been playing since game came out and finally made in my opinion the best build i have ever used so have fun fellow rangers http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vNAQNBhYD7kSFoXQsiFwhFgqFMgJU9yOABwfDNQk7Jej/4VsSK-TJRBwAiLDo5iAA4JAIb/BA please don’t knock it tell you try it. i was guarding tower had a mes that wouldn’t stop hitting me from on top of building kept killing the warrior that kept coming and i said in map chat i love this build then and a thief, warrior and the mes on me while there treb was hitting me killed them all and never died
I’ve made statements like this before…and then I took advice from others. If you’re happy with it, then by all means, that’s great.
Survivability is one thing…but no damage is another. You only have a 4% crit chance, but 150% crit damage…seems a bit of a waste imo.
Straight condi build…
you know 150% critical damge is base there is no avoiding having that amount if he decides to use it or not makes no difference to his build choice and play style.
to the OP its a great home , Mid fight Bunker build your role with this build will be to Dely and bunker points not go on the offensive , best played with a team of Zerker Medi guards and Condi shatter mesmers , for a wild Card Chill mancer will tie everything together you’ll provide high support and the ability to obsorb damage.
though i’d take a second look at your pets , and use a Lighting drake instead since it chains it will also Destory mesmer clones which apply the condis Eb cannot recover it also protects your team mates from shatters too.
with the amount of regen you are pumping out a drake makes better use of team might support if you come across any in Spvp.
the second pet should be a Immobo spider or Wolf for CC/ Peeling away since you have a Gs and sword one immobilise or Fear you could ether stack up the damage on one spot with lighting breath+your maul combos.
the fact you managed to draw the attention of half the opposing team means your build is playing its role in bunkering needing more players to force you off point , at this point i’d would of ran away and skirmished outside to slow any foes getting to the side nodes and make them use ports so the other defenders and attackers on your team have a easier time dealing with them as most of those mesmer+thiefs builds rely on ports to gap close and do damage , so forcing them to use the skills to reach nodes makes them less of a threat.
i’d defo use Runes of the Soilder with this build extra condi clears will make the regen much more Valued than trying to heal through damaging condis.
maybe even using a off-hand axe would be more helpful for the extra CC and push/pulls will extend your bunkering time by a lot in 2vs1 situations interrupting damage chains.
you can then change , windborne notes for AoE vigour or Evasive purity so EB cleanses are not wasted on those 3 weak condis plus poison will not pet Transfered onto the pet reducting its amount of heal per second again making the pet more damage obsorbant and not being blinded increases your damage uptime.
