Nice post I played trap build from the game start until now and don’t find much trouble in tPvP or WvW didn’t know why there’s so many weak players here complaining about how weak ranger is- – to my knowledge Ranger is strong if you know how to control and not panic when there’s a fight (1v1 1v2)

That’s the ranger Build On Carrion Emblazoned set.
Food: Rare Veggie Pizza and Master Tuning Crystal (max CD around 2000 + -)
Helping Anet to help players to understand why they think Ranger is Balance in their eye.
First Ranger is not about burst damage <<< No Burst Damage >>> at lvl 80 with my build you will see 300 damage of SB bow which is low but who cares i don’t fire my bow that much, so no matter how much they nurf SB speed its OK to me (for me i really don’t feel slow in firing SB with QZ don’t know why there’s so many players complaining its kitten slow…) Even if its Fast could you shot 16hit on a player with QZ on? Will they stand dancing on the sport by taking 16hit?
Its all about how you control your Ranger
To kill Thief EQ pet Wolf (Fear)
First thing to do NEVER RUN/PANIC
Lay Spike trap in front and poison back dodge when you see him within 900 range and about to use shadowstep and always stay within poison trap if possible and use f2(fear) if you see him healing in invisible. And always place trap non-stop.
with 23k HP they wont kill you in 3-4hit Use Dodge/Quick shot wisely and when they are down RUN Near him fast and F4(for QZ 2sec) END HIM
Playing Condition Ranger = if you Drag the fight for 30 second + its your win so within 30sec use your Dodge/Heal/Quick shot wisely^^
For those that’s playing condition damage all the best bro^^
For those that complain About Weak Ranger/SB I recommend you to play Other Build and stop posting topic about Ranger is weak or imbalance

Yea in WvW Orb of power is not working for Condition damage (desolation server) its almost been a month and only 1 user post this @@ guess not much condition user out there xD
(not sure its server problem or all server is having this issue cause only 1 post on this lol)
Basic condition damage 1470 full set in PvE
lvl 80 ranger tested many builds and i found out condition damage is just amazing, it works in sPvP, PvE, WvW.
one thing you need to remember ranger does not deal burst damage so don’t expect to see 10k damage pop up^^ what you expect are 200 damage per cross fire at lvl80 LOL so lets forget about auto attacks and i’ll go into traps
Why traps they look weak http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Spike_Trap with 638 damage on the page is it even worth looking into it? Well it does^^
Rune and Skills:
First you need Marksmanship 10points not FOR DAMAGE ITS FOR 10% longer Condition Damage Duration!! And with Rune of the Afflicted (+% bleeding/poison duration) and with Sigil of Superior Agony (10% bleeding duration) you got a total of 35% in bleed and 25% in poison
so here’s how much damage traps will deal xD * Trap Potency is a must *
Spike Trap 3stack of bleed for 5 sec (with 35% extra duration its 6.75sec) with Trap Potency : Conditions caused by traps last twice as long and traps recharge 20% faster. meaning 6.75sec x2 = 13.5sec so 13.5sec x3 stack of bleed with 115 damage per second you deal 13×3×115=4485 condition damage in 13sec
Flame Trap : Burning: 1 s 3 second duration
6second x 690 burning damage = 4140 damage in 6sec
Viper’s Nest : Poison: 3 s per pulse (there’s 3 pulse)
18sec with 25%extra = 22.5sec x 225 damage = 4950 damage in 22sec
Pet : Black bear F2 Enfeebling Roar : Roar fiercely, weakening nearby foes. —- here’s what GOOD weakening —→ Endurance regeneration decreased by 50%; 50% of Non Critical hits are glancing blows (50% damage); stacks duration. for 10sec<< 10sec Range: 600
In PvE build as mine killing 1 or 6 are the same so lure as many as u can find and just throw traps and running round and round xD
In its the same in dungeons^^ with this build you might be consider to be invite into a party dungeons^^ if you are into power/precision/crit. damage well all the best to those all^^
Meaning if i have a set of Rune of the Afflicted in sPvP and the same set of Rune of the Afflicted in PvE/WvW it will show 12/6 … ._." is it made to be this way or is it bugged? which make me wow at first sight when i was in PvE i just bought 1 Rune of the Afflicted and i had already 6/6 effect already^^ but then i realize it was a stack from sPvP…
Rune of the Afflicted mainly for the +15% bleed duration/poison on traps with Sigil of Superior Agony +10% bleed which on PvE dungeon are the best.
