JP I believe said that the word was fine, but he also said LB was fine nd now our arrows move faster so I wouldn’t get too aught up in what is said by the devs.
5k+ crit #1 longbow
6k+ #2 greatsword
Ummmmmmm….no…I would love to see proof of 5k hits from lb #1
that’s kinda what I just said. I asked if there was a way to test, got a bunch of non answers that did sorta say no and that’s it.
but by that logic i don’t need to test the actual bow aa range cuz when it stops its reached its range. The whole point of testing is to make sure that range is the right range. I’m not saying it isn’t but my question was is there a way to test it not compare it to other skills and hope that they are working as intended since as we have seen not everything in the game does.
So according to you no. None of these things proves the actual units given to us, it is making an assumption of that unit. Granted if the range is the same as another 1200 unit item you can tell they are equal, but there is no way to know its the actual 1200 units then.
And that’s what i’m saying, the autoattack works fine at 1200 but you can still hit after 1200.
Plenty of people thinks 1200 = when you are out of range to hit.
Just curious how you measure you distance. Would be curious to test that myself and I haven’t seen a way in game and I am too lazy to search the interwebs to find the answer. I would greatly appreciate that +)
plz just stop trying to anger the community
Please just accept you’re not as good at ranger as you think you are. Just because -you- can’t kill a thief doesn’t mean others can’t, i sure as hell have no issues dropping thieves, then again i have half the brain to either be super offensive and keep attacking them when they stealth, or run very very far away from them so they can’t open on me.
I love how telling someone to stop saying you should NEVER die to a thief equals I’m a bad player who always dies to thieves. All you self proclaimed pros who keep telling the community that your their god learn from you have the worst habit of assumption. If you can say I NEVER die to a thief you’re jut plain ignorant. The game is at a point people know its flaws. Yes they are over exaggerated and if you look you will find good and bad suggestions for all classes. The point however still stands. You are not the ranger god, you are not a dev, and you are not unbeatable so stop telling people otherwise.
The whole design of the ranger class hard counters thieves…. I don’t know how you consider this trolling. Let me explain:
Let’s say you use a trap build, the second you plant your traps underneath you you are already in a huge positional advantage as the thief WILL die if he decides to attack you while sitting in the conditions, this will force them to back off or for them to harass you with ranged shortbow, but wait your ravens hit like trucks and can kill them in 2-3 hits! Harass them with the raven as you laugh at them while you take the point.Got caught with the typical venom – backstab combo? Pop protect me / lightning reflexes/ RaO – pre combat(if you really want to kill the thief) / the condi signet (if you’re traited/ signet of stone (if you’re traited)/ GS 4 before he uses steal (hilarious) / use the sword evades before he gets the jumps (takes luck / timing but is possible)
Trust me, if you know how and when to react, it’s VERY hard for a burst thief to pull off their burst on you.
Yes that is ways to not die, but does not mean they won’t find ways of killing you as well. Again point still stands that thieves can kill you and can die from you. Instead of spewing some I don’t die nonsense this should have been your original response hence why I call you a troll.
Now to durzlla you’re right you didn’t say that but instead decided to jump in defending the troll spewing that nonsense. Align yourself with their argument get bunched in with it. People exaggerate the rangers weakness and in turn people do the opposite and exaggerate its strengths. You however are to quick to jump on me for simply telling someone to stop trolling you ignore the fact I haven’t actually taken a side one way or the other. I think the best advice one can give you is think before you speak.

still doesn’t change the fact that telling someone to get closer when they are trying to range is poor advice.
^ you do know you can swap weapons and activate a skill instantly right? its not like a warrior is gonna switch to sword wave at you and yell head start go. Telling someone to get closer when they are trying to stay ranged defeats the purpose. Why not just say if you want your arrows to hit use a sword?
Thrice ignore portman. Its been proven an ignorant troll multiple times over.
Sunsports don’t listen to the forum trolls. In all honesty its not a horrible idea. Though it really doesn’t offer any in game help, it is a fun way for the community to come together. Unfortunately until Anet has the game working as envisioned you will have forum trolls constantly bad mouthing any one with something to say.
traps..traps..traps…thats all i can say. short bow, axe/torch on the other. When you master this, you can cause so much damage you will be surprise the condition damage numbers bouncing out of the head of the enemy. And you will be cycling through your weapon and weapon skills in perfect timing. Imagine my bleed is 50+ (this number is bouncing of like crazy), fire trap is 120+, poison trap is 75+, flame torch is 200+ and sometimes including bonfire of another 200+. There are so much numbers boucing off the guys head that i am not even sure which is which to be honest…lol. There is never a split second where the enemy isnt getting any damage from me. And sometimes, i just start on the next enemy because i know my condition damage will kill him.
another words don’t do what you do, do what I do -_-
Do you just want a button that get rid of your pets instantly?
