Warrior = Usain Bolt
Thief = Hollow Man
Mesmer = Binary Fission + Hollow Man
Ranger =??All other classes have something to defend themselves and the only thing I had was the Ranger evade …. 8s can even be good in sPvP but is very WvWvW this nerf is the same as taking 1 clone of the Mesmer limit the invisibility of Thief.
What is your logic? Being Longbow damage is less at close range?? You need some lessons of physics …
You will never tanking as a Warrior or Guardian and focus on your damage will be hard as ridiculous.
ANet is destroying the Ranger and increasingly it becomes useless in WvWvW.
Gonna rain on your parade here.
With a BM bunker build, you can easily without issues or problems out-tank and destroy any and all warriors you face in a 1v1. And if you fail to do so, it is your own fault.
Let me elaborate;
If you spec 0/0/10/30/30 you get vigor on heal, 25% passive endurance regen, 35% increased chance for spirit proc, spirits unbound and natures voice, in addition to this you get -20% pet F2 CD, Vigor on Pet Swap and Natural Healing (passive heal 125/3sec for player, 125/sec for pet).
If you do like me, and run with Signet of the Wild, Signet of Renewal and Guard, you can get more condition cleanses then you need, add in the new healing spirit and you get so much healing power and regen that whatever pet you choose should not die even if the pet get focused by the warrior/guard. If you also happen to run with birds or cats, your DPS will be tremendously higher then ANY warrior or guard. As those kitten birds can easily do 2x 1200 damage on their AA. In addition to providing a blind-on-demand.
If you use Sword + Dagger and Shortbow with a Apoth build, and use +40% condi duration food, you can have 100% uptime of poison, which means they get their healing nerfed by 33%. And if your warrior run the dreaded regen build that has up to 900hp/sec healing, you literally nerf that down to 600 by using poison alone. Now, given that any bunker build can easily do 3-400 direct damage + condition damage, and pets do loads of damage ontop of this, you realize that a warrior or guard in tank spec does not hold a candle to a ranger.a bunker ranger is way more OP then any other bunker build short of ele bunker.
could please elaborate further?
i would like to know how you plan to get rid of all those conditions?
it looks a little tricky for me, you use the soldier runes to get rid of 1 condition every 12s, 1 condition every 10s from sigil… Thats more then enough? Yeah sure every 60s you get rid of all conditions.
w/o EB .. makes me really wonder…
you outlast that 600 regen with 128 regen and those procs you get…wont you miss troll urgent or is that new spirit that awesome? Which traits do you pick? Since you use 1 shout, do you pick natures voice or do you pick spirits unbound? Dunno, if last one makes sense or even first one..
dunno, i might miss something…
thanks it advance…i would like to play my ranger again but i just cant see how one could play w/o EB.
edit: ups, forgot they moved the spirits unbound to lower tier, sorry!
