work in some ways, but I think in other ways, it would really alleviate a lot of issues.

And this is the right subforum for that. Good job!

Since u r using bm in instance. Try to use 30/30/5/0/5 u r going to have a great dps and penetrate arrow as aoe using SB/LB together. And the beast is still powerful in that build. All u need is decide which time go in or go out. This build is powerful in FOTM lv 30/40 . I have guard/war/rang in fotm and this build is the greatest and safest one.

BM/Trap/Duel Ranger is good in PVP but not PVE BM is good in open world also

That 5 in BM is now worthless.
Patch note:
Instinctual Bond: This trait has been swapped with Zephyr’s Speed. Quickness increased to 3s.
disappointing ranger patch again

^haha, wol lut?

Lots of classes been begging for skill Splits… I only remember 2 instances of it ever happening though. Pathetic. We know it’s not difficult either, I’d be shocked if there was any programming even involved. So it must be “pride” thing for them even though like 1/3rd of the skills in GW1 eventually got split. Nothing about it makes sense :\ …just like that post above this.

Why do people say BM is OP? Run any other build and try to stand toe to toe with a phastasm mesmer. BM has many drawbacks too. Rangers literally have one basic build right now where the idea is to give yourself and your pet huge regen.
