Proposal overview
Some skills to change, upgrade the general utility of rangers in dungeons or fractals
Goal of proposal
Right now, rangers and some other professions are simply not needed in groups in pve. By changing some little things on traits and skills, rangers can be upgrade in their way to interact with others members of a team in dungeons.
Proposal functionnality
Actually in a team, rangers can bring 150 precision with a trait and 10%dmg with a spirit. They also can place one water field and summon the nature spirit to support a little. The general dmg or support of the rangers are consequently less effectives than other professions. By adding more boons or interactions with other members of the team, they can compensate those problems.
-Per example, add more blasts finisher to this class, in a weapon or utility (like on warhorn which was really cool)
-More fields combos can be also interesting, on spirits or with pets
-Traits that increase rangers dmg can be shared by the group (10% when stamina max per exemple) because for now it just seems to me that rangers are doing their dmg on their own and this encourage ranger as solo more than group up
For support, one of the good aspect of rangers for now is that they can run berseker gears without loosing support of spirit or healing spring. I think it is good to keep that up and even add or upgrade support skills to reintegrate rangers in dungeons, like a druidic way (i know im not giving any clear skills in detail, others have surely done it for me before)
For a more rpg way and general design of rangers, i think we lost the general view of the class as a discret and deadly adventurer. More stealth needed on the ranger, like activate signet of the hunt give three sec stealth or whatever, but actually enginneers can stealth more than rangers and i dont think it is normal for this wood hunter.
Thank you allie if you read this post fully and im sure we ll see good changements on this wonderful class !
