Default R/w ab

The other day while playing an AB a single R/W comes and wipes my party. He was using a sword and a pet with skills such as heal as one, run as one ,poisonous bite, and then some warrior ones to cause multiple conditions. Does anyone know where I can find this build because it seems quite good.

How many were in your party (full four, I'm guessing) and what Professions? The Ranger should have been taking a dirt nap, not the 4 of you...

Not sure I would admit that my team got owned by 1 person. I don't think you should spend too much time copying their skill bar and invest some thought in improving yours.

beast master rangers are generally bad specially when there going for condition spreading. a single ranger shoudnt have been able to overpower 4 people, i would suggest you focus on you and your party members skills and builds instead of copying a fairly bad build.

Was the Ele Shrine already capped by your team or was the Shrine capped by the opposing Faction?

Case 1, something is wrong; you had up to 3 NPC Elementalists Air Spiking a single target (with KD and massive dmg potential), along with the 4 of you... I don't think this is possible with a Beast Ranger, [[Heal as One] wouldn't have saved him.

Case 2, it was the enemy NPC Elementalists' Air Spikes that killed you, the Pet Ranger was scenery... this is probably what happened; a Beast Ranger that is built for spreading conditions doesn't have enough damage or healing to take down 4 opposing players.

Don't copy builds, copying is bad

Here's what you do for future reference in AB when a big scary R/W is about to come in and pet attack you to death:
KITE from him, swords can't hit long distances, contrary to popular belief. It's fine to get the build he was using to examine it's chaining process and develop a counter-strike plan to understand it further, but don't just succumb to every "good" build that comes your way

Just because your 4 man team got wiped by a single foe is not indictive that they had a good build. I would suggest you look into your own skill bar or play tactics.

Obviously the ranger knew what he was doing and your team didn't, otherwise your builds lack greatly/ or your teammates and you don't know how to use the chosen professions. Or you were wrong about what the ranger used for his build when really he was using a new Exotic R/W build that just so happens to own groups of four with the exact same skills your team possesed.
