Build talk:R/Mo PvP May Apply Poison

The flux will end in 10 days. Actually, noone cares about vetting a build that will be archived or trashed in 10 days. And its not even meta. Chonsy Rulez  17:56, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
 * meh. But tbh, I'm not really seeing any huge advantage here for a ranger.  Energy management is fine as is, and all of the rangers utility isn't really buffed by this. Smitysmitehex.png I smite thee !!   on 18:44, March 20 2012 (UTC) 18:44, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
 * It's more so when the flux ends we can archive them and have them... well in the archives. And it does provide it's uses with 15 marks you do some serious damage, and you can spam like no tomorrow of course, saw it obsed on some guilds. Frostels 18:48, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
 * All meek builds shouldn't really have been vetted, their purpose served for one month only --  Shadow Step 18:51, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
 * That's incorrect. Flux builds should be vetted and archived. We don't know yet, but fluxes may repeat. A new misery  18:59, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I think they won't --  Shadow Step 20:34, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
 * That's a very convincing argument. We do document the meta, even if it only exists for 1 month before changing. If Fluxes don't repeat, oh well. There's certainly been shorter lived builds (Doomspike anyone?). -- Toraen   confer  21:52, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Okay, but that will mean overflooded archival. Well, anyway, many builds could've just been adapted for a month so that the flux existed on those build. Meek ranger? Variant the optionals listed on the meek build. Meek axe? Same deal. --  Shadow Step 21:59, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
 * So it was called Doomspike :O, I always wanted to know how the build really was. --  Shadow Step 22:01, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Overflooded archival is a non-issue. We aren't running out of space. Also, which axe and ranger build would you modify to represent the meek variant? All of them? If not all, how should we decide which one to use? It's much easier to use a separate page and then archive it for documentation. Also, just like the elite usually defines a PvP build, the lack of an elite to gain the flux benefits defines the build and its viability. -- Toraen   confer  22:07, 20 March 2012 (UTC)

That was quickly voted on :D --  Shadow Step 16:40, 21 March 2012 (UTC)

Even if the flux will repeat, GW2 will release before it repeats. I know its not a great motivation and that we should test build not considering the sequel is gonna be released in 5 months maximum, but in the case of meek builds it it just a waste of time. Just saying. Chonsy Rulez  16:04, 22 March 2012 (UTC) Reading the previous discussion is good. Please do so in the future. -- Toraen   confer  19:09, 22 March 2012 (UTC)
 * "We do document the meta, even if it only exists for 1 month before changing."
 * if this is the meta, should we add a meta tag? Smitysmitehex.png I smite thee !!  on 19:16, March 22 2012 (UTC) 19:16, 22 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Up to Frosty (edit: and other MCs) to decide, although I doubt this particular build is a significant part of the metagame, hence my edit summary. -- Toraen   confer  19:19, 22 March 2012 (UTC)
 * It's hard to say whether it's Meta, it's being used to a certain degree hence why I posted it, and it imo is a good/great build. Builds don't have to be meta to still be good/great though, those categories are filled with builds that see play every now and again but not enough to be meta. All be it this build will only survive until the end of the month. Frostels 08:44, 23 March 2012 (UTC)

Disrupting Shot
For Res Sigs etc?--&#32;Saxazaxx - IGN: Saxazax I (capital i) or Saxazax I I - (talk) 17:00, 16 May 2018 (UTC)
 * You use distracting on res sigs whenever possible. Savage has 5r so it's a better way to stall Res sigs when dshot is on recharge. Disrupting also has 3x the recharge of savage so it's not adding a lot to the interrupt potential of a ranger bar. If you really want to interrupt spam in RA you just run Magebane+Dshot+Savage (which is really a bit much, but wins RA pretty handily). -Toraen (talk) 08:10, 20 May 2018 (UTC)
