Why would you use Natures bounty when you don’t have anything that gives you regen (except Rejuvenation) or am I missing something really obvious here?

Axe could be better, but works just fine.

You survive longer and do more damage to more people with an axe (plus more support with a warhorn offhand) than you do with a GS. Mix in two Fire sigils on a high crit build and you will be getting aoe blasts on cool down.

And if you are going to go tanky in a zerg then just roll a guardian/warrior. You’ll be more tanky and be able to do more than tag for bag.

Solo roaming I have seen a new one out there that is the speed ranger. By far one of the fastest sustained classes I have seen in the game. Faster than speed warriors and with pet can out pace my thief which is an accomplishment. The rangers mained the sword and damaged via condition damage. The sword is the primary mover (not the great sword which could make it even faster I suppose). It does take some practice but the second sword skill can move a player about 900 every 4 seconds (when traited) at a sustained rate. Plug in a fear/immobilize pet and very few builds can keep up. Even if they catch you, they have to deal with a fear/immobilize, lots of evades and the ranger is sitting on all skills ready to activate.

Hopefully someone has posted a solid build if not I would try the typical condi-heal build and practice open field movement with the sword.

Before you let yourself down, you have to actually hit something with the first attack in the chain in order to activate the next parts that actually move the ranger forward (2nd and 3rd attack in the chain).

He’s talking about sword #2, which you don’t have to hit anything to use.

With sword, use the 180 turn button, hit #2, turn and hit it #2 again. Or just target an ambient or something behind you (or that you are passing), hit #2 to be launch away, untarget and repeat.

Not quite as good as great sword and takes practice but you can do it more often and it becomes second nature with time.

I see a lot of new warriors lately, even I got mine now lel

The Ranger would be nerfed every time because that is the law of Tyria.

This is the one. It is as effective of a build and play style as I have seen since they nerfed pets.
