Guild Wars 2

Hey Guys!
Well i’ve stopped playing Gw2 for like 4 months. And now i fell i lil bit Lost
Can’t someone update me on Ranger Buids and Stuff. I feel like my old Trapper is not doing any effect. Can somone recommend something?

I looking for a Hard Dps Output or Hardcore Survival

So i’m really sad with anet!
I just complete story mode on my main character. I strugled alot to do it and i was expecting some really cool reward andistead i got only masterwork items and a 40 silver skin -_-
Thanks Anet. Once Again u troll more than Larry.

pardon for my bad english

Hello.
I joined Guild wars when it was released. Play it every single day and only have one char. Alltough this game have so many good classes i found myself bended over the ranger table
ITs a very good class with some good features. Like in all the games have advantages against some other classes and disvantages against some others. I baraly have much to complain about rangers. On my point of view there are only 2 changes that would make rangers way more enjoyble:

1st Rangers Stats afect Pets Stats.
Just Imagine how good that would be? I mean ofc the pets are allready good (Exception of the ones that got nerfed) but they still good companios, now imagine if they could get stronger. Every Class have something unique and our is the pet so why not give us the amazing hability? Im jsut sharing an Idea. Ikn how that would impact and cause some changes on the game but right now thats what a ranger needs.

2nd Remove Shouts and add something usefull.

I mean c’mon. I dont know who came up with the shouts on a ranger but i personally think that those skills are used by no one on this game (maybe 2% of the rangers).
Excluding “Search and REscue” That can be usefull on groups i dont see any other usefull shout on ranger. Arena Net could come up with something better than that. I’m really disapoited with that part.

Excluding that and some other minors that i wont mention. I Still enjoy playing ranger.
So if our cry for help would be listened one day, we would all rangers be grateful

*Sorry for Typos. Freaking Cold cant even write well and too lazy to correct :P

Hey There, I Just want to ask if anyone else got this strange game Glitch that makes the balls part on CoF P1 invisible?
Since the Tequal Update i cant see them when i do the Dungeon i only see level 75 health bars and shadows.

Hey Guys. Today im goin to share the “Machine Gun Ranger Build”.
The Build was Created by Psycho Power Ranger, an Old Gw2 Player. He Developed this build before quickness Nerf, it was a Blast! Huge sucess, but when the nerf came, less ppl where using it. I think the 50% just dont make it like the 100% used to. But… I can tell you, the build still works with every class on PvP
Thats Right! Deal lots of damage, Kill fast, bleed ur oponent so hard that there will not be enough “Shake it off” to remove it (Yea i kinda have Warriors).
This Build target to the Zerkers and Light Classes. Its rlly Hard agaist tankers groups, but 1vs1 u can make it (10% Luck, 90% skill). With the Trait “Spotter” Change, and The Stealth, the build just became more Radical :P
I personally recomend have someone on ur back when fightin Thiefs or High Tankers Guardians cos, the weak point of this build is that u only have one Chance cos of Cool Down. So its everything or Nothing (like almost all the Zerker Builds). But hey, If you like to be called “noob”, “Cheater”, “So Pro”… This is the build for it

I did some changes, cos the original version as the owner said wasnt completed. So i changed this and added that, and… Voulá! Machine Gun Ranger
Im still working on the YouTube videos but i promisse that they gonna be a blast :P

Heres the link for the Updated build: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fMAQJATVjEVZ2FWSWs2Bi1DBt/B1KwJ2DDlIGlyGSxaQA-TwAg0CnIoSRljKDVSqsUNqYVxpiXFA

Thank you for answers… i think hunter’s comunity is the most polite and quick to answer

i just tried some builds in hearth of the mists… and i can say:
1) condition damage build… will be really strong (maybe better than necro’s)
2) i don’t like to play for conditions ( XD ) but maybe that would be my secondary set
3) Long Bow is really… wow… strong (stealth… massive vulnerability… and 5k+ with LB 2#) and of course i love “barrage” <3
4) ranger pet is stronger than i remembered… maybe, is the a build based on pet? (i don’t really like to depend from my pet… but would be a nice one)

so i tried some builds and the my favourite was the one based on Long Bow/Short Bow … the problem is that i didn’t find a good LB/SB build on internet and I had to create it alone… not sure if it was that good

here is a prototype of the build:
http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fMAQJATVnAVkFcgFKWgaZgYpYP9pzIT9nzg/MC-j0yAYrARigoCAJPosHRGbRtIasqFMVJguMpqzI7NKiWNA-w

ps: i really like those 1500 toughness togheter with 17.4k hp

can you help me to complete the build? or maybe, can you link an already optimized LB/SB build?

