Copy the rotation down to a T, learn how to adapt your utility skills to different situations and that’s basically all you have to know. (besides having gear)

Im curious too’ should we change to Druid for endgame content like Raiding or WvW ? or we can go Ranger ( Condi Ranger build with Viper armor set )

For WvW, either is a good option, though you will likely want celestial gear there just for survivability.

For Raiding, Druid, but that’s vague. There’s more than one way to play it. Admittedly, if you are going for the healbot which is what people will likely expect, your gear will be a mix of Ministrel, Cleric, and Magi (depending on who’s tanking). You will be more support and healing with that build, but that’s what druids look like in raids.

Fractals, either will be welcome, even at higher levels. Same for dungeons, though there the condi ranger will be the better choice, as not as much healing is needed unless you have a bad group.

HoT, Silverwastes, etc. Go with whatever you enjoy and feel comfortable and effective at playing.

Tbh, with the exception of Raids, that advice holds true just about everywhere. You could go and play a meta build, but if you suck at it and aren’t comfortable, what’s the point?

Zerker Build Advice Please!

Metabattle is the sort of 98th percentile of good builds. It’s rarely the absolute perfect up to date build that the best players in each game mode are innovating with, but it’s the one that is tested by the community and overwhelming accepted as excellent.

The builds posted on these forums; be cautious of. Some of them very very rarely are going to be the next big thing, many are utterly useless, and most are decent and slightly subpar but are posted because we get bored playing the same things over and over.

TLDR: Use metabattle until you are bored or have a thorough understanding of the game, or if you’re brand new, kitten it and do whatever you want while you learn the game.
