GW2. Power Soulbeast PvP Build. Roamer Ranger PvP.
Last Update: September 2024
Ranged Variant
The Power Soulbeast is a high damage Roamer ranger PvP build with the ability to do its burst from afar. While it is one of the less mobile roamers it has great sustain and access to stealth with the smokescale F2 smoke cloud and Greatsword 3 Leap.
“Sic ‘Em” is a huge damage boost to your pet, but since soulbeasts become their pet when merged, sic ’em will buff you while you merge with the pet. Use this buff in combination with One Wolf Pack to buff up your big Rapid Fire bursts.
Ranged Burst Combo:
- Smokescale Merge > Warhorn 4 > One Wolf Pack > “Sic ‘Em!” > Swap
- Longbow 4 > 2 > F2
Melee Burst Combo:
- Owl Merge > F1 > Eternal Bond F4 > Sword 3 > 2 > Smokescale Merge F3 > Unmerge > F1
After performing the ranged and melee burst, you can reenter stealth to wait for cooldowns and your next burst.
Stealth Combo:
- Unmerge > Swap to Smokescale > F2 > Sword 2/3 > Warhorn 5
The ideal rotation would be Stealth Combo > Ranged Burst > Melee Burst > Stealth Combo

Melee Variant
For less of a Roamer but more of a DPS oriented version, replacing the Longbow with Maces. Being a fully melee build means you can’t chase kills as easily, but you also aren’t countered by projectile blocks in team fights, allowing you to stick to your targets provided you are supported by your allies as well.
Both pets merged abilities are great for comboing with your burst. Prelude Lash is the perfect tool for landing your burst. After using a gap closer or CC try to land any of your big weapon burst skills, so try to alternate between them.
Gap Closers: Sword 3, Sword 2, Smokescale F2
CC: Sword 3, Mace 3, Mace 5, Prelude Lash
Burst: Sword 2, Mace 5, Worldly Impact
Example Burst:
- Unmerged Smokescale F1> Warhorn 5 > 4 > Merge
- F2 > Sword 3 > 2 > F3 > Swap Pet and Weapon
- Merged Polar Bear F3 > Mace 5 > 3 > 4 > 2 > Refresh Mace
- Mace 3 > 2 > 4 > 5
