Guild Wars 2

Just here to point out that “strenght of the pack” should be insta cast, since its a shout AND elite.

heal as one is a shout too. would love to have a 7k burst heal every 16 sec as a “shout”

I agree. Strength of the Pack should always have been instant cast. Same as Signet of the Wild. Our only sources of stability shouldn’t be locked behind a 1 second cast time.

“I’m going to need stability to counter CC, but please take a second to counter my stability with the CC I was trying to counter”.

It’s the main reason I run Enlargement. It’s our only source of stability without a cast time, but it’s not on-demand.

I guess they could give Protect Me 6s of stability otherwise.

Yup totally agree

Instant cast would be nice. I would also be down for a ¼ second like “Feel My Wrath!” (Guardian elite shout). Either way, better than 1s.

Hey guys,

I definitely share this concern with you guys. Something I do is trait Enlargement that activates when I’m at 50% health, and I run Shared Anguish. Together, they buy me time to activate “Strength of Pack”.

I know its not ideal but I promise you if its 1v1, they aren’t paying attention. In fact, today a Necro accused me of hacking today because he blew all his fears on me without any success – he also claims to have recorded footage, we will see how that goes.

I already see it. He’s going to look like an idiot.

That being put aside, the issue I see with Ranger’s stability is that none is instant and both have long CD. Both are used as DPS boosts as well, and the way they are now – I really feel strange to be forced to start casting SotP and Signet of the Wild like Mantras before I can start attacking. And this goes for both PvE and PvP.
