  1. For roaming in WvW, I am using almost the same build as the one in sPVP. http://en.gw2skills.net/editor/?POgAENlZwWZssQmLOeXrR1Sk+cA-zVIYRUxfIZqA6VK0yIQDHgA2DPA-w I am using Jacaranda instead of River Drake, because usually I am playing with my friends (a group of 4 or 5) and we are fighting vs groups of 4-5. And Jacaranda atm is the pet with the highest damage, even that damage is for static target or for a small area. Most of the fights in roaming with group vs group are pretty close/melee combat, and Jacaranda is doing a great job in this kind of fight. Another bonus is when an enemy is downed, to be sure that he will not be revive, is to strike with Jacaranda on him. Many times at least 2 enemies who tried to ress the downed one, fall too, due to the huge damage of Call Lightning.
  2. @Lothorien.8720 I agree with @Nephalem.8921. In sPVP, Untamed is good and surpasses Soulbeast. But in Roaming, the things are a little bit different. I think in WvW, Soulbeast is still better because he has more tools to disengage. More tools to cleanse condi. And all of these because Soulbeast atm has more diverse builds which work in WvW. Untamed, even in sPVP has only one build that worked properly. Maybe after they will buff/fix the Hammer, Untamed will have more versatile builds, and who knows, perhaps he will be asked in front-line raids too.
  3. Untamed looks ok, from my POV. In all three modes: PVE, sPVP and WvW is doing pretty well. 1. sPVP: Untamed is strong. He can face almost all other classes. He has a good dps and can stay alive for enough time on the point until the aid is coming. 2. PVE: solo is still one of the best/safest classes in the game. It has enough cc from personal skills + pets skills. On open-world bosses is doing pretty well, I don't have a dps meter, so I don't know how good it is compared with other classes. I don't know how it is performing in Fractals and Raids yet. 3. WvW: well, it is almost the same as before with the other ranger's specializations. One of the best in Roaming and one of the worst (if not THE worst) in Squad/Zerg/Raids. I mean, in Squad, he can survive, he is there, he can kill enemies on walls but doesn't contribute to the squad like other classes. So he can be disposed of any time from the team in exchange for other classes. It would be nice if the new pets would be more powerful/beneficial so they can be used instead of the old pets such as Smokescale, Drake, Birds, Gazelle, Wolf or Porcine. In other words, Untamed is ok; I don't find the same fun as with the Soulbeast (which was very action/entertaining when you could swap pets in combat) but is not so bad. I forgot to say about the Hammer. Hammer atm is almost useless. No one will use it if you don't give it some love. Regards, Dragonzhunter
  4. Unfortunately, AGAIN, in WvW, the ranger is good only as a Roamer. And this is not going to change soon.
  5. After few fights, I think I'll stay with this one for a while: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?POgAENlZwWZssQmLOWXrRtSeQaA-z5IWGNWA9mAyOA
  6. I think the MM 3-3-2 is what Eurantien is using instead of Survival. So, yes it is a good choice. I'll try this too. Ty.
  7. - "Why did you go for Resounding Timbre?" - I shouldn't, I used it before with We Heal As One. Now the better is Potent Ally or Go for the Eye. Or you can use it with WHAO, for healing and more boons. - "Wouldn't Honed Axe be more efficient in the long run over Zephyr's Speed?" depends of your playing style, how often are you swap the pets. I prefer Zephyr for Quickness and Superspeed.
  8. I chose Cantrip just to use more Untamed skills, but ofc the better one is Troll, for another 2 condi cleanse. " wilderness knowledge only for 1 survival skill?" well, I don't think there is a better trait in that column, and as I said above, you can use Troll Unguent too, so you have 2 skills for Condi cleanse. Paladin's amulet is the most balanced amulet between offensive and defensive. Ofc you can choose something with more damage or something with more defensive stats. This build is what I am playing atm. If you think there are better options for this build or a different build, please share with us.
  9. Hi Rangers! I just came back two weeks ago for a long break from GW2. I didn't get used to the Untamed as I should, so I thought maybe we should share some builds/setups for this specialization here. These are my suggestions for the moment: sPVP: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?POgAEJllyWZsMPmLeSXrRrSeQaA-z5QXINWAZGB9mCyOA Roaming: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?POgAEJllyWZsMPmLeSXrRrSk+BA-zVJYiR1/h0kCITRQvSBNeAC4PA-w Please share with me all your builds/thoughts. Thank you, Dragonzhunter
  10. Please delete
  11. Eurantien, would you please post your build/setup for Untamed? (For sPVP or Roaming) I came back for more than 1-year break and I didn't test enough this specialization. I mean I tried a few times as a roamer on WvW, but Soulbeast seems to be way stronger. Maybe I didn't choose the right traits/weapons for Untamed. Thank you! PS: this is what I am playing now: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?POwAweJllyUZsMPmLeSX7RrSeQaA-zVRYBBLG2JoxZZ1zI-w for roaming and http://gw2skills.net/editor/?POwAweJllyUZsMPmLeSX7RrSeQaA-z5QXCyOA sPVP
  12. lol, are you joking, right? Ranger = Hunter in MMO. Ranger in GW2 was design since the beginning as a character with a Bow and a Pet. https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Ranger , check the pictogram and the definition. Ranger from GW2 is the same as Hunter in WoW (One of the best MMO). So please don't make the assumption the Ranger has never meant archer. Please don't argue with the developer of the game, I think he knew better what he meant when he made the game, right?
  13. You didn't write "New op build for ranger pvp"? Is OP or very decent? You have to decide. 🙂
  14. Bigo, it is useless to explain them, the only purpose they have is to disable pet in downstate. Doesn't matter the pet is actually part of the Ranger, and it is not just a skill/utility/accessory or tool. They don't know as a Ranger you can't disable your pet and fight by yourself, because pet always will follow you, even if he is dead he will revive himself in time, they don't know that even you are going in stealth the pet will still follow you without being invisible and reveal your position or at least what direction are you heading. I will happily trade these things with disable pet in downstate, because downstate 90% of the time it is useless anyway in WvW and sPVP. As I said above, we should let them say whatever they want because they are incorrigibles. Have a good day or night!
