Apr 28, 2016 As we all know ranger class is pretty much nothing in front of dwarfs and mages in terms of dps, so I wanted to know the opinion of experienced rangers on the overall setup that they feel is best for bosses. My setup at the moment with 4 pieces of dark set + dmg torso: Amulet: 104 dmg ( still looking for 45% crit dmg amulet from Nerfertari boss). Essential Pets for a Versatile Ranger. For both condi & power builds. For fractals & raids (let's assume that covers open world PvE) Formerly 'good' pets probably make sense, too, since we know the balance pendulum keeps swinging. Guild Wars 2 Ranger Pet Guide by Sycthrex. Hello fellow Rangers and welcome players who are new to the Ranger! Hopefully you will have come here from my Ranger Guide but if not then please don’t hesitate to go check that out, it is full of information you may want to know if you want to delve into the PvP side of things for the Ranger. Technically pet choice is situational and may be dependent on what your needs require. I would say that generally for PVE, if traited a certain way, cat ( IMHO Lynx more specifically ) will always be the most desireable choice because of their high damage output. 20 points in Skirmishing for: I Pet's Prowess - Pets do 30% more damage on.
