So i have seen ALOT of hatred towards the ranger lately on the forums when it comes to the DPS potential of rangers, and survivability.

This is a 20/30/5/0/15 Build that will alow you to stack 10+ Bleeds (causing 650+ DPS/sec), Crit 2/3 shots for 850-1000 Damage, and shoot up to 2 arrows/second for 20 seconds out of 60 (1 minute). total DPS stacks to a MINIMUM CONSTANT of 2,250 output every second, continuously. total DPS can go up to 4,500 / second.

Skill’s and weapon usage: Use Quickening zypher, and switch pet as often as possible, but never use them together. never let the skills sit, they should allways be cooling down. Use Short bow as much as possible and Spam Skill #4 for vulnerability. if the enemy is doing to much AoE, switch to axe and torch, use the Torch’s AoE attack and kite the enemy through the flames.

Gear: Citadel Of flame Armor (Shaman’s Reward crit), with runes swapped to Supperior runes of the Scolar. Total gear Stats: 470 Power, 224 Precision, 24% Crit damage, 10% damage when full health, 1064 armor.

exotic berzerker Short bow (905-1000 dmg) With Supperior sigil of Earth (60% chance to bleed on crit)

Axe // Torch on switch With +Healing power and +Toughness, this is ONLY used on the bosses that bounce damage back to its source. Supperior sigil’s of fire / earth Help here to increase the damage and possible critical chances.

ALWAYS kite, NEVER stop moving. and use Ash Legion Spy Kits, they will quickly become your friend. https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Ash_Legion_Spy_Kit

Remember, YOU are your own worst enemy. enemy’s that reflect projectiles will cause you to kill YOURSELF.
