I have a few questions regarding the build. First of all I wanna say I’ve been playing since headstart and never had a condi build on any character before, so these might be noob questions.
First, for the pets, I run with the Bristleback as its a solid long range pet with condi built in, I feel the bleed it provides synergize well with this setup, I love the Lynx, but it dies in 2 hits to anything and doesnt keep aggro away from me, am I doing soemthing wrong? Most of my pets(even the Lyinx itself) were able to tank for me on my previous, good ol’ regular power build. I tried the Murrelow and it is able to keep aggro for me and provide poison fields. Also, as the Murrelow can keep aggro its a million times easier to actually get bleeds from behind/side with Crossfire. I feel the Wyvern is so bad, I dont even want to use it for fire field.
Another question, I have the exact same setup, cept for the ascended Shortbow, rest is the same as in the link. I can reach 2 ticks of around 14K bleed, but it instantly drops down to 2-4k constant(with higher bleeds when I use the trap/elite/Lynx F2 again). Is that normal? it seems pretty low(again Im a condi noob, so it may just be me not used to it)
For the utilities, I HATE Lightning Reflexes, that skill has gotten me killed more times than its actually helped, as I always en up falling off clifs, or backdodging to even more mobs. I traded that for Glyph of Equalty, as it synergises with Ancient Seed, it hits 5 tagets, dazes them>ancient seed for root/bleeds AND it breaks stuns for me, isnt it like loads better than LR?
As for Sharpening Stone, I feel its cooldown is way too long to even be usefull(as dmg or condi removal) wouldnt the Sun Spirit work better? as it applies burning, and you can resummon every 20 secs?
Im really enjoying this build so far, I really wanted to be able to do fracts/dungeons with my ranger, and with this build I feel stong! Also, never knew Husks died SO fast to condi~
