Yep, with Willbender I feel like a ninja dashing and bouncing laying fire areas everywhere (okay except when I forget to target a "certain" Boss and dash out of the platform hoping nobody saw me). Too bad the Jade Tech Hat (available on TP) is only for Medium Specs..

Thank you. I always played burn guard so my fingers tend to avoid the F1 button, still seems funky to me to hide a passive behind a skill usage, but I will adapt for sure, looks like we have 8 seconds of active passive if traited, with refresh on kill so It's all good. Thanks for the info.

Guys, I don't know if it's bugged, but Permeating Wrath and Amplified Wrath doesn't work with Willbender. I do far more dps and above all, Cleave, with core guard than with Willbender. These 2 Traits are just wasted since they seems to do nothing toward your F1. As a burn guard all that matter is to proc permeating wrath as much as possible (every 3 hits for the area burning, and every 1,5 hits on symbol).

It's a real issue, but don't be naive guys, It's not a shame to be steamrolled by a bot, It's even by definition pretty normal, we are humans. And you can be thankful that bots in Gw2 are not even close to Bots AI in mmorpgs like WoW for example.I see a lot of people saying that you'r bad if you lose vs a bot, It can be true here in gw2 (yet), if you never experienced bots in any other games.But the fact is, a perfectly well elaborated bot will always surpass any human behaviours in a said content, so no, you can't take it lightly, because bots can always be improved over time.

We have mounts and a lot of busted specs and viable builds now, even for core classes, It's Cantha, as a Gw1 player, I want it hard as " Kitten" so I need to use my brain to not die like a squirrel in a blunder.

Just add trade fees for Orders to prevent Walls shenanigans.

Hi ! For your first combination, depending on the class it could be a good idea to replace Precision with Ferocity, a lot of power specs has %critchance bonuses and fury is straight 20%.. Could be a good pick for Revenant which can double the fury effectiveness to 40%, for exemple.Not having Ferocity at all on a power build is like doing 2 times less damages, and Crit Chance is easier to grab outside of the gears.I used to love Toughness but because of its diminishing returns and the fact that Toughness is a No Go for some end game content, it made me avoiding it completely.. I personally think that Toughness overall deserve a rework. You can't make a Power variant of Trailblazer because condi only needs 2 stats to be optimal, Condition, Expertise, the rest doesn't matter.Power variant would be Power, Precision, Ferocity, Toughness, Vitality, but that is 5 differents attributes.... When it's not all about DPS, Condi builds has it better since it can combine maximum condi dps while tanking Vitality and Tougness, It is not balanced at all.I definitely like your second combo, soft CCs deserve some love... (Maybe not in Pvp tho).As a player that loves to make builds and optimizing setups depending on my needs, I would like to see more available choices..

Erm... Just one critical Nope exemple for a condi build : Firebrand + Zeal + Radiance + Virtues (almighty Permeating Wrath)... Unless you want to be able to destroy anything in Tyria playing solo, It's not that good of an idea.. But as a player that loves theorycrafting in mmorpg before everything else, I can understand where you are coming from, the actual meta is boring as Kittens.But the fact is, a lot of "non-meta" builds or bad builds goes from 0 to WTF if you dare adding one extra Trait, or even one extra Minor, and it's not really consistant between classes, so you can't apply the same rules/restrictions to each of them, It's a good Idea on the paper but I doubt Anet will bother to do that, It's a huge amount of work.. And we don't know yet which direction they will take for the next extension specs (if there are any).

We can legitimately ask this kind of questions the day they will stop struggling keeping their promises, there are actually too much things "on the table" for something that fancy.

I can hear a boss fight music in the distance, with my eyes.

I just want to be awesome again.

If all these players complaining about Trahearne played GuildWars1, It would not be the case.Kittensss, Kormir in the last Nightfall missions to the abaddon fight, she's just here like, " I follow you but I'm not going to participate in your fights even if you'r next to me dying ".And then, at the end, takes all the glory, became a Godess, and tells you " It's your world, take care of it" or even " You'r not fighting alone ", and kitten leaves you alone, you and your efforts, not even a thanks, nothing, she caused all this , you fixed all, and she just go doing her godly manicure. Yes I hate Kormir, that, much. Trahearne at least respects you.

Hi ! It's really a good thing that you'r looking for improvements and checking your different options.On topic, with the correct build and setup, (berserker and even marauder) your greatsword & Longbow autos should already hit for ~7k.Now I don't know if you like to play as a Soulbeast, it actually has the highest burst opener in the game (50 to 60k with all buffs) around 25k alone, but of course it's a burst so it falls quickly, but stays on par with the average dps for longer fights.Problem is, to reach these numbers you can't have both greatsword and Long Bow, since Dagger/Axe is mandatory (Whirling Defense is the best ranger's damage skill).But if you really can't stand Dagger/Axe on your Ranger, which I can understand, knows that as a Ranger you can bring Spirits to your party. With Quickness and 25 Might stacks you can expect to push at least 15k during fractals/dungeons using Bow/Greatsword, It's not that high but I guess it's the price to play what you loves instead of what performs the best, you should be able to do well in most pve content, except for some raids Pugging, of course.Little tip, try to avoid pugging instanced contents if you are playing off-meta builds, better to play those with friends/guildmates that know how to deal with / compliment it, a lot of people in pugs get really salty when they are dealing with a dps that does 2times less than every other dps (which I can understand too).

Something that don't makes me fall flat on my keyboard one day after its introduction..Silverwastes was the perfect balance between team work investment, organization, mechanics and rewards and the replayability was on point.Too bad all night long chest farming squads died little by little.. Good Ol' memories !

Ironically, she "had to leave" one month after she learned about a mount bug for some users..https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/66904/about-the-mount-bug-not-loading-and-character-stuck-sitting-in-the-ground-a-band-aid-solutionSpoiler Alert : It's still not fixed.I lost all hope to see this bug fixed one day when I heard about this, didn't see anyone else as much invested community wise to make the game better since.