thank you

You devloped a very interessant Build. I rlly like how you managed to balance Output Damage and Toughness with Crit Damage, The Crit Chance still Low Tough. But hey Nice Work, I may even Change somethings and use it. Its a rlly nice Build to use Lb/Gs Weapons. Good Job Man.

I could link my build (also devloped after seen many builds) but u said you dont like depending on Condition Damage.

But hey if your Willing to check it here it is:

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/ranger/New-PvE-Build-Kill-Master-Ranger/first#post2461914

I There Guys, So i Created This Build for WvW and PvP. Basically is for Suppport and Tank. Do You Think is Okay? Should i change anything?

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fIEQJASTjgOBwtPGPMxBE0DvQD3CThfI9gMCjyA-jgxAkohol9KiGbZrIas6FMdJRUtHvIa1A-e

So We all agree that the new update came with some good stuff for Ranger. Like Stealth and The Blast Finisher.

I was wonderind… So Now That Longbow got super improved the best combo imo would be:

Longbow/Sword+Horn
Traps
Condition Damage + Toughness + (Precisino or Power up to the user) Sets.

What You guys Think?

Tbh i only was amazed by the Critical Damage 111% Bonus.

I belive Durzlla never wanted to compare them or say one is better than other. It all depends on the situation and what you want from u char.

I also agree that berserker is more suitable for Direct Damage and Burst. But this build doesnt reflect that.

This Build was made for players like me that dont like melee that much, and still wanna kill fast, and also dont wanna die when Mobs atack in group. The point is Rampager with Ranged Weapons is a very good combination. The objective is not DPH (damage per hit) put DPS or DOT (Damage per second or damage over time). Throw traps, if 1 mob only use Short Bow, If Group Use Axe. Let the Conditions do the Job. This Build is about a combo of Conditions + Average Hits.

Simple as that

Thanks for posting this build, Wiseman. It may not be 100% new but what build is …..

Keep it up : )

Ty Mate I Apriciate it.

This build wants to do dps. A berserker/sword build would do more dps. Therefore Zerkersword > Shortbow.

What has this to do with big numbers?

Actually, Rampager would do more DPS, the zerker build just gets bigger numbers and bigger burst.

Just to get this straight: A sb-rampager ranger has more dps than a zerker-sword ranger?

If we are going for sustained Damage per second? Yes, they do, if you’re going for “Who can blow up the fastest!” which is what the current “meta” is, aka Burst as fast as possible, then you’d want zerker.

Ur 100% Right. This Build is not made for burst but for damage over time. Its not ur hits that will damage its the conditions. The hits will only complete the combination. I would say that this build is more AoE than ST.

And also im sorry i mistaked the Vipers Nest With The Spike Trap, u were right when said to use Vipers Nest. Thanks for the alert i just noticed it.

This build isn’t new.

Yea It is, As i said it was isired on other Builds but there are some diferences.

No it really is not. I use to run almost this exact build with 1 trait difference. I didn’t use spotter.

I know everyone wants to think they came up with something new and exciting, but This build is neither new or exciting. I have actually seen this build posted several times since I have been playing.

20/30/20… Is not new. The traits you took in this build are not new. The weapon set you use is not new. Neither is using Rampage crit/condi gear.

The name is new though…

I am all for coming up with idea’s but please don’t take a Big Mac put it in a new box, and call it a Big Bob expecting that people will think you really came up with something new.

I (and many many others on these forums) have run about every combo you can think of just to see what happens. I have run spirit, crit/condi, power/crit, power/tough, tough/condi, bunker, and even rolled BM for about 5 min before I had to run to the bathroom and vomit… I just felt ill and dirty for rolling that build for even those 5 min. Mostly because it requires next to 0 skill to play.

Again Its really good to see people posting builds, but there is nothing, and I mean nothing original about this build.

