Pet have crappy movement/targeting to begin with they aren’t even worth using in wvw. You can out easily displace/out move a pet a pet and easily avoid their dmg.

LOL they nerfed rangers only form of burst damage meaning rangers are essentially a dead class in WVW. No damage, No condi removal for mobility or defensive abilities or even boon upkeep. GG Anet. There isn’t any viable ranger spec to play anymore. This class is dead.

While Dolyak stance might tbe the "best" in class for rangers, other classes can easily get protection and stab buff from their skills which does the exact same thing and these are spammables unlike our stances which has a hell of a long CD. To add to injury these buff they get normally have traits associated with them like engineers, necro for example. What do rangers really get compared to the meta out there? Our best in class seems like skills worthy of an NPC world boss.

Untamed with Staff and dagger/dagger or torch for off hand. Untamed has a good amt of defensive skills and staff has overall mobility that can heal and CC. Used with the right pet u get even more skills (unleashed ranger/pet) Makes applying condi easier on ranger but this will haven alot less condi pressure compared to SB condi. Short bow really doesnt do much. It lacks the needed pressure to stack Condi.

Thanks, u just actually described the ranger long bow, useless signet and traps they give us. At least u guys have condi purge on multiple skills. What do rangers have? Bear stance on 30s cool down

I edited in bold so it fits the current meta with most classes

How abt the peg-leg of Wirt as a weapon instead of mace and scepters! kitten! Wrong game 😆

Guildwars 3 come out on mobile with cash shop. Gotta milk the masses!! Once sales drop we move on to Guildwar 4

How about Chakram as a weapon!! Can be used as a mid range weapon with some melee skills as well for close combat. Or a vinewhips with mid range attack with whip lash consecutive attack and mini aoe spin attacks that does physical and confusion and immobile as cc ... What if the dev changed "maces" and instead announce rangers will be getting a unique weapon called "tree barks" as weapons but same skill design as mace as intended... Just a real lack of effort on the devs part really...

Dont need rifle we need a rework that can... Give us mobility while doing Dmg and purging condi /movement debuff with Evade/defensive/boon spams without Sacrificing any of our important traits so that we can actually be decent .... GIVE US BETTER pets mechanic kitten, engineer pets are wayyyyy better and they only need 1 trait tree...ranger need 2 and it isnt even half decent Oh yes and no stupid invisible pixel that can block all our shots...I can be right Infront of the WVW camp supervisor and literally have my shots block by invisible pixels.

Scrappers!!! IYKYK!!

And people still do it and Anet has no way to catch them.

Hated the rush event. 50 man queue taken up by mostly PVE players who arent defending objective isnt fun when you are a WVW player trying to hop around border and EBG to respond to call outs.

For exploiting auto cast sequence using scripts. Fixed it for you.

Yup, stealth isnt OP. Thief who use auto sequence macro scripts are giving's them almost perfect/near impossible combos are OP Now that the elephant is out of the room.............................🤣 They usually die once you figure out their cast sequence and throw them a wild card. Either they panic and start running away to reset skill or get steamrolled. Then against most players just give up after ONE fight/loss, hence they will never truly reach this point

Weapon skill cast sequence. In short Bind X amount of weapon set skills to programmable button on mouse /keyboard using macro scripts to cast in auto sequence. 4 button class if u do that 😀😠

Buy a keyboard with macro programming scripts so u can bind X number of skills in to minimal keys. Bind some offensive, defensive, or boon spam combos. U can find them in meta battle or make your own. Continuously spams these combos buttons till enemies drops dead There ya go, you have mastered wvw/pvp Proceed to forums to talk about skill, strategy and class mechanics to school people who know no better. 🙄 If you lose, always remembers, its Anets fault your class cant run better macro combos compared to other classes. If anyone accused you of cheating, remember, they need to get good and proceed with " talk about skill, strategy and class mechanics"

Blame should be on those players who are not abiding by the rules instead of "broken" class mechanics.

Come on Anet, are we gonna start banning those players who use macro scripts to run their skill combo or not? Alternatively just legitimize macro usages for ALL players like other games do. Smarter that way tbh rather then setting rules which most players dont abide by.

Thnx for pointing that out. maybe it will be a CC spin skill then where it sucks players in like a tornado instead of knock back

Ranger doesn’t have a “spin” melee damage skill yet. So mace off hand will be a spin skill which will totally serve no purpose or add anything to any ranger builds. And yes I have 0 faith in Anet when it comes to ranger.

Apply burn stacks to weapon/skills for torch 4 instead of throwing 😄 Knowing Anet, once players start complaining about burn stacks being too op they will create a ranger balance update where by upon application of burn stacks on weapon/skill, ranger also set themselves ablaze at the same time and takes X amt of burn dmg per second

They did. Edge of the mist had similar elements in certain capture objectives. ETOM way better then WVW One flaw would be that it is the servers with the most population/all round coverage that will "capture" the most areas

The class arent broken, It the people who macro script multiple skill into one specific buttons for combo chains that makes it look/feel broken. If you dont believe just run a bunker build and record the combat log. Skill use base on the log for these players are always near prefect even under constant pressure/dps from enemies. Players who play without macro script do tend to have a slower reaction since their attention spam is split between themselves, the opponent and their surrounding among another things. It get even worse with more complex classes hence legit players who play the same builds will not have the impossible efficiency of scripter that is what is making these class look overpowered. Hence rather then blame Anet, blame the players who are running scripts. .

Alliance will fix nothing. Its a dying population that really needs to be fixed and most new players are being chased away by hackers, exploiters or players who are running scripts that gives them an unfair advantage. This has been covered by one of the gw2 players on youtube. Due to lack of population density, its is also currently fighting the same guilds/players over and over again. Same old boring maps No new content Class builds that are utterly useless. Condi meta accross the board. God bless the upcoming weapons update. Any class that isnt given unlimited condi spam weapons that can invul and have endless mobility = dead. Ignoring the social aspects of the game for WVW players. WVW is boring and gets worse without any social aspect. Other games have pvp aspect/wvw aspect where people can pair in groups to complete them whether it is across server or with people within the server Spies, trolls, alt account that sabotages people efforts So with Alliance u get a slightly better algorithm with the option to join guilds irrespective of server. How will that fix anything?
