GW2. WvW Build. Power Combo Untamed Roaming Build. Ranger World vs World.

Last Update: October 2023
Overview
The 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 combos with the pet.
This variant can perform very well but might be better with a small group setup, for solo the Longbow variant will be more versatile.
The Remorseless trait grants Opening Strike when gaining fury, which increases the next attack’s damage by 25% and makes it 100% critical. Fury is gained when swapping pets or landing any disable. This means you should generally use CC skills like Hammer 3 and 5 while not unleashed, Greatsword 5, and Greatsword 4’s counter-attack; if these land, go into your heavy hitting abilities Unleashed Hammer 2/5 and Greatsword 2.
Example Combos:
Stealth: Smokescale F2 > Unleash Pet > F2 > Hammer 5 > Swap > Greatsword 3
Opener 1: Unleashed Smokescale > F1/F2/F3 > Unleash Ranger > F3 > F1 > Hammer 5 > 2
Opener 2: Unleashed Smokescale > F1/F2/F3 > Hammer 5 + Unnatural Traversal > Unleash Ranger > Hammer 2 > Swap > Greatsword Ambush > Greatsword 2
Finisher: Unleash Ranger > Greatsword 5 + Unnatural Traversal > Swap to River Drake > Greatsword 2 + F3

Longbow Gameplay:
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 ! 😉