Well as i said i picked many builds i used to run and combined them, The fact that the build is 20/30/20/0/0 doessnt mean that is equal to the others. Gear, Skills, Pets, gameplay and many other things… All that afect a Build. i said its new cos there are some facts and things that i never saw on forum or anywhere else. Maybe Call it New was a lil bit Rampage or risky but it has nothing to do with other ones. So dont get too much afected cos it was called new build, cos technically it is.

EN: I didnt post it to get the meriths, i just shared something new i came up with :P

If you want to run a condi build thats fine but i see no reason to run Rampager when you could run zerk and do more damage while still being as glassy, now if you said Rampagers or carrion vs Zerk because you don’t want glass thats different.

Berserker as you said is more suitable for melee or Short Bow. Im not looking for Dph im looking for Dps. This Build is based on “Dont get to close to kill fast”. The Condition on Ramager Boost The Damage ull Deal over Time and that will Ensure the Fact that you dont have to melee and risk to get hitted. You can Call it Glassy but i say “its not that much” cos you can still take some hits with this and escape. I’ve soloed Champs, and Vets on World and been doin great on Fracts. With this build u can Run around while ur enemies lose their Hp Over Time (rlly fast). basically u avoid risks.

You could just run SB and do more damage still than conditions.

Yea but then you would rely only on DPH and you dont want that cos with this build the objective is kill as many as possible asap. And also it Ads AoE to ur Ranger. Something that RAnger still lack on imo.

hyjaxxx.1584:

Ive seen quite a few people run like this for pve. Seems to be the go to for rangers who get the idea to do both condi and DD.

As a side note, The build name made me giggle. it reminded me of when your a kid and you make a lil club with your friends and youre like…“Yeah!, we will be the Super Ultra mega killers!” haha

I named it that way cos they rlly die fast
But The Name it is a lil bit funny I couldnt come with anything else :P

Durzlla.6295:

Yeah Rampagers on a ranger allows it to be 100% range with little to no downside, always fun, for what ever reason I had though you had a Sword instead of an axe and was a little confused lol.

You may also consider taking viper nest instead of flame trap so you have more reliable poison, that being said flame trap certainly isn’t a -bad- option since its a field and such a low CD

Sword would be good, but it wuold put you on bad situations sometimes. I rather axe cos its ranged, and since we want range Axe suits well, also Axe atack 3 enemies per hit so… Awesome when ur facing many of them :P

Fire, Poison and Chill Traps. Why? Fire for Dps, Poison for Dps also and Life Take over Boost, Chillto make them Slow and Reduce healing. Its more like a Combo

Durzlla.6295:

Huh, interesting build, you’ll definitely be made of glass though.

Just curious, are you using Rampagers weapons as well? Or something else? Also, why Bear + Drake? Any reasoning behind it or no?

Also, have you though about using Nightmare Runes instead of adventurer? Or TU instead of spring?

The Build is Basedon Dps. I could go Toughness instead of precision but that would ruin the Crit chance, and what we want here is the Crit Chance so youll Bleed’em alot (on this build Bleed is like ur Main Condition).

Yes there is a reason why i use Drake and Bear. Its cos Bear is an awesome tanker and a good support pet thanks to his healing skills. Drake, have huge burst Damage, Put Burn Condition and Can Take Some Hits so he wont die Fast like a Wolf pet. Hes like ur Wolf but with more Toughness and Vitality.

About the Runes. well i dodge alot so i need the Endurance Boost. But U can Use any Condition Damage Rune. (I just noticed that i didnt Selected the weapon type, so the Crit Chance now is up to 76%).

Also notice that with the Condition Stack Sigils ur Cnd Dmg will Raise to 1,5K That will be like So much Dps even if you dont atack. Just Throw traps and w8 4 it.

Hi Guys. Well This is a New Build that i devloped, i basicaly combined some builds i have tried and created this awesome Condition Damage and High Dps Build. Its all about Keep atacking n’ wait for the Conditions to do the Job. With This build ull deal lots of Damage without even Atacking much. Ill post a Video on Youtube displaying the Gameplay Style and some tips. By now ill leave the link for the build. Also, Its only 90% Completed but i decided to share it so maybe we can work on it
There are somethings that i cant choose between so i picked what i think it was better.
Suggestions are Welcome (from Experienced players ofc)

Aspects:

• Usefull against Agroo’s
• Deal High Dps
• Fast Kill Build
