Hey Guys. Mabe this has been discussed, but i did a search and I dont see a build I'm thinking about anywhere in this forum.
I have a ranger/mesmer, and I made him primarily for PvP. He's lev20 now. Finally
I'm trying to make a ranger/mesmer using a very high degeneration rate on enemies + high damage on single shot. Something that uses conjure phantasm, phantom pain, crippling anguish, mantra of persistance. (any combo of these)
Can a ranger build using any of these skills be descent in PvP?? Can you give any examples?? Off course I know that in order to be very good with degen I must go with Mesmer primary. But I'm trying to do somth with what I currently have. Please help.
P.S: oh and yes. I know that I cannot cause more than 10 degen. thank you.
Also, if you have a better suggestion for a ranger/mesmer build, and u think that degen is not so good, please share the info.
Honestly I'm trying to figure out a build that cant EASILY be countered by ANYONE, or at least most. I heared I can be easily countered by high level healing breeze and/or hex breaker. This is not acceptable. does anyone know a build that is harder to stop????

Be a Mesmer/Ranger instead of a R/Me, you won't have the energy pool to cast all those spells. Also, do not opt for Incendiary Arrows for degen.

Put distracting shot in your build... And there will be no healing breeze. 
(at least in arena where you rarely face more than two monks).

err degen with a ranger is pretty simple. especially on a warrior, just pin them down, hunters shot, poison arrow, then another form of degen of your choice, be it conjure or disease

w/e u do don't do that, Me/R do no dmg with the bow and that should be 1 of your main focus'.. if you want degen then knock yourself out but u can get -10 degen or -9 degen in 2 skills so that's not your main focus.. my R/Me20 is godly,
not telling u exact attributes but i will give skills
he upgrades =
Marksmanship (HIGH) (preferably 15 or 16)
Illusion (high)
Expertise (medium)
Wilderness Survival (medium)
He gives -9 Degen but focuses on interupts too, he's anti caster but deals good dmg with high marksmanship
he uses =
Migraine {E}
Arcane Conundrum
Conjure Phantasm
Distracting Shot
Apply Poison
Power Leak (or u cud add inspiration to build and use power drain)
Pin Down
Resurection Signet
First i put Migraine and Arcane Conundrum on the Monk (they stack i've tested) making them cast 4x slower then when they use 1 of there main skills like healing touch or mend ailment use distracting shot to disable it for 20 seconds then the next thing they cast use power leak, by this time the 16 marksmanship will have killed him

Well, you could go degen/condition spam, just stick on poison, bleeding, crippled, and blindness cauusing attacks, and add epidemic, you could give monks a really hard time.
