I'm a ranger elementalist and my class build is
Wilderness Survival 10
Marksmanship 14 (normally 10 but 1 with mask and 3 with rune)
Fire Magic 11

My Skills for PvE
Kindle Arrows
Troll Unugent
Poison Arrow - Elite
Penetrating Attack
Fire Storm
Fire Ball
Inferno
Ressuraction Signet (sometimes Power Shot)

I wonder if it's ok and if it's not why'd you offer?

And my pvp build (just as a Ranger)
Kindle Arrows
Troll Unugent
Poison Arrow - Elite
Penetrating Attack
Power Shot
Savage Shot (sometimes Barbed Trap)
Healing Spring
Ressuraction Signet

You have no Expertise, so how do you manage your energy?

Also, why do you bring so many fire spells? You want to play as a nuker? Energy is the problem again if you want to play as a nuker.

I would probably drop some attribute points from fire and add some to expertise and bring conjure flame to combo with kindle arrows.

In pve it's really helpful that u take fire spells with you. I have 26 energy and it's ok for me. I cast firestorm on the mob party and start shooting with kindle arrows. and if they are staying together i cast fireball on them (the energy is enough because the casting time o firestorm is too much so i got 4 energy regen).

How much point u think i should drop from Fire Magic ? ( I will use minor FiRe MaGiC RuNe Then)

PvE: I'd ditch the whole firestorm+fireball thing. Mark of rodgort+fiery bowstring+poison arrow=nice constant -10degen. Or you could take barrage for multiple targets. I'd do as someone else suggested too and add conjure flame.

This is my general all around PvE build:

Expertise 11
Marksmanship 16
Fire/Air/Water Magic 8 (depends on what area im in and what the enemies are weak against if anything)
Thats with hat and runes of course. base its 10 12 8 respectively.

1. Barrage
2. Penetrating Shot
3. Dual Shot
4. Distracting Shot
5. Concussion Shot
6. Wirling Defense
7. Conjure Flame/Lightning/Frost depends on the area
8. Res Sig (dont leave home wothout it kids )

The build is for maximum versatility. When our group gets to the area I look around and see whats needed and then do it. Big clustered mob i use barrage, healing enemies i interrupt and then spike them with pen and dual. If something is on the mushier casters i try to draw the aggro and toss up wirling.and i try to keep conjure up as much as possible. Basically i try to be as helpful in any given situation as possible.

i think its sad when a ranger or a warrior brings moves like fire storm and flare to try and use it in pve, but w.e suites u there is fine i guess, you dont need an uber build to play pve, but if your lookin like a nuker wannabe no one is gunna pay any respect

anyway for ur pvp builds its a decent build, run of the mill damage dealing ranger. you'll put up decent dps but i dont think u'd really threatin a monk at all. and i would always take distracting over savage, much more useful against signets in arenas and disables the skill, in any 8v8 it doesnt matter as much tho, but its also better if u wanna keep skills constantly deactivated. but it looks like you've only gotten as far as droks, you'll have access to better skills later

your PvE build is trash. You need expertise...it's the single best attribute in the game. It makes energy mangement as a ranger as easy as possible. I also wouldn't suggest a Fire Ele as your secondary mana costs are too high. If you wanna utilize the elementalist class use it for the armor spells.

Also. You don't need troll ungeont for PvP...your healer should be able to handle your health. Troll ungeont takes too long to cast to be effective. As a ranger you should be able to rattle off spells quickly. Also healing spring is a junk ass skill. Remove those two and replace them with interupts and that build would be useable.
