Ok, What Is a Good Longbow Build?

[Akisohida.8963]

Because I just tried, again, to play PvP.

 

Guess what? If I did Hunter's Shot; people just ran RIGHT at me and beat me out of stealth, regardless of what direction I went. _(I once ran off a cliff while invisible and the Necro and Mesmer followed me without pause)_

So I guess there are 'See through invisibility' skills? Or what other excuses are there that me going invisible was garbage?

 

Oh, and my crits, despite building as hard as I could for crit and crit damage, did 2-3k, with a longbow, at maximum range, while I got beat down for 10-14k from Mesmers and Necromancers.

 

So please, tell me; what's a 'legit' build? Because apparently not doing things **exactly** as needed means the game cripples you for 75% of your damage or something and flips you the bird.

There aren't really any good longbow builds. You can maybe play longbow druid to some success but with spellbreakers everywhere good luck taking a point from them while playing druid.

 

INB4 non-legendary players tell me that druid beats spellbreaker 1v1

[Darknicrofia.2604]

I hear playing literally anything other than core condi pu mesmer makes you do ridiculous damage.

[Sifu.9745]

If you wanna play a Longbow play condi Warrior/Berserker or even LB Guardian DH can do it better then Ranger. You know Ranger is not the only class with LB.

I actually run with lb as my secondary as war.

Pretty gud.

Dunno. Tbh I only use my main set. I only swap weapons for Condi removal and quickness. Or when people attempt to kite me off point.

Now you made me think of something... to be continued.

Both core and druid longbow builds are better than soulbeast.

Core is better than SB lb/gs?
