[22] Guild Wars 2 Builds - Ranger: Greatsword & Dual Axe "Signet" Build |PVE

By: Soul Step (Updated 7/9/2012)


(View Build)

I like the Ranger profession because you're not restricted to only using bows. Along with Signets, this build will use the Greatsword and Dual Axes as weapons

Weapon Set:
Primary: Greatsword
Secondary: Dual Axes

Healing, Utility, Elite Skills:
Healing:
(6) Healing Spring - regenerate health and remove conditions. The removing of conditions works well with Signet of the Beastmast trait.

Utility:
(7) Signet of Renewal - great survival skill to have

(8) Signet of the Hunt - another great survival skill with its passive and a nice damage boost to your pet on the active.

(9) Signet of the Wild - for the passive, provides another means of healing. The active makes your pet more useful.

Elite:
(0) Rampage As One - A good steroid boost for you and your pet.

Traits: Build output is 30/15/0/25/0. It's not often where I'll put points into trait lines up to a minor trait, but this output will maximize your damage.
Marksmanship:
(IV) Signet Mastery - a must have for signet builds to recharge them faster.


(IX) Beastmaster's Might - a damage booster when using a signet.


(XI) Signet of the Beastmaster - Gaining the active effect from the signet is a huge plus.


Skirmishing:
(V) Companions's Might - great trait for your pet to have.


Minor Trait:
(15) Furious Grip - gain a boon for weapon swapping is great. Use your axe skills at mid range then weapon swap into greatsword for the kill.


Nature Magic:
(V) Strength of Spirit - With 25 points in Nature Magic, you'll gain 25 extra points in power.


(IX) Two-handed Training - Increase your greatsword damage.


Minor Trait:
(25) Bountiful Hunter - Another damage boost, which works well with the Furious Grip and Beastmaster's Might traits.


With this build you and your pet will be able to a lot damage as the Signet skills provide you survivability.
