What's your most commonly used Ranger PvE build lately?

[Kilme]

Always remember that with 5e & 10e skills, having your expertise as high as 12 isn't gaining you hardly anything. In fact it only makes 10e skills cost 1 less energy than if you had your expertise at 9!

So thats 49 attribute points (assuming no runes) that you could allocate elsewhere.

Yeah, but for that build there isn't much else to do with my points. I could add more Marks, but it's already at 13, so more points wouldn't help that much. I also stuck the points there to help out Lightning Reflexes. I wouldn't put them in Wilderness either, since I'd only gain a second or two on Apply Poison, which I don't think is worth it.

I suppose I could take out the points, and shove them into Prot, then substitute Antidote Sig for Mending Touch. It may even knock a second off of Rebirth.

[Bulletdodger]

My build is pretty straightforward:
Marksmanship - 12+1+3
Expertise - 12+1
Wilderness Survival - 3+1
Barrage{E}
Savage shot
Distracting Shot
Lightning Reflexes
Antidote signet
Troll unguent
"I am the strongest!"

Just spam barrage till your fingers hurt , went through Nightfall and EoTN with this build , If you want to complicate , take a piont or two from marksmanship , put expertise at 9 and put splinter weapon , high dps with no worries

This is what I've been using these days.


[build=OgMTcXMmXyVS14xY2Im034XTmAA]

Runes:
Exp: 2+1
WS: +1
Marks: +1

Keeps those HM casters quiet majority of the time

Hallelujah!

and Finish Him is freakin' awesome!!!!

[Malhavoc Adhamar]

Finish Him is freakin' awesome!!!!

Yes, yes it is.

[beldeti]

Marks 16
Exp 13

Keen Arrow
Ebon Sin
Read the Wind / Volley
Distracting Shot
Broad Head Arrow (e)
"Finish Him!"
Pain Inverter
Rebirth / Lightning Reflexes

Two-target shutdown:Ebon Sin + BHA on one, then Pain Inverter on another (esp. AOE enemy).

This is an NM build though, I'll try out Malhavoc Adamar's skillbar when going for Guardian/Vanquisher.

[Kendel]

Yeah i feel compelled to never take Finish Him off my Rangers bar. Same goes with Dwarf... and Prep Shot to fuel them...

My general build is Prep Shot w/ RtW. Build i used for Guardian/Vanquisher was the glorious Smoke Trapper.

[build name="Jair's PvE Ranger Build" box prof=Ranger/Monk desc="Weapon : Sundering Longbow of Fortitude" {br} Expertise=11+1 Marksmanship=10+1+1 WildernessSurvival=10+1 ][BHA][Savage Shot][finish him][pain inverter][apply poison][great dwarf armor][troll unguent][rebirth][/build]

This is what I've been using lately. I use Radiant Insignia's on my armor.
I've given up Ursan for this build

[Striken7]

I put this together to run with 3 Discord Necro's.

Ranger/Necromancer
Expertise 12+2+1
Beast Mastery 12+1
Curses 3

Necrosis
Enfeeble
"You Move Like a Dwarf!"
Ferocious Strike
Call of Haste
Comfort Animal
Charm Animal
Sunspear Rebirth Signet

Still testing it, but the basic idea is keep Conditions on all targets, use Necrosis for damage, and really the Pet stuff is just for fun, though Ferocious Strike helps keep Energy up (if my pet gets a hit off before all of the enemies are dead).

I've tweaked my Necro bars to provide complete Hex coverage, Minions, and two N/Rt healers.

When I wanna play a real Ranger, I go BHA w/ Penetrating + Sundering, Savage, "I am the strongest" and "Finish Him".

[GWBD]

ranger/ele
i got:
barrage
bodyshot
slot huntershot
poisiontip signet
charm animal - white moa (name chocobow)
res signet
storm chaser
troll unguent

[shanaya]

R/Me

Marksmanship 16
Expertise 13

At the start of any attack these go up first:

Dwarven Stability - at Deldrimor R10 gives me 30 seconds where any stance lasts 100% longer
...and here's the stance:
Lightening Reflexes - 20 seconds of 33% IAS, plus good chance to block melee and projectile attacks

Broadhead Arrow - daze that caster
Epidemic - and his neighbours
Volley - interrupt the dazed group
Distracting Shot - more interrupt
Savage Shot - and still more
Throw Dirt - for those pesky melee types that break through

I've given up taking a resurrect as I mostly do HM and mostly go H/H, with the hero's rezzes micro-managed. If there's a problem as a result of over-aggro'ing then rather than trying to resurrect party members I prefer to just take the party wipe, as the DP can usually be worked off quickly.
