GW2. Raid Build. Condition DPS Untamed. Ranger PvE 2023.
Last Update: Jan 2023
Overview
The Condition Untamed is a DPS build with high actions per minute because whenever it does a CC it recharges all of its skills slightly, allowing you to spam the very high damage Splitblade axe skill.
Playstyle
Role: DPS 
The Fervent Force trait will reduce all cooldowns by 4 seconds after disabling an enemy, even if they are defiant enemies (but stability does prevent this from triggering). This allows you to constantly refresh your condition applying skills with disables like Exploding Spores, Axe 4, and Storm Spirit’s active.
The Axe 2 Splitblade is the most important skill in the rotation because it does some hefty damage and its cooldown is low enough that any CC will fully recharge it, allowing it to be used often. Also remember that some of the CC skills have delays so you may want to precast them before your Axe 2, allowing two casts of the Axe 2 in a row with the right timing. Because the rotation can be so reliant on the CCs landing, it is a punishing build to play, but with some quick thinking on these priorities you can recover and resume dealing damage:
- Sharpening Stone/F1/F2/F3
- Entangle
- Unleash Ranger and use Axe Ambush
- Axe 2 (melee) /Axe3
- Axe 4
- Exploding Spores
- Storm Spirit
- Weapon Swap (Geomancy Sigil)
- “We Heal as One!” to buff your pet while waiting for cooldowns
Example Rotation:
- Entangle > Unleash Ranger > Axe Ambush 1
- Unleash Pet > “We Heal as One!” > F1/2/3
- Axe 2 > 3 > 4 > Exploding Spores > Axe 2 > Swap Weapon
- Axe 2 > 3 > 4 > Storm Spirit Activation > Axe 2
