Guild Wars 2

If you really want to play that combination, try this:

the axe in the offhand adds the needed damage you are missing with the sword in the mainhand.
Plus the constant bleeding can work pretty good.

Not always so negative against other ideas of builds xD

Same here, cant remember to have so many Problems to keep my pet alive in sPvP even in a 1 vs 1 Situation.

I think something scales wrong with NPC´s, first the Thing with the damage (not only Rangerpets did more,Svanir Lord, Chieftain) i hope Anet has a look on it.

Then maybe it is the same like that, what happend to the Rangerpets. Maybe they will fix it.

I agree, even that it was not mentioned in the notes, it is a good Change like Liewec wrote.

Despite that, the Lord can still be made solo with the Ranger. Dont know if other classes can still do so.

Somebody else noticed that the Lord and his Soldiers hit very hard after the patch?! Same for Svanir and the Chieftain.

I didn´t read something like that in the Patchnotes but they feel more strong.

I hope it was not because of me, being tired yesterday evening but ist possible.
