Slash is also Ranger's GS chain. And Swoop is GS3. And the death recap combines those skills all the time, in the same way it does for Maul(Pig) and Ranger Maul. Pets hit too hard but the death recap isn't always the most reliable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ye, hence why ranger icons share the same icons with a pet /s I guess, its the ranger auto too ![](https://i.imgur.com/xui7tne.jpg "") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The skills have different ids in the api and that's the data the recap uses. GS slash is 12474 and and the bird slash is 12682. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kuma.1503 Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 i've never had an issue with birds. Toss some cripple on them and kite around and they'll quickly die to your cleave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strider.7849 Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 > @"Erzian.5218" said: > Yeah, bird damage is way too high at the moment. Both, f2 and swoop hit too hard and bird auto attack damage is debatable too. Ranger has always been unfun to duel but right now, you are dueling the bird while you try to avoid mauls from the pet (the player). > The combination of pet swap, Maul and f2 often hits for more than 10k (6k+ from bird f2, 4k+ from maul) with quickness (the quickness trait might also be a bit too strong since they nerfed quickness access across the board) and from stealth which hides the maul animation. Talking about core ranger as I rarely play soul beast. If you literally just attack the bird it dies. I've never, ever had problems with bird pets EXCEPT the bird that spawns from the privateer Rune while on Mesmer, only because at one time (not sure if it still does) it only attacked the real Mesmer. Even then it wasnt a problem in itself, just that it gave a cue to players which one to focus. Can these nerf everything threads on things that aren't a problem please disappear.

aymnad.9023 Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 Lol. People will always complain about ranger even when it has been average for so long. Birds will die on anything. Even if they are not focused, any little cleave, aoe will take them out. Funny how people always want a nerf on the few pets they see and will not want any buffs on the rest :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GS slash is 12474 and and the bird slash is 12682. And the Soulbeast Porcine Maul is separate from the pig one (IDs 41406 and 12734) but both are reported under the same icon in death recaps. Same with merge swoop and bird swoop (44991 and 12709, respectively), as far as I can tell. The bird slash and GS slash stay separate, but there's a lot of soulbeast things that don't because of the merge. Skill ID doesn't necessarily matter for the death recap because it's notoriously unreliable. It's also infuriatingly difficult to get a decent looking recap showing the information you want, lol Anyways, pets do too much damage, but I really don't think death recap screenshots are particularly useful given the lack of a timeline, inconsistency, and general misrepresentation of what's actually killing people they bring. That goes for every source of damage, not just pets or ranger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes dodging is just too much effort. Especially in a match where your sidenoder has just lost like a dozen 1v1s in a row in under 5 minutes. Bird autoattacking still managed to be top tho.
