Guild Wars 2

Hello everybody,

after 3 years of Yolo-build-go-zerk-or-fail, I’m having a lot of problems in new maps.
That could be due to my lack of skills in this game, but I have the feeling that something has changed for good.
Actually, I’m happy to be “forced” to change build and playstyle, so the question is:
what is the build you’re currently using in new maps?
“Still zerk, i’m pro” is an option not suitable for me, I’m not good enough.
Any idea you mind to share?

PS: sorry for my English, not native language.

Show us your build 1st. http://en.gw2skills.net/editor/

I didn’t come to a good build yet, an idea could be the following one

What I’m searching for is a good power (or better condition damage, but I couldn’t find a good setup) while being more resilient to damage, some condition removal and good speed for exploring.

I meant the one you are using that is not working, maybe it can be tweaked a bit and save you buying new gear. Also, is Druid compulsory for the build?

Changed a couple of your traits around, added shouts for healing and mobility, plus trooper runes for condi removal, decent burst damage with Remorseless and Intelligence sigils, more resilient and over 20k health. Pretty cheap to setup.

Thanks a lot.
Druid was not compulsory, I just tried to fit it in a non healing centered build.
Even after all this time, I still have to learn a lot about ranger…. thanks again.

this is how i play…, im using longbow most of the time, though, couse in melee range im taking to much damage from enemies and if i dont pay any attention i would be permadead (im using greatsword rather defensive…, im also working a lot with lb nr3 to survive longer)
i dont really have any problems with dying to fast, or often

If druid is not compulsory for the build, swap it out for Nature Magic [until] you have it all unlocked.

Get black bear and trait:
Go for the eyes, wilting strike and beastly warden.

That’s like 25% dmg reduction for you and any allies fighting these mobs.
