Buran.3796 Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 I'm in the third month in a row playing bunker variants and want a change. Noticed that ranged builds are almost absent; I would want to run some kind of archer but I don't like pets and Ranger variants seems to be the only bow wielding classes. Should I try Deadeye's rifle, there's something else? Used to run a rifle Warrior but after the introduction of the ammunition mechanics looks meh...

UNOwen.7132 Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 DH is probably the best of the remaining long-range users. Deadeye is alright if you never kneel, but youre still vulnerable to being jumped by a power Rev or any other high mobility class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stand The Wall.6987 Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 uh no, there are plenty of ranged builds except they don't seem that way cuz their 2nd weapon or profession mechanic is melee. they may not be top tier builds but you can do alright with them (plus the added bonus of having fun if you like ranged). options include: power mes core necro staff tempest dh deadeye holo with cc: storm or just regular rifle holo scourge sorta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
otto.5684 Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Deadeye for pure range. Holo and necro have good range options. Nothing else really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buran.3796 Posted April 17, 2020 Author Share Posted April 17, 2020 Thanx for the answers; I'll try a bit the Deadeye (had it's rifle skills still locked!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, if you do I recommend you avoid kneeling basically at all. Its really bad outside of very specific scenarios. Just spam unkneeled 2 and hit DJs once youre at max malice.

Just don't kneel unless ur a safe distance from ur opponent, I mean a real safe distance lol otherwise forget kneel exists or ull have a bad time. Anet failed good on the kneel, it should cancel just by moving in a direction instead of the bs lockdown it does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avatar.3568 Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 If you do not like pets you could go soulbeast, with marksman/beast mastery, zerker Amulett and eagle rune, it's good payable until you reach Plat 2 With greatsword and longbow you deal insane dmg, but you will get insane dmg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
