Anything major change?

I looked through patch notes for a couple of minutes. I see some fairly significant changes.

Invigorating precision from 5 to 8 %
P/P buffed?

What else is new and significant?

I play S/P + Shortbow or S/P + P/P

Edit: Haven’t played in 7 months.

All is vain.

For PvE the ‘meta’ woulds be D/D with Sw/P and Shortbow depending on the situation; Shortbow is a must for blasting stealth (in black powder and smokescreen) where-as Sw/P is there for loads of blinds, decent cleave (and weakness) on Trash-mobs.

For PvP Shortbow is more or less a must for every build due to Infiltrator’s Arrow being rather amazing for quickly getting around the map and disengaging. D/P and Sw/D are both considered meta. D/P has high burst, some blinds where-as Sw/D has a lot of evades, dazes. Both bring Boonstripping through traits.

I’d like to recommend: http://metabattle.com/wiki/MetaBattle_Wiki as a start and tweek to your preferance.

MAAASSSIVE buff to venoms a couple weeks ago (CD decreased from 45 to 40 seconds!).

Nothing much has changed actually… There was a time where rangers stole our QQ spotlight for a bit… it was kind of boring on the forums during that time.

Glad to see you back though.

As the odd thief out with pistols i’m loving the buffs. Pistol range can be increased with the same trait that makes the attacks ricochet (Trickery X), which is just perfect, and Pistol 2 applies vulnerability AND immobilize, nice…

I play Guild Wars for WvWvW – Piken Square !
Marush Ifri, Noreena Gorun, Arsaname, Desra Ele…
