GW2. WvW Build. Power Marksmanship Daze Druid Roaming Build. Druid. Ranger World vs World 2023.
Last Update: Feb 2023
Overview
The Marksmanship Daze druid uses the Dragon’s stats to get lots of sustain and burst damage while making up for the lack of precision with the Opening Strike and Remorseless traits triggered whenever you gain fury. There are many ways to lock down your opponent to ensure that your burst damage lands with Ancient Seeds and Natural Conversion for immobilize as well as long dazes from Glyph of Equality and Lunar Impact.
Synergy
The Moment of Clarity trait and Paralyzation sigil will stack your stun and daze durations, making Lunar Impact daze for an extremely long duration. Because your CC duration are so long it is also very easy to trigger Ancient Seeds by hitting them once while they are CCed for even more lock down. Be careful not to reveal yourself with the binding roots from Ancient Seeds because they can hit targets while you’re stealthed. The regeneration from shouts heals you and your pet over time, giving plenty of Astral Force to constantly go in and out of Celestial Avatar to survive.
Playstyle
Use the Glyph of Equality, Longbow 4, Lunary Impact, Greatsword 5, or either of your pets to land a CC. Then immobilize with Ancient Seeds by landing any attack (preferably ranged damage) and continue to pile on more CC to prevent them from cleansing the immobilize. While you are doing your greatsword burst you can have your pet CC, and Natural Convergence is great for extending the Immobilize duration on enemies already stuck in your binding roots.

Hi there,
very nice build, do u think celestial gear works also in this build?
just a bit more healing and lower dmg
thx cu Talonia
crusader gear is better if you want healing, no point wasting stats on celestial
I want to learn druid so bad but I’m having a hell of a time learning the muscle memory to execute on this.
Any advice?
rebind your F5 to something convenient since you want to be doing big combos when entering CA
Do you prefer the staff or longbow?
Is the trait line the same if you choose staff vs LB?
Yes
