GW2. Best Open World Builds. Untamed. Ranger PvE.

Last Update: October 2023
Overview
This Untamed build uses quickness and disables to play very aggressively in melee range to burst while targets are locked down. In Greatsword rotate between Maul (2) and any CC including GS 3 inside the Wyverns Lightning Field, and in Hammer use 4/2 while unleashed and 5/3 while not unleashed. Use all of the F1/2/3 abilities on your pet while it is unleashed. Swapping weapons recharges your Ambush ability, and doing your Ambush (1) will grant quickness
Skill Priorities: Use CC skills to disable enemies and to potentially gain Moment of Clarity/Remorseless to improve the damage of your heaviest hitting skills. Then use those heavy hitters, and repeat.
- Damaging Skills: Greatsword 2, Unleashed Hammer 2/4/5
- CC: Greatsword 4/5, Hammer 3, GS 3 + Wyvern F2, Exploding Spores
- Pet: While Pet is Unleashed use all F1/2/3 instantly, otherwise use the CC from Smokescale F1 and Wyvern F3

Do you have any alternative suggestion for sigil of impact/paralyization? Its pretty costly for me.
air sigil or blood
Thank you for this. Any possible ranged options with Axe/SB/LB for the Untamed? Or would you recommend just going back to Core or Soulbeast for ranged?
Soulbeast is much better for a ranged type build. Untamed works better with a melee playstyle.
Can you update the build, it’s a lot of fun to play it even tho untamed isn’t the best ranger spec. So they say 😀
it is updated
