Guild Wars 2

we need a real ranged weapon not a weapon with 4 glyhps and 1 auto attack skill , i wish gs was ranged like mesmer some sort of beam that add conditions or a cloud of poison

few hours ago in wvw squad some player was kicking all druids out of squad saying they need better ranged and more armored classes in squad and druids are usless i said druid discrimination in team chat

in wvw doesnt matter druid or ranger your not welcome , ranger is bad in wvw and druids get kicked out of squads because some ppl want a "real ranged class " or "more " armored class " i love my ranger i wanne do wvw with him but no one even helps me if i get ganked i get the message go play somthing else then

then go duel somwhere else like sanctum the place is empty no one wil kill you there -

you guys laughing but not everyone wants to fight its way easier to get reward track and way faster and you can even make new friends not everyone is so good at pvp

its annoying somtimes 5 times on a day these gold sellers i feel like reporting them doesnt help anything just like world of warcraft ppl report them but they keep coming gold sellers

for pve axe is great using a mm build axe/focus gs , and a staff in my bag because staff can Always come in handy saved my life few times

i wish there werent that many projectile counters, in the new zones to theres these mobs who use a projectile shield

They just need to give brutish seals like 3-4 sec of unblockble attacks after signets activation.

even in wvw most time my projectiles get shoot back at me ,

clones are to squishy to a big aoe and there gone

i wish there werent that many projectile counters, in the new zones to theres these mobs who use a projectile shield

i love gs but i hate the target skills that remove boons its not like enemy stands stil in wvw

im playing with my ranger again in wvw and im loving it, i dont care what ppl say i enjoy playing with him ! :p and with ranger i can atleast hit anything while my mesmer feels so weak like i hit nothing

mesmer lose dps with clone shatter but if we dont shatter we lose dps to we need more phantasm skills

mesmer is good for 1 thing in wvw atm and thats support sharing boons seems to be the only option now

noticed it to few weeks ago was on my mesmer in wvw and i was attacking a camp i feel like took forever to kill that 1 vet

In zergs, rangers are bad. No proper aoe, best burst is easily reflectable and there are millions of reflects in the game. For heal staff 1 has to change. It is a good weapon but auto sucks.

In roaming, in my opinion, with the latest changes ranger/druid will become less powerful. Especially with the boon stealing from thief and warrior. Everyone says ranger has good mobility but i think it has good speed. Pure running speed. Rangers do not have a teleport skill that can be used to jump on the stairs, walls, etc. Still it is way too fast

For me problem is with ranger weapons and utility skills. Staff 1, shortbow, longbow, signets… these all need reworks for ranger to work better. (I am not including pets, I have given up that dream long ago)

But again, if you can kite well, you can easily kill many professions, but not all of them.

noticed it to my Arrow got deflected times i was fighting a mesmer who was attack a team mate and my Arrows did nothing he had a projectile bubble

Yeah there is a lot of projectile hate in wvw. It helps to spend a little time on each class so you learn the visual/audio cues and the cool downs for these skills. That way you can try to save your weapon swap for these moments.

Most of those skills won’t affect our melee weapons and our staff auto isn’t a projectile so it goes right through a lot of it.

i find druid staff skills lack any condition these beam do dmg and thats all no bleeding or weakness or anything

What kind of build are you running? If you really want to you can add condi’s through traits and sigils.

not playing ranger anymore atm tried lot of build tried condition but hated shortbow range

Even if barrage hit harder it would be suicide to use it against a zerg because of retal. Ranger will never be useful in a zerg until they give retal an internal cooldown/make it based on a percentage of received damage.

Ranger is still a top tier roamer though. Some of the best mobility in game, pets make it super easy to solo camps, towers, even keeps if you have enough time, and they are great 1v1 fighters when you aren’t trying to contest a point.

this ! thats a reason i love ranger in wvw taking camps letting pet tank enemy mobs while my pet is killing i can check my suroundings for enemies

its a shame i love my ranger im a big fan of archer classes but thx for replies everyones

It’s a useless class for zergs/large scale, since ranger aoe and utility (since spirits die quick there) is trash.

People only play druids for roaming/duels, which do nothing of significant value for the mist war score.

i find ranger needs a new ranged power weapon , only ranged power weapon is longbow , axe is condition shortbow is condition , i stil got a mesmer gues i play with her for wvw i hope in the future ranger gets more buffed

had ppl say ranger sucks in wvw go reroll play somthing else even ele is better they said ….