e.g Spike Trap 5sec x2 +25% = 12.5sec x3 (per stack per Pulses but it bug at only one._.") x 115damage = 4140 damage pure@@? same with fire/ poison traps imba- – oh what if u add some Marksmanship(Condition Duration +1%) into it^^ but u likey wont have enough points xD
your weapon are the same as me so combo are short bow on hand place 3 traps on boss then skill 1 4 2 change fire torch 5 2 4, 3 trap change bow and so on
2 on main hand : Sigil of Superior Agony – Bleeds you apply last 10% longer.
1 on off hand : Sigil of Superior Geomancy – You bleed nearby foes for 7s when you swap to this weapon while in combat. by the way this sigil is crazy, 595 damage to the heavy golem amd It then triggers a 3 stack bleed for 7s on all targets hit.
remember too add up Marksmanship(Condition Duration +1%) if u learn some xD with some other sigil runes lol
remark ranger doesn’t deal burst damage as other class, ranger deal damage that’s uncountable 20stack bleed with poison burns ON xD
To answer this post question
- Preferred pets, and why
- Preferred weapons, and why
- Preferred stats, and why
first you need to in which Zone
1)sPvP
2)WvW
3)PvE (normal lvling world)
For me i think ranger are mainly Condition damage dealer meaning dragging as long as you can without dying.
If you play Power/precision/crit damage as a lvl80 player(full gear) you can almost quit the game after hitting 300normal 700 crit per hit so sokittenlow damage, and which you will quit if u play warrior burst out 10k on dungeon lvl80 boss(1.5-3k normal) with you hitting 700 max, I bet yourkitten no one will ever invite you for a second round believe me.
End of intro
question 1 sPvP
Rune : Rune of the Afflicted for extra +15% bleed duration/poison (which deals alot)
Weapon : shortbow / axe, torch
Troll Unguent healing ( pro’s only for Condition Damage player which Kite players round and round)
3 traps fire, bleeding, poison
Entangle (for 1-2 second too save yourkitten or Rampage as one (to run faster@@?)
Pets Bear, Tanky for Empathic Bond which you almost clean from condition most of the time. ( If it’s bear i use Black Bear for Roar fiercely, weakening nearby foes. Take note DON’T ever use it to attack which he only deal 500 omg ._." press on f3 key so he’ll just stay close to you and suck out all condition from you and use f2 when melee come by which will weaken them.) If you want damage i suggest snow eagle as they are small and slow AOE so that you can kite them round and round^^.
best build are traps with high condition damage around 1300-1480 with Skirmishing30, Wilderness Survival 20-30, Nature Magic 10(for Nature’s Bounty-Troll Unguent which heals up to 10k with 10sec cd nice^^ just kite them around with traps and the longer u kite the higher% you will win)
Question 2 WvW
Weapon any
skill any
heaing any
nothing basically you hardly get a 1 on 1 all you saw was 10-20 in front or so@@
well WvW is basically who’s has many players on who’s side that’s all LOL full gear or not rushing into a crowd of 20 players targeting range are death wish. (longbow might hit but with AOE damage of 500 you likely wont kill anyone with 20k hp unless they stay put dancing xD)
Question 3 PvE
best bulid are like sPvP with 20 stack of bleeding 115 per second YOU MIGHT BE WANTED into dungeon party xD
Ending
For those that are playing power/precision/Critical Damage dealer as Ranger well good luck lady’s and gentlemen’s ^^ (p.s you should consider changing Job as a warrior xD)
I play a high balance of 3 specs:
1) High Base Damage (Power – 3.4k Attack)
2) High Critical Hit Chance and Damage (Precision – 41% Crit Chance with 22% Crit Damage Increase
3) High Pet Attributes (High attributes in general)With these 3 traits, I utilize a high and fast level of DPS using my longbow to quickly rain down fire upon multiple enemies. One of my strategies (and I have many) include shooting barrage—->hunter’s shot—->rapid fire—-> weap swap to sword/dagger combo and dive in to finish the kill (if the enemy isn’t dead by the time my ranged attacks finish it off)
^That’s not even including my pet and summons. Typically I use Mistfire Wolf along with my other pet as extra dps and a distraction when I’m fighting 1-3 enemies. Along with the DPS that they expunge, they confuse the enemy and they also help to kill quickly ASAP so I can move on to the next foe.