Any action that get rid of pets from rangers’ dps is going against A-net’s ideal ranger.
They want the pet to be available to you all the time and contribute at least 50% of your total damage. Sure, they suck and don’t do as promised right now. So what? Buff them if they need to. Deal more damage, have more survivability , act more responsive upon commands, or whatever. Why don’t people understand that pets are a essential role within rangers’ skill kit?
Cough protect me cough…yeah I sorta like his idea and I sorta don’t. The problem is this is just a for fun idea don’t be a jerk. Also your argument is pretty poor when you consider he is most definitely using the pet not just ditching it. To sum it up get over yourself.
It really depends on what pets you use and what your play style is. I am by no means a pro so take what I say lightly, but I’d personally take at least 5 points out of Marks and put into bm for a pet swap quickness.
Well thankfully for all of us you an now stop telling people l2p and let the devs make the decision on pet movement.
That’s fine I didn’t mean it to be rude. I was just curious if there was a thought process behind it. Sorry if it came across wrong. Never let any one critique you with out knowing your thought process first. What may work better or worse ma not always be the same for everyone and it is easier to give advice if someone knows why you wanted to do what you did.
Hi Anders, I’m totally not here so skip this post and read on…
We made the improvements we had time to test. There are still more ranger improvements but when our time is limited we have to focus on things we know we can fix. Signets and shouts are still on the docket, and I suspect some of each of these will get some love in the next time around. As you can see a lot changed in this build for every profession and we have to test these changes as well.
I do still believe ranger is the profession in most need of improvement after this patch and we will continue to make those improvements. If we could fix everything at one time we would, but the reality is there are a limited # of hours to make changes.
I see a lot of talk about ranger weapons, but I don’t think that is the real problem. I think sword and longbow are both good weapons, which is why the changes take longer. (The problems are deeper, in pets ability to hit moving targets, trait lines with not enough viable choices and skills that are often too specialized to really )compliment the weapon builds. These aren’t things we can change overnight. The change to Greatsword block was in fact a very difficult change, but we made it because we knew it was the right thing to do.
There are >500 skills in this game, 480 traits, and 2 designers working on this. Even then often we are bottle necked by other issues. I’m not going to say we are not working on these things, nor can I say there are things we could have changed but just ran out of time on, but this was a patch that contained ranger improvements and it will not be the last one that does so. Maybe you want more than honesty but that is what I currently have to offer.
Jon
btw I was calm
I am sorry you don’t remember that. Doesn’t make it any less true so again I can refer to your ignorance. Also, I never said it was a crap kitten class thank you for assuming. You are a troll and the worst kind.
As I state in another forum, do not tell people they have to l2p and apply cripple for pets to hit. You look ignorant. John has already stated that pets not hitting moving targets is an issue so you are just being obstinate for the sake of angering the community. If you found a work around to the best out of what you were handed good for you, but that doesn’t make the system any less flawed. When the developer tells you its a problem go with it.
Why are you using traps with no trap specs?
Since some people seem to have issue with pets hitting moving objects, i give you this “The problems are deeper, in pets ability to hit moving targets…”
If you don’t want negative feed back don’t make learn to pay style comments for your video.
my main thoughts on the take root was that the invulnerable mixed with the turrets taking aggro would help pve and maybe dungeon. I just wasn’t sure it would work out that way in practice. I’m guessing not.
I figured that is how it would be. My main idea was the hounds, having 3 doggies could be very useful. shame you can’t use in spvp to test out.
Take Root
Summon Druid Spirit
Hounds of Balthazar
Pain Inverter
I was curious if any one uses these any where and if they really help. I can see where each of these can have a great usage but I’m not sure if the numbers really pan out to make them work. If any one uses any of these on their ranger let me know how useful they were for you. thank you.
idk if any one told you but, rabbits always die in one hit so that is not a 1v1 fight.

if u just feel like killing time eles r fun…on a side note…had a member of my guild tell me to l2p when i said rangers are a horrid class -_-…apparently we can easily dish out 20k dmg or more in 16 seconds and our power builds r mad strong the ranger community just doesn’t know how to manage pets…idk if you all feel the same but idiots like this are the reason we will never be fixed…too many fan boys telling us the game is balanced and we “just don’t understand how gw2 works”…I take it back…keep ur ranger and organize a ranger army in wvw for all servers and laugh when we get mowed to prove a point.
