Guild Wars 2

Hello, all rangers off guild wars 2, i recently rolled a ranger, and tought hey i want a pure melee tanky dps build. i tried to mix things together, but didnt work out really well. so i decided to ask in the forums for any tips on how to get a tanky dps build (NO condtions)
please

Hey Tower,

This is my current build that I use that is very tanky and can do some respectable damage. It’s a pure melee build, but for some dungeons and fractals you’ll want a bow in reserve.

The gist is, you are tanky and can keep damage off your pet so it can be a beast and damage away on the mob. It works pretty well, I’m in the 40s now in fractals and don’t have issues with him (besides the normal ranger gripes). Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks, but do it work in the other two paths of the game, wvwvw and pvp?

Ya it does pretty well in WvW, it’s tough enough to handle roaming and most players ignore the pet, and that’s pretty dangerous with this build.

This is beastmaster build then?
