I've never been a fan of the beast master ranger, but with recent/upcoming buffs I got thinking of a fairly high dps build, let me know what you think.
All skill points in Beast Mastery & Expertise
Weapon set: Staff with +15 e or +17 e off hand & weapon/wand combo etc.
Charm Animal
Comfort Animal
Call of Haste
Predatory Bond
Enraged Lunge {E}
Perdator's Pounce
Whirling Defense (throw dirt)
Rebirth/rez sig
Edit: Removed Beta skills and replaced with Predatory Bond and Call of Haste. This build is now far less effective and not worth discussing.
BeastMaster Build, thoughts?

Are all of those Call's suggestions? Or are they on a list somewhere?

As far as I know they are upcoming skills:
http://guildwars.gameamp.com/guildwars/skill/0.php!class=5
They are listed as Beta so I'm not sure what they will be come Oct. 15th.

I think those are skills from the original GW beta, and have since become attacks, or have been removed.

Only 2 call skills remain, Call of Haste and Call Od Protection.

Predatory Bond is very useful in any BM build 'cause it's your only way of healing.
Call of Haste can't be overlooked too, a constant IAS and another long recharging skill for your Enraged Lounge...
With Nightfall I would add Poisonous Bite and Toxicity.

I roll a pet/barrage build geared towards beastmaster, but we both do great damage.
16 beast, 9 expertise, 11 marksmanship
zealous endgame green flatbow
charm
comfort
brutal strike
predator pounce
feral lunge
call of haste
call of protection
barrage
My spider can tank and dish out massive damage with this. Also, zealous + barrage is great energy management. One of my main aims was to still be functional with a bow, which Barrage alone allows. I love this build and can't wait to tweak it and make it even better in Nightfall.
P.S No self heal needed.... my pet tanks all the damage with call of prot. and comfort animal. With the range of the flatbow, I never have to enter the aggro circle and can avoid damage easily.

If your interested, go over to the farming board and look around for my beastmastery farming build. It works great for solo and modded slightly can be a good team player.
