Yes. I was able to get out of ruby and into diamond on what is largely considered one of the worst ranger builds possible. The last few pips are the biggest PITA though.

Trick ive noticed is playing in a way that causes you to have as much of an impact as possible. I swapped to a much glassier setup and started winning matches much more often (when from bottom of ruby to diamond in one 6-8 hour stretch…my head hurt like hell afterwords) because the impact I had on individual fights was much higher. This let my skill level have more of an impact on the course of the fight instead of waiting for key moments to try to nail something.

So if your build has a strength or a specific role. Altering it or moving your focus into a direction that is much more direct may help. (like a chronomancer focusing super heavily on the control aspect of the spec instead of just the bunker nature.)

Which ranger build did you play?

Lol, metabattle does not speak for the meta, contrary to popular belief.

Rom’s druid build is amazing and definitely top tier.

What is Rom’s druid build?
