A lot of dmg,mind that the 8k from Drake is aoe..I know that this is a ideal situation but still even if we cut in half the total dmg output it will be a lot

Zerker Rangers imo are fine..
The current meta is whats make em not a viable option not the skills-dmg-etc..

The meta change fast tho,Trap Rangers used to be very strong and now noone plays em(not a single change have been made in Traps).So i think that if Anet change a skill now maybe in a new meta will be OP..

Also who said that Pets got nerfed?8k (sometimes even10k) aoe from Drake!
Actually are even better!

Yyyyyeah, drake will never hit a player with that skill, unless they are rooted (something this build can’t do.

So it’s more like 10k in 6 seconds, BUT an actual player wouldn’t sit there and take it. They would dodge, so that takes away about three hits. So now you’re down to 7k damage, but they can dodge again, so lets take it down to 4k damage. But wait there’s more! Most classes have a way to block damage you picked heavy golem so I’ll pick guardians and warriors. Assuming they have dodged once their skills will block the entirety of the rest of Rapid Fire, bringing your damage output down to a whopping 0k DMG.

BUT WAIT!!! You say, those dodges and blocks will not be up in the 8 seconds for my rapid fire to be off cool down. But by the time those 8 seconds are up they have closed the gap, and since you have to survivability they have stunned you (since your stability signet has been used (maybe you get RaO off, but it’s probably on CD) and killed you, or made you use sig of stone.

So now you might have survived with half your HP, so you do your rotation again, but your signets are off CD so you’ll be doing at least 25% less damage, and they’ve recovered at least 1 dodge roll, possibly 2. You use #4 to push me back (check for stability) and do about 4k with rapid fire. They’re now at 75% health and you’re at 50% without any damaging skills to work with. I could go on, but I hope you get the point.

Oh, and condi builds just have to look at you real hard, and then bye bye.

I’m sorry but that title and the video title is totally misleading, I clicked the video then closed it.

How can you compare a >stationary< mob to player vs player?

No.

i dont understand why the attack…I said that this is an ideal situation,im just showing the possibilities…All the QQers waved a war against me…

Also every skill in this game,every single kitten one can be dodged,dont act like only Rangers Rapid Fire cant be dodged,or Drakes aoe…Start not using autopilot on pets and you will be able to land the aoe more often

I’m not waging a war or trying to insult you. But you didn’t post a video against an actual player, so I ran through a likely scenario. As for dodging, my point was that it drastically reduces rapid fires damage. As for your auto pilot pet comment…. just… no. We have no control over when they do their special attacks unless you have thm on passive. The FIRST attack of a pet will be the special crap, like lung on dogs or tail whip on drakes. This means your pet will just be sitting ther and you’re missing out on possible damage. Also, tail whip takes so long to activate and it’s a stationary move, that most players will be no where near the drake by the time it finishes.

Sorry you took offense to the comment. It was not meant to be inflammatory. But it’s post that say everything is fine with the ranger, that rustles my jimmies.

The rapid fire only went up to 10k damage. That’s 10k over 4.5 seconds. That’s really not impressive in the least. Now that said, there are tons of videos of serker ranger footage with rapid in the 10-15k, even 20k range. But there’s also footage of Warriors and Thieves do that in a single hit. Warriors can do that while regening 1k hp a second. Thieves have stealth.

If it’s fun for you, then go for it. I’m not convinced it’s as effective as you make it out to be though.

Also consider the fact that the golem npcs have low armor same as all other npcs, it will probably hit for at most 6k against any high toughness build assuming they just stand there and take it all without dodging/blocking/invul.
