I have a question for those of you who run FoW. I am a ranger and I'm trying to learn how to run an EoE build for FoW. However I am never able to join any groups in FoW because I am new to the FoW grouping world and no one wants to teach someone how to become good in FoW that I've found so I've come here asking for your help. I would like to know what a good ranger does in FoW, what the build/builds look like and how the best way you have found to use them. I will show you the two builds that I have come up with but that no one seems to like and please let me know what is wrong with them. I say that not complaining but because I actually seek the knowledge to know why they don't work. The first build is as follows:
Signet of Spirits/Vampirism/Bloodsong/Pain/Shadowsong/Edge of Extinction/Painful Bond/Summon Spirits. Attributes: Beast Mastery 4+3/Expertise 8/Communing 10/Channeling Magic 12.
The second build is as follows: Barrage/Splinter Weapon/Distracting Shot/Edge of Extinction/Pain Inverter/Flesh of my flesh/Troll Unguent/Dryder's Defenses. Attributes: Beast Mastery 9, Expertise 10, Wilderness Survival 5, Marksmanship 11, Channeling Magic 8.
Thank you for the input.

Thank you. That helped with knowing how to go about running in FoW which I most usuradly needed however I'm not sure how to mod that rit/ranger build to fit me. When i say mod it I mean with the attributes.

As an EoE, all you really need to do is make sure EoE in range on spikes while also keeping up splinter weapon on the physicals. Only tricky part is the griffons quest. Just remember though that if you ping a target this is make the griffons follow you, so use this to your advantage.
Happy hunting

Well, by looking at the Rt/R:

Channeling Magic: 12 + 1 + 3

Beast Mastery: 12

Spawning Power: 3


I would say for the R/Rt:

Channeling Magic: 12

Beast Mastery: 12 +1 + 3

Expertise: 3

Or bring some points from BM to Expertise if you run out of energy too fast. You'll find out soon enough.

Exactly why Anet's devs should hang their heads in shame....

Thanks for the code Big Man. I looked it up and it seems very similar to my first build but that is me. I will however try it and see if it works. Thank you for the help by looking it up. I didn't find anything like that when I was on PVXwiki.
