Ranger in WvW after balance patch

As a warrior, I still find rangers to be the easiest to kill when roaming.. by a large gap.

Dodge the rapidfire, pop an invuln, use shield + missile reflect trait, etc. then break the range gap and spank away.

Every class will have a counter for it.. and sadly half the rangers out there will go full potato after rapidfire is evaded or blocked

Yeah but you’re not really beating the class. You’re just beating bad players, which seem to be abundant in the ranger class representation. Power Ranger is popular with baddies because it’s so brain dead simple to play.

But I will whole-heartedly agree that bad players seem to make up quite a large abundance of the ranger population.

You may be partially right but I don’t think fully! Don’t get me wrong, I’ve dueled some very good rangers also (actually I just recorded a 5 minute long duel with a fantastic ranger that I’ll post in the near future), but a good mesmer or thief, or guard, or any class for that matter (cheese builds aside) seem to be more of an issue than a good ranger IMO.

That’s not just speaking from me as a warrior either, as a necro and ele that I play as well.

Youll find the most active WvW groups in Tier 1, of course.

I’ve been on TC, YB and I’m now on JQ. JQ has a great WvW presence IMO, and I would recommend it if you’re looking for a new home.

Why you dont like the new change?

Karma trainings is a lot easier now but that was the exact opposite of what we wanted. We wanted defending to become easier than attacking – siege disablers and their recent nerfs are 2 steps in the right direction, PPK is another 2 steps forward. The removal of white swords is like 5 steps back. 2 good changes with 1 mega bad change.

Removing white swords a bad change?

Consider this: What about the players with inadequate computer setups? Think of how much smoother the game is running for them without the GPU-heavy white sword animation on structures. I think we all just need to take a second and put ourselves in their shoes.

Not only did Choo accurately predict the impact of removing white swords on structures, but word on the street is that he’s atleast an 8.6/10 IRL and can bench 3 plates as well.

Love you <3

Hey who voted on the 8.6/10 lol!

<3

That’s just what I heard through the grapevine.. but 8.6/10 according to e-standards is actually very respectable.. I would just run with it !

thread cliffs

- tc winning in PPT
- random FA commander (that many have never even heard of) enters thread with some hardly understandable statements which are laughed at by many
what i have understood from his rants:
- said commander begins speech about how he is jesus, and the only reason TC is winning PPT is because he is “letting them win”
- said commander says the only reason TC is capping anything is because he isn’t online to defend it because he’s on “christmas vacation” (yet posting in thread countless times a day)
- if he was online we would not be able to cap anything.. i quote “until now no1 cand do it ^^”
- somewhere in between MAG/FA both get into SMC and, after a few hours of fighting, we lose it as the ring caps instantly because of a server glitch
- overall hilarity ensues
