The only problem I have found with a bestmaster build is that there seems to be a lack of healing/health-regen.

I mean, I use Predatory Bond but it is not brilliant.

I would use Companionship, however, I do not have GWEN.

Any suggestions (other than, do not use a Beast build)

Have you tried Heal As One? It's an elite, so you won't be able to take Enraged Lunge or anything like that, but I don't think Enraged Lunge is that necessary for a BM build anyway. Heal As One is a lot better than Companionship. I do recommend getting GW:EN anyway if you get the chance, though, because Feral Aggression is a must, imo. Anyway, between Heal As One and Predatory Bond, that should be all the healing you need, but if you're still hurting, you might try bringing an Expertise stance.

Heya. I'm a Monk.
Learn to kite, don't fill your bar with crappy self-heals, and do some real disruption/damage; and I'll worry about the red bar. kk?

Yeah, I agree with Stormlord - I do feel that a BeastMaster build relies quite heavily on a Monk, especially without Heal-As-One and Companionship.

Right now:

1. Read The Wind
2. Penetrating Attack
3. Predatory Bond (The best BM healing I can do RIGHT NOW)
4. Feral Lunge
5. Scavenger Strike
6. Viper's Nest
7. Comfort Animal
8. Charm Animal

14 BeastMastery
12 Marksmanship
8 Expertise

I am considering upping Expertise and thus taking some off of Marksmanship. I do need to get more Attrib Points as I am a newish level 20. Therefore, I need to do some quests for that.

Having tested it out I am doing pretty nice damage - My bow generally hits for 40-80 with my pet hitting for 40-70.

I do not know how to find out what my DMG per Second is, however.

Out on the Nameless Isles, outside the Great Temple of Balthazar (PvP zone), there's a Master of Damage, somewhere.
Keep whacking on him and he'll tell you how much damage you do.

I am wondering if any of you know something similar to Companionship?

Or is healAsOne the only other one as good?
