EpheSOSIayer.6370 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Hi,tested the new ranger elite specialization in the training area. The DPS of it is really awesome, I guess it will be definetly nerfed soon.Here is my best try: Of course, there will be some smart guys who min/max this, so im sure there will be at least 2k more at the qT benchmarks.

leasm.1279 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Any chance to test also a power soulbeast? Mainly interested here in the new synergies with self buffing shouts, such as sic'em and guard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EpheSOSIayer.6370 Posted September 22, 2017 Author Share Posted September 22, 2017 Sorry, I tried it out but I got bad dps values. But this does not mean that power dps is not viable, I just haven't played a similar build before and have no idea how exactly the rotation etc. looks like. Thats why I will not post any try of a power build here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaysin X.6740 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Yeah, condi dps looks pretty great. I think powers greatest strength is the burst potential not necessarily it's dps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piano man.1672 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 This is looking fantastic. Haven't played Ranger at all, but Soulbeast looks interesting. Might give it a shot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xarallei.4279 Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 What gear did you have on? And how about traits? I dropped BM for the SB traitline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wondrouswall.7169 Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 So, what's the DPS now after the patch that fixed Poison Volley from hitting twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bratec.7136 Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 Yes, also interested to see DPS after bug fix with poison volley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It cannot be both. Large Hitbox only works with Power, yes?I'd like to see the DPS with Spotter/FS/SS instead of HB/FT/VN. That's all that would be accepted for a group anyhow.

Aomine.5012 Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 To EpheSOSIayer.6370You're testing it wrong regarding to power build, probably with wrong traits / gears/ rotation.Here's my result.I were abit reluctant to post this because I fear Anet might do something to Sick Em...PS: Trait Marksmanship, BM, Soulbeast.Same set-up as my petless power ranger dps testing.

EpheSOSIayer.6370 Posted September 23, 2017 Author Share Posted September 23, 2017 I'll test the dps again soon, but I'm busy at the moment. As far as I see, the bugfix doesn't decrease the dps significantly. I did some test without shortbow too and the dps was still 33k+ (e.g. dagger/torch only)To be honest, 32k with ALL buffs is not a high value especially with power classes (glyph of empoerment uptime). With realistic buffs I guess this number is under 30k. I usually use less buffs. As you can see in my video, I didn't take the engineer condi buff, because in my raid group noone plays engineer. I hope that power ranger will get spot in raids/fractals but the gap pre pof was just such high, that closing this gap would be already an achievement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We kinda used to crappy traits and skills for damage, thats why people afraid that if get OKish ability it will be nerfed (same as they nerfed Maul).So what do we see on screens? 32k? Condi ranger did 30k pre-PoF.Ele now doing 48k (instead of 37k). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heimskarl Ashfiend.9582 Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 Being able to deal 32k dps is nice and all, but if you are going to have all buffs active, you should really do the testing with Spotter/FS at least since that will be desired and necessary to actually have those buffs in the first place.

Refia Montes.3205 Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 And... how much of a DPS increase would it be if One Wolf Pack + Leader of the Pack was used in a Power Subgroup? Also it might be worth considering the amount of Burst you can put out there. 60k dps in the first 8 seconds is pretty good for bosses with Phases.

I guess my only other curiosity is the DPS difference if merged with a Fanged Iboga and using both its beast moves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F2 is an AoE bleed application. Since only one attack on Lynx merge adds bleeding, I believe that the Bristle is a superior option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xarallei.4279 Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 So it's 4 nightmare/2 trapper? What happens if you stick with krait runes? Just curious because I share my gear with my daredevil and I think that will not change from the krait setup. Wondering which would lose the least...the cranger using krait or the DD using nightmare/trapper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EpheSOSIayer.6370 Posted September 23, 2017 Author Share Posted September 23, 2017 Bristle is 0.5k lower dps, but what you can do ist the following: You can activate before the fight the F2 of the bristleback and then swap to lynx, but this would give you only a little dps increase at the beginning of the fight, like precast sharpening stones.There is a build link in the description of the video, for all of you asking about the exact build.
