Well on a sad note I realise gw2 is not on steam anyway. But its always a possibility down the line? And as for "toxic fans" whats that got to do with what platform you play it on? The point is more possibilities are opening on consoles now. Nc are even remaking mmos for for both pc and console so you can see the direction they want to take since they rebranded. Honestly I think it would be a great move, specially as they are now thinking long turm for this game.

OK I know anet said a long time ago they will not be doing a port, but let's face it times have changed with both consoles and with the up and coming revamp to gw2, so in order to keep the played base healthy and with a massive increase to revenue why would they not? Also earlier this year it was mentioned that steam may have a high possibility to come to console, so in that regard if it does surely console players would be able to download it via steam if they allow crossplay. Nc are even now starting to move into crossplay with their mmo titles and being money grabbers they may encourage anet to make the move.? What do people think, do you think anet have to get with the times and realise most games are becoming crossplay, would you welcome the increased player base? I think it could work as other mmo titles have done a great job so far. Fingers crossed 🤞

Soul beast with mad King runes can take a bar off most classes, with just a few skill. One wolf pack, hunters call and smoke assault....you don't even need sic em.

I sure this has been suggested before but hey ho... How about we make use off that gate in eye if the north, it would be nice if they added all the dungeons to it, maybe 30 tokens and some karma to unlock each dungeon.

Ranger hard counters most LR builds.Stone shield is a soft counter to rangers. Lightning Rod Weaver counters rangers pretty well. There are a ton of projectile denials on d/f for the longbow and the shocking aura, CCs, unblockable knockdown, weakness, and blind counters gs. Rangers can't even use Lightning Reflexes vs. shocking aura because it stuns us immediately after the stunbreak. The only ranger build that is a pretty good counter to d/f weaver is the immobilize spam druid but that's just because the weaver build can't get rid of the immobilize very easily because it prevents cleansing wave on dodge.Try playing a soulbeast with s/d gs with smokescale, does extremely well vs weaver. 3 sb, 7 evades, plus your blocks immobs and knockdown. Even if you can't play soulbeast just spam your weapon skills you will still have a decent chance off beating them.

There is no random CC. The pets use it as the first or second attack after switching and on cooldown afterwards. Most of them have also an obvious animation that is easy to dodge. And pets miss around 80% of their attacks anyway if you keep moving...If you get constantly CCed by passive pet skills it's a player problem, not the game. “An obvious animation” Who has time to look at pet animations when you’re busy watching the ranger and trying to dodge a knock back, maul, stun, or interrupt their heals? I guess that works if you’re playing something that can just absorb constant damage and save dodges. But it isn’t realistic. To me all the tiger animations look the same. I think one has a charge up but it’s near impossible to keep track of the animations if you’re on something that isn’t bunker or that doesn’t have excess dodges. Exactly this. The animations are barely noticeable, the pet swap animations are clunky as well as the pet movement. When a ranger swaps pet its completly random animation wise. Also random CC on pets - and they are random as there is no distinct call or player choice as to when they are executed (even the ranger does not see its cooldown) - is always terrible. First off yeah some off the pets are strong without a doubt.But the cc is not random it states how long the cd is, all you have to do is look at the 15 minute timer and subject the cd from there, it's that simple. Every skill is random to the enemy as you have no idea what they are going to use next.Core ranger is super strong still but mainly as a duelest.

Well you can always buy them from the wvw/pvp vendors if you enjoy those modes, if not you can always do strike missions and buy them from the vendor there. Other than that it's with achievements, crafting and mob/chest drops. You could just look at wiki though has much more detail about it.

Precursors are a myth... 7000k hours since launch and still never had one drop :(

I really enjoyed 2v2...much more than conquest, the they could just change the down state, or the insta reving, there would at least be more balance on that side off things. Just hope they do a 3v3 or even a 1v1 down the line.

-Takes 36,000 damage-Still alive uh what? More to the point, if I can lay down that kind of damage willy nilly then why am I told to reroll when I bring a ranger into a zerg? Surely being able to instagib 5 people in mere seconds should make us top pick Something's just not adding up Looks like he was just being attacked by 2 people so not really a zerg fight. And I think you are forgetting about his downed health bar, the last hit would off been whe he was downed.

An elite and one skill is not a combo or at least a worthy one.... The elite is an active passive utility and the runes are, well as you know also passive and like I said before the 6th rune acts like hunters call, it does the same damage and the same amount off hits, I'm guessing when the runes were developed anet took the skills coding strait from hunters call, that is a guess but that's probably why the combat log says hunters call. I bored off talking to you now cos it's just a broken record. I have said this is 2xhunters calls (one with the 6th rune bonus) and the elite.... Regardless what you think the whole post was to show just how retarded the damage is. That's fine if you think 40k damage is OK, luckily for us you're not a developer.

What are you trying to argue? Does this or does this not do over 40k?Every skill in this game can be avoided so what's you point and like any skill with baiting or just a prolonged fight it will land. I'm guessing you have played warhorn, unless you play blindfolded it's not that hard to land the skill.

Er I said retel is a big counter, never in all the time I've played it have I had 20k taken from me though 10k yes, but that's when I started playing the class and I wasn't paying attention, I'm guessing protection comes into play which ranger has abundance off.I wouldn't recommend this build for conquest obviously, its more off a wvw or dueling build.

OK is this post not about damage modifications? all that video shows is 2x hunters call, (because that's what the 6th rune essentially is minus the vulnerability) with one wolf pack. The video was just showing that this is a broken combination, 25k damage with ws and nm so basically a bunker build and 40+k with a more power and this is with little as 2 buttons and also post patch where damage has been reduced. How can you defend this and say its a meme build. Its the goto rune for warhorn. So yeah the video does show what I said, you try this with any other single damaging skill and I bet you won't get over 40k

Post a video and prove it. There is no way it does that much. It's also not AoE... OK I will, won't be able to till tonight though and trust me it does aoe damage. Lots off little numbers add up and there are lots. It doesn't do AoE. It's a single target skill... OK there is the video you requested, it's 42k damage... Scroll down and add it up yourself if you still think it's kittens as you said. And yes I know I missed the heal for the extra might. I was also trying with bunker builds and even those were getting 25k And not sure if you notice but would you look at that it was aoe and to think you were calling me a liar. Yeah, that's not special or broken or anything. Pretty soon I bet you're gonna hop in here and complain rangers are self rezzing with rez spirit. So first you call me a liar saying it can't be done, then when I prove you wrong you say its nothing special lolI'm not complaining I'm quite happy taking full bars off people with 2 skills. But yeah it is broken... 2 buttons with over 60 hits and just insane damage.Wvw is even worse, all those glass cannon sic rangers running about and heres me one shoting them with hunters call in a tanky build.
