So Rampage as One is back to square one?
I don’t get it either. Eternal Champion? Sure. That was a GM trait on a mechanic with a 15s cooldown that also gives stability when breaking stuns. On Infusing Terror? Maybe. That thing has been nerfed a couple of times that I’m not completely sure, but all right, let’s give it a pass since it’s not an elite.
On Ranger’s elite shout though? I know they said it’s to allow better counter play due to boon removal, but I call BS since it happened to only our elite. Not Dagger Storm, Rampage, Tornado, or Lich Form. They could have just done a test adjustment by lowering the stability stacks pulsed from 3 to 1 and go from there.
Synergy with Remorseless was also blown dead. I’m at the point I wish they would just do something better with the effect, even if it were completely extreme. Ditch the pulses, lose the one-time swiftness and fury, keep the blob of stability, but change the effect so you and your pet grant each other might and fury on attacks. Up the cooldown back to 90s or 120s to justify it even.
At least then, we can have that Remorseless synergy back and not be completely left out in the dust by a single Corrupt Boon. But seeing how weird they wanna be with balancing, they might place a pulsing fury on Most Dangerous Game come 3 months.
Maybe it’s an over-reaction, but this change is the most baffling. The shout might as well be renamed to, “Runt of the Litter…”

Will update once Path of Fire releases.

Maybe it’s in preparation of the next expansion. Like how they nerfed Thief Acrobatics trait line before HoT was released because they needed to sell Daredevil.
So maybe Ranger will get something like Facets next expansion. Maybe as utilities or to replace the pet with.
I wouldn’t care so much if all of our other elites weren’t equally as kittenty. As it stands right now I’d rather just take an extra utility skill in the elite slot because several of them would end up being more useful.

They need to make it pulls fury like it used to for remorseless builds to work.
This feels like a haphazardly thought out change where they wanted to remove pulsing stab and decided to just reuse the code from the original version of the skill because it was less work
see no evil ,until i stab you

Rampage as One isn’t a form/transformation.

That sentiment has been voiced many times over the years. There is nothing elite about many elite skills and basic utility skills would simply be better in the slot most of the time.
Signet of the Wild is rarely used, but it’s probably objectively better than Strength of the Pack at this point:
- Shorter cooldown,
- a passive effect,
- more movement speed,
- +25% damage instead of fury.

This is what I ended up thinking last night. The constant 25% damage over Remorseless fury is better, despite not getting Vulnerability and the little damage buff from Opening Strikes.
I would have switched RaO to SotW if it was possible. They used to be at the same cooldown before, but instead to rollback the cooldown duration, they leave it the same.
Original Version (game release)
Rampage with your pet, gaining stability, fury, and swiftness. You and your pet also grant might to each other when you attack.
Stability (20s): Cannot be knocked down, pushed back, pulled, launched, stunned, dazed, floated, sunk, feared or taunted.
Fury (20s): 20% Critical Chance
Swiftness (20s): 33% Movement Speed
Duration: 20sAfter a couple iterations it used to pulse boons every 3 seconds and now, with yesterdays patch it’s again a one time cast?
I don’t get this balance.
I don’t think any Ranger or Druid who isn’t using condi ‘gets’ this patch.

All I’m reading is noobs complaining about their safe space character meta build being adjusted. Learn to adapt and learn the class as a whole. The changes I find justified and all I play is ranger for 5 plus years. Y’all are aware that they adjusted stun skills right? And how stability is applied right? Also, the adjustmeants is for the next expension the leaks of the expension makes it obvious.
Less complaining more adapting.
And how stability is applied right?
Ya, it was to allow for easier boon removal. I.e. to make the skill weaker.
Calls other people noobs and fails basic reading comprehension and understanding of game mechanics…

Grant Block on stability….. read the notes.
My justification on calling players noobs vailad. They complain the most.
You fail too read and comprehend as well.

It’s “…grant a block of stability…”
Read the notes, again. Block of stability =/= block on stability.

Another troll from another subforum. Could you go back to where you came from?
And on the way out do not forget that the sentence now grant a block of stability up front in order better allow for counterplay through boon removal doesn’t mean you get a free aegis with the stability.
And i’m the one which english language isn’t its main…
Skills and traits that previously granted pulsing stability now grant a block of stability up front in order better allow for counterplay through boon removal.
I think y’all are confused. They way it is if you have 10 stacks of stability and a Nerco used a boon removal that removes 3 it would remove only 3 stacks of stability you still have 7 stacks on stability which in this case of the stability change.

When stability gets corrupted, all stacks get corrupted. This change was made so they it have to corrupted your stab once even though I think the CC in WvW can be more atrocious than The Condi meta at times

You’re the one calling other noobs ? Playing Ranger for 5 years and still don’t know how corrupt/removal boon work ? Maybe go play other classes, you apparently need it.

Every decent necromancer will be drooling over that telegraphed SotP cast.
anyone remember the facvt it got nerfed not long ago form 45 secon cd to 60 aswell, if they reversed that with this patch it would of been fine