I.E. I get in quick, kill ASAP from various ranges, and support as a high DPS flanker and debuffer (cripple/vulnerability)
Wait, you must have Mistfire Wolf up to fight more than 1 enemy?
41% crit chance and 22% crit damage? Oh I see, you are one of those people who think their build is comprehensive even though they haven’t experienced endgame content.
From your reply, you don’t even know how successful I am in WvWvW. The above that I posted was even my most mundane strategy to use in general situations in WvW. It’s not even my best strategy because I’d like to keep my others a secret, but with rapid fire I’m able to do up to 8k dmg (if crits hit) on an enemy.
Alright, listen, I could use Rampage of One; it has fury, might, stability, and swiftness for both you and your pet, but when it comes down to it, it’s only good for swiftly killing 2 or 3 people at the most within it’s 20sec window.
With Mistfire Wolf, I have the ability to have simultaneously 2 pets at my disposal for 30seconds and after 30seconds I only have one pet. Now consider the damage I do and what my current pet does along with the Mistfire Wolf (which does approx. 2k DMG with its charge and at least 3k with its AoE move. My pet does its fair share of DPS too.
My build is to strike hard, fast, and to make sure I kill up to 4 people within 30 seconds before all I’m not my strongest anymore.
I’m not sure why you seem so dominant over everyone else’s build, but I think with your reply, you’re just all mouth and no talk. My guild can vouch for me as some of them have participated with me in WvW battles as we play for Yak’s Bend server.
Edit: Also, the Mistfire Wolf is a distraction. Think about it.. When people see two pets attacking you and the ranger is DPSing you from 1200 units distance away, what are you going to attack if you’re not ranged? You certainly can’t come up to me and expect to kill me quickly, I have a full exotic set on and I can dodge backwards plus utilize swiftness and my knockback shot.
^That’s if they actually get to me (which most of my foes usually don’t because they run away after I flurry my rapid fire at them). My Mistfire Wolf shouldn’t be underestimated. It has decent defense, a fair amount of HP, high DPS for a pet, and a good source of distraction. It’s a perfect way to at least have an even chance against 2-3 players for at least 30sec considering they are high lvled and well geared as well.
I agree with Pikafan.3792 your build is great only on WvW but not on PvE either is sPvP.
" My build is to strike hard, fast, and to make sure I kill up to 4 people within 30seconds before all I’m not my strongest anymore. " those 4 must be some rabbit armor lol, to kill 4 lvl80 full gear its impossible even if its 1 on 1 with that build of yours you wont win i can vote on that for sure (unless u said you are defending on top of your tower and the guy are free shoot no dodge/evade then well u might kill it)
Found it xD i’m lvl80 full gear 1470 condition damage ranger just curious on traps never used it until sPvP so wanted to try out haha but fail to throw it so i have to up Trapper’s Expertise to use it thx bro^^
(Spike Trap) Set a trap that bleeds and cripples foes. Pulses three times when triggered.
Spike Trap only pulses once, contrary to what the skill description currently states.
after yesterday 1000+ files update this still haven’t been fix…
(Entangle) Wilderness Survival still doesn’t effect it too.
please fix this 2 asap thx ArenaNet for the wonderful game^^
