GW2. WvW Build. Power Combo Untamed Roaming Build. Ranger World vs World.
Last Update: February 2024
The Power Combo Untamed is a ranger build for WvW roaming with high burst and mobility. It can combine manual control of the pet’s positioning through ports/pet swapping with CC to land massive burst damage alongside the pet.
The Remorseless trait grants Opening Strike when gaining fury, which increases your and your pet’s next attack’s damage by 25% and makes it 100% critical chance. Prefer to use this on hard hitting single attacks like the Greatsword 2 or the Longbow Ambush to get the most value out of it. Fury is gained when swapping pets, or landing any CC. This means you should generally use CC skills, and if these land follow up with your heavy hitting abilities.
Ambush skills will be available on your 1 skill for each weapon when unleashing yourself, but also due to the Let Loose trait they will become available after swapping weapon, so prioritize using these after swapping weapons. Since the Longbow Ambush skill hits hard, you can use the Longbow 4 knockback as a disable that triggers the fury for your Remorseless and then cast the Ambush.
Basic Combos:
Unleash Ranger > Longbow 4 > Ambush > 2
Unleash Ranger > Unnatural Traversal > Greatsword 5 > Pet Swap > GS 2 > F3 > GS Ambush
Stealth: Smokescale F2 > Unleash Pet > F2 > Greatsword 3
When you fit these basic combos into a rotation they can look more like this:
Opener 1: Unleashed Smokescale > F1/F2/F3 > Unleash Ranger > F3 > F1 > Unnatural Traversal > Greatsword 5 > Swap Pet > GS 2 > Drake F3 > Greatsword Ambush
Opener 2: Unleashed Smokescale > F1/F2/F3 > Unleash Ranger > Longbow 4 > Ambush > F3 > F1 > LB 2 > 3 > Swap Weapon > Greatsword 3 > Swap Pet > Greatsword Ambush > Swap Pet > Greatsword 2 > Drake F3

I’ve played both versions and both are really fun to play and more resilient that what I though tbh…. (It’s a high risk high reward build…. But when you make it work is really rewarding!)
However I still struggle to consistently do the double hammer 5 leap, is there any trick or tip to do it or just practice timing because at this point I’ve tried and sometimes happen and sometimes not and would be handy to know if I’m missing something
Thanks!!!!
you need to press unleash and the hammer 5 before the first hammer 5 animation finishes
Thank you!! 🙂
Great content (both of you) by the way ! 😉
