Purge all rangers , only good ranger is a dead one .
Needs to stun up to 3 peeps, and reduce cd to 3 secs, will be balanced real nice.

Hi, this build will be superior i think.
Hi,
@VaAnSs.1567: congrats on that new video. The build is strong and you play it well, but I think I prefer your berserker videos nonetheless (more spectacular in my view). Thanks for sharing, and keep up the good work!
been running this build as of late , eating people like no tomorrow enjoy, you can swap mel runes for hoelbrak for more dps which is nice.
Yes, this is the kind of build approach that I like, although it’s a bit too tanky for my taste. If you do not mind, a few remarks below.
Given that you wear a Knight armor rather a Berserker one, you end up being tanky enough in my opinion, so I’d definitely exchange the Melandru runes for the Hoelbrak runes, as you have suggested, all the more the longbow can help you stack might (LB #3 in Combustive Shot).
I see that you have selected Last Chance. It is a very nice trait, but I think that I’d still go for a x/x/6/x/6 standard PvP variation and get Burst Mastery instead, since both bursts of your weapon sets are interesting (you’d also squeeze more value from Cleansing Ire that way). To compensate for the loss of critical chance, I’d either equip a sigil of Intelligence or a sigil of Accuracy on the main hand Axe. I’d also consider exchanging the sigil of Air for a sigil of Fire, as you’re likely to skirmish. If you still want Quickness, then the sigil of Rage can also be a good option.
A more mobile version could substitute the main hand Axe with a main hand Sword. You would still get a leap finisher and an eviscerate-like burst with sword #3, and would grab an interesting immobilization with sword #1 (useful as a preparation for either Sword #3 or Axe #5). The x/x/6/x/6 trait distribution would work the same, although I think that your 0/6/5/0/3 trait distribution would also be nice with that set up (but maybe testing Dual Wield Agility there).
Offhand Axe. Sounds good.
In PvP, the Axe #5 does 50% more damage than in PvE or WvW. Considering the damage only, it’s not unusual to hit above 10k on a single target (my best being around 13k against an elem, IIRC), although one still has to prepare the skill, using both stability and cripple. Running the natural Axe/Axe or Sword/Axe sets provides you with plenty of cripple, so the combination is not hard to pull.
Aside from this, Axe #5 hits 15 times and cleaves. In this build, it works nicely, because:
- It can itself be used as a preparation for Eviscerate. Not only will it help build adrenaline quite fast, but it will also reduce the defense options of the opponent, who might consume dodges or teleports to mitigate the damage. Guardians, in particular, will find themselves quite vulnerable to it, because of the Signet of Might.
- As a whirl finisher, it can significantly affect the area, when fighting with teammates: cleansing with light fields, blinding with smoke fields, and so on. Last but not least, since you run the long bow, you get an additional self-combo with Combustive Shot.
Axe #4 is less shiny, yet not bad at all. Its damage is decent, and more importantly it strikes twice, increasing the chance for a sigil to proc. The fury it provides directly contributes to the damage inflicted by a following Axe #5 as well.
Regards.
Good sound advice there,
things i love about the quickness is when u whirl and then eviscerate they dont see it coming, and the quickness stomps are great,
i started running dual axe because i was jelly about the giant on black desert dual axe play, wish we had a gap closer on axe 4 would be epic,
wish we would have grab skills on warrior lol.
Yep total cheese condi build from wvw, gg pvp,

Neither This Thread is about PvP and medi guards nor I talked about Mesmers timewarp.
I talk about guardians timewarp that he has to cast on his own which is ushually used in Speedruns. And during the casttime he is dealing litteraly 0 dps.[/quote]
When did guards get a time warp ?.
