Guild Wars 2

I know it is still early to tell, but I was wondering what stat(s) could work best with Druid. For me, it is going to be either Clerics, Apothicary, or Zealot. I think I’m leaning a bit more towards an Apothicary staff/axe-WH setup myself. My reasoning being:

Druid puts out somewhat consistant debilitating condi’s, which would be good to have condi – duration foods/misc. stuff on to boost. At the same time, this would mean one would be getting a large boost to potential condition damage while giving the debilitating condi’s a chance to stick if other condi’s are there to get in the way. Also, condi damage output is really easy to increase, while power takes at least 2 stats to be really effective. And Zealot gear is pricy :\

But at the same time, there are many skills that would benefit greatly from having higher power. So I’m kinda in-decision…

I’ll be sure to try all 3 this upcoming beta.

hello,
i will try to play druid with zealot gear, becouse i like the idea of an offensive supporter and i dislike healer only classes

if zealot will not work as good for me as i imagine, than i will be playing powerranger (zerker/knight)

I’ll be using Sinister gear and leaning heavily on condi damage and control. I don’t see myself equipping the staff in its current state.

I’ll craft Legendary Armor, and switch betwin Celestial, Sinister and berserker roles.

And i have made all achievements in LS, so i have Tough/vit/HealingPower for raids and WvW xD

full zerker, like always

A mix of zerker and soldier.

I have full ascended:
-Clerics
-Apothecary
-Berserker
-Sinister
-Dire
-Rabid
-Celestial
-Cavalier mixed Assassins

across 8 rangers. So will be experimenting

I’m in the same boat as kiwi

I got armor/trinkes for
- Apoth
- Zerker
- Sinister
- Pvt
- Cele
- Caverlier

and a variety of different weapons

I just made my first ascended staff today an it is celestial (i have celestial every thing for when needed) as it will be the first set of stats ill used until i understand how it works

I’m gonna stick to Zerker for PvE for now, since the base heals seem pretty beefy, especially with the increased healing effectiveness trait we get.
PvP I’m going to try Settler’s, since the effective health on a build like that is going to be stupid high, and Ranger has enough condition damage that their damage won’t actually suffer too much from running a tanky build.
WvW I’m thinking either Settler’s or Shaman’s, depending on what causes me more problems. SotF+Druid gets disgusting amounts of condition cleanse, so the extra vitality of Shaman’s gear might not be necessary.

LOL so much for the statement that the Zerk Meta is unsustainable.

Time will tell

I made my ranger a mix of cleric/zealot gear with zealot/cleric/magi trinkets~ The stats aren’t that bad and she has 20k hp :P so i cant wait to test it when beta comes Lets hope its good!
