@@1990RichardLee They are farmable but the drop rate is crazy low. To be fair, I used to use them on Radahn and nothing else. These days I don't use them on anything, but then I've never done a bow only run.
+ak47ava .dman gw2skills.net/editor/?vFAQJAoYhcMowhdOwxB8RMsBYVPYDeDoVQGYEMNgAwFE-TJxHABC8AAEf/BkKDAwJAAA I haven't really played much though since I made this vid though so there are probably some improvements that could be made with it
Dude, i think they just dropped this build from MetaBattle. I was using it too, but the Rune of Durability and the Celestial Amulet have been removed from game. Found your video as i was looking for more info or a plan B.
+Eduarth Heinen Here's a build I've been thinking of trying for a bunker setup gw2skills.net/editor/?vFAQJAoYhcMowhdOwxB8RMsBYVPYDeDoVQGYEMNgAQBE-TJRIABGVGY2TAA47PAwDAAA not sure on my rune/sigil choices yet though
+dowddash I haven't really been playing much recently, but Revenant is what I think I might go for in ranked matches since I feel as though Power Shatter is struggling currently. Might give Condi Chrono a go at some point though
Sanders Obiris Thank you for the comment :) the 16/03 patch seems to have done the reverse in PvP maps, with some blink spots/phase retreats being easier to perform than before (for example the ledges on Niflhel's Keep are now much easier to blink onto and you can now use phase retreat to get up there). Some new spots have also been found too (The phase retreats I did here were done after the patch hit, though idk if I just missed them before).
gw2skills.net/editor/?fJAQNApZSjMd04ZVIuewJagfgC9t3C5gpAQda8GlBA-TJRDwA42fgyjAobZAAnBAA This is the build I used in this video. That said though its a bit old so there are probably some things that could be done better. Changes I think I would make would be maybe make it more like this : gw2skills.net/editor/?fJAQNApcSjMdUGaVIueQHagfgC5t3CGDgjWda8GlBA-TpRHwAFOCABeAACOEAAOBAk2f4YZAA
Great vid!! It seems to me though that the other team wasn't that well coordinated. I mean, you sat in mid the entire match and most of the time it was only 1-2 enemies that came to attack against you and your two teammates. I saw them getting 3v1'd so many times it was kinda pathetic lol. If I were on red team, I'd say screw mid and focus on capping home and far. Anyways, great vid!
While I do not see myself as an expert Elementalist (as in ToL worthy) I do not believe that Celestial D/D is too hard to play once you have got attunement swapping down. The main reason why I say this is because I feel as though its currently a bit too strong, mostly in terms of might stacking and damage. The main times I find I have difficulties is if I am focused by three or more people, am attacked by someone with a high amount of burst (e.g. Fresh Air Ele) or am stuck in a chain of CC. Difficultywise I think I would rate it as medium difficulty - you have high Cooldowns, Attunements and the lowest base health and armour to manage, making it more difficult than playing something like a warrior, but it is not particularly risky or complex to set up damage when compared to something like a Shatter Mesmer. I hope this reply helps and isn't too long ><
the build maybe Zerker , but for sure you can't land most of the rapid fires, change the bird to a owl or a Frost Drake , i'd go with the frost drake most pvp arenas don't need anymore than the on swap swiftness , that'll fix you missing targets. also don't move a lot when using rapid fire , if you move it don't track as well.
Hi, thank you for your comment. I wasn't aware that rapid fire would miss if I was moving, I thought that Read The Wind would help avoid that. Which pet are do you mean I should swap to Owl/Frost drake btw? Atm I am using Wolf / River Drake. I'll admit I still have a fair bit of work to do learning the class / build, I've not really been playing it for long and I still feel as though I make a lot of mistakes (As you say I seem to miss with some of my Rapid Fires, and I think my general pet management needs work)
the drakes good but since your running zerker , you won't be at close close melee range , the first skill a drake uses is its Aoe knockback, same as the canine that uses its knockdown leap first when swapped, so to support your Lb attacks try the swap river drake to frost drake. when a drake uses its Breath attack it can reach about 400-500 yards , a good time to use its f2 is during a longbow 4 , as they walk/run till about 200 yards away from you . f2 the drake and instantly knockback>rapid fire>huntershot. the time to cast the frost breath takes 1/2 a sec longer than the animation of Point blank shot so the breath hits, just as the person is knocked back through the breath , chilling them, then you can rapid fire. it realy helps with barrage too chill and cripple. just open with huntershot stay stealthed will the pets in combat, then pointblank anyone that is trying to finish people ect, or if they try and chase you, if none of those are happening Barrage the smit out of them with chill and cripple>rapid fire since the frost breath is a cone attack it'll hit more than one person at the right angle, maps like the one with the orb , it'll help a lot. when you do play that map again , swap signet of the hunt for muddy terrain , slowing people has a better time on that particular map. if you can pull off the Chill+cripple/barrage>rapid fire it'll deal quite a lot of damage to Multipul foes, if the drake chills more than one then choose to barrge instead, then follow with rapid fire as now they have cripple. last tip for rapid fire , if you do have to move keep it close to the target, the rapid fire damage isn't effected by Longbow skill 1 , its damage isn't done by distance, so you can get close use rapid fire, kite around to thier back, left or right where ever is needed, and huntershot(vanish and repostion) or point blank them off a cap point while doing some decent damage. i generaly use the above as a methord of attack on a cap point after a Barrage>hunters shot>pet f2. though im not sure if the tactic in the last sentence will work with zerker without taking too much damage. hope this helps , though lb is a bit gimpy with this application of damage if you don't jerk it around too much its damage will be amazing.
