InsaneQR.7412 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Nope no backstab. That's thief territory and should not get into ranger mechanicsTraps at 600 range would be enough IMO. It's a nice middle ground between no range and full range and it prevents abusing/complaining.Traps trait should give spike trap on getting disabled. Trap condis/boon should get increased baseline. Entangle should be the elite trap. Pulsing roots more than once.Shortbow piercing should be baseline on the auto attack.Shortbow flanking improves provided by the trait should be put on the weapon without the trait (maybe tuned/adjusted in some way) Skirmishing in total should be reworked in similar style to renegade traits. So boosting precision, ferocity and condi damage respectively. Torch and dagger traits should get reworked too.Dagger and sword trait should be put in the same trait and should focus on getting bonuses on evadesTorch should get bonuses on combofields like increasing field duration when combing in itDagger would benefit from a shadowstep on crippling talon and ammo on stalker strikeTorch could need ammo and cleave on throw torch and ground target range 900 on bonfireAdd a trait that adds a small cleave AoE on projectile finishers. Maybe slab that on the LoyF trait.Increased ranged on shortbow is fine IMOBetter weaponswaps traits in skirmishing like triggering smaller sharpening stone on weaponswaps etc.Thats all I would add for condi.Druid is a whole other story and needs mechanical changes first before the traits or the weapons gets touched.

About the condi ranger i dont think wee need that much rework, just small changes.all ranger projectiles by baseline has 100% to trigger combo porjectile.shortbow range 1200Shortbow remove the flanking thing, it applies the actual flanking effect to target.Shortbow projectiles splinter on impact hiting another 2 targets in 300 radius applying the actual no-flanking effects.Shortbow GM increase the splinter effect to 450 radius + 2 aditional targets, plus condition damage when welding the weapon.Skirimish sharpened edges to be a minor.new trait garantes 100% chance on crit for shapened edges .There are more details about the rework in thread in my signature, like the vines traps or the smocke trap.I like the idea of ranged AoE for spirits, i preffer traps to behave now, it's more consistent.The difference is you can use the any projectile to trigger combo fields, which traps should be ale to provide.I think that design is more engaging without giving to much ranged AoE.The bunny trumpet could be the next spec to bring necro alike ranged AoEs.

InsaneQR.7412 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 @""anduriell.6280"Yeah these ideas seem nice too.Sharpened edges and hidden barbs could be merged and a new trait that would trigger sharpening stone could be nice. Like on weaponswaps or on finisher trigger with an ICD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swagger.1459 Posted October 27, 2019 Author Share Posted October 27, 2019 Then post your mighty 1v4 condi Ranger build and show us your vids.I have 7 rangers by the way, all with multiple gear sets for different builds, and 1 with full legendary gears to test every build. I’m fully aware of the difference in performance levels inside wvw for different Ranger set-ups. This year was the first time I ever ran a zerker type build, just so you’re aware of how much I have avoided meta builds over 7 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read tool tips and stop using the same 3 pets for 6+ years and maybe for once youll see something you havent before lolYou can say whatever you want, but in WvW, a condition ranger with short bow can't beat a power ranger with Lb/Gs. This is not happening in PvP either. Only if you are a really, really, really good player, and your opponent is a medium player, then yes you can beat with condition build a power build. Condition build is a close / medium range, that's why couldn't performe the same way as a power Lb/Gs build in WvW, where it is an open space for fights. Yes a condi trapper build it is annoying and he can make a lots of trouble to any other class, even against a ranger, but if the opponent is on the same calibre regarding fighting skills, I really doubt that in WvW the condi can beat power. And it is not about the pets, but about the condi weapon ranger have and about all the coef. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You make me laugh.For the rest of the fights, as @Swagger.1459 already said, your builds are power-based, weapons, traits, utilities all are power things and not condi (well almost of them at least).

anduriell.6280 Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Nah i said before. We need in the forums the information of how many hours with reach class in each gamemode that commenter has. Then you can decide if you bite or ignore the comment. Too many F2P troll accounts. It's too easy. At least limit the posting to B2P accounts as to limit the trolling.
