Hey all,
Been trying out rifle the past week or two and thought I’d share some of the fun I’ve been having in WvW:
Still new at the whole video editing thing, but I figured I’d try this spec out while I wait for the Ranger changes.
Build:

Cheers!

dafq, exact same build, complete berserkers equip. Only thing that’s different is you have the additional Signet of Might – haven’t hit 20k yet… What am I doing wrong?
What food/runes/sigil are you using?
Can you post your unbuffed stats (Power/Crit chance/ Crit dmg) pls?
Edit: Just noticed you have 25 Stacks of Bloodlust. So expensive fkn sigils but I guess it’s worth it ^^ However that still only accounts for some of those incredible crits O.o

Left stats are unbuffed vs buffed, I use scholar runes, butternut squash soup, sigil of force on rifle, and with food crit damage is 109%.
Make sure you have a bleed on target and hit them with Brutal Shot as well. 10% more damage on bleeding targets from traits, 12% from Berserker’s Power trait, 5% from Brutal Shot, 5% from sigil, 10% from scholar runes if > 90% hp.
Sometimes you don’t need all that to one shot someone, but it definitely helps to get the larger hits off.

You can do more damage without damaging your stats if you did 2 rifles and 2 GS’s. Do rifle/GS of bloodlust until you have full stacks, then switch to rifle/GS of force. You will keep your stacks of bloodlust until downed while having the sigil of force. So essentially you will have +250 power and +5% damage on both weapons, instead of being restricted to one or the other.
That said, I hope to not have to face you in wvw. =P
When i read “kill shot vid” i was hoping this would have been a spvp/tpvp video…
obviously i was wrong..

I just recently started running with 25 stacks of bloodlust, but I think only in a few clips in the video show it. I put a sigil of bloodlust on my sword/warhorn after reading Taugrim’s post about them stacking twice as fast if you have it on both weapons. I usually just run outside a keep and kill some wolves (since they spawn another one with howl) and moas, and max it real fast then join the wvw fun.

All pieces are Berserker’s (Power/Prec/Crit Dmg), super squishy so I try to hang towards the rear of the fights… which doesn’t make me feel very warrior-like, lol.
Dear Vane,
I was enjoying your video last week and thought that I will return for the detail after I made my 100% map completion. However, the video link which was working perfectly last week is NOT working anymore. Would you please take a look on that?
Also, it would be really nice if you are willing to type out the build trait line for reference. I have been trying to open the build link with my office desktop, home desktop and even may stupid laptop but its not working properly. A very brief description with the trait number will do. PLEASE
Appreciated.
10 – V
30 – III, V, VII
0
0
30 – VI, X, XI
I went ahead and updated the link, so hopefully that works for you. I’m probably going to tweak the sigil and utility sligtly when i get back from vacation though. Going to get a little more bang if i replace fury signet with On My Mark and that halloween sigil, so should be another 15% increase in damage at night.
Thanks so much Vane, I’m able to watch the video again and thanks again for the trait setting as well.
Happy holiday!
