Incendiary SY-Opinions?

[Spike Stritter]

[The build;OgETcV8mVi14xQ1oC81QrIGEjDA]

[Sunspear Rebirth Signet] can be replaced by [Favorable Winds]

[Frenzy] is used to prove a constant IAS and because rangers are usually mid-lineish and have 70 armor so enemies TEND not to go for rangers. It also helps build SY faster

["Save Yourselves!"] is used because adrenaline is built up quickly and because its a reasonable skill to fill the slot with IMO.

Any ideas or changes i should make?

*If this build is already on PvX or in guru already, i apologize. This is a build i made up and did not check if there was a similair build

Using SY will make enemies target you since you will have the lowest AR when using SY.

[Rhamia Darigaz]

using [[frenzy] without a cancel stance is very brave but also very stupid.
either bring a cancel stance or, preferably, replace frenzy+cancel with [[lightning reflexes]+[[dwarven stability]

[Eragon Zarroc]

use [flurry], dmg reduction but not that big a deal

People say this but I've never actually noticed this phenomena.... Even so, if everyone else is safe they're free to prot your ass, it's easier to heal 1 ranger then having to heal everyone else.

Yeah, I suspect AI doesn't look at certain armor modifers when selecting targets, certainly skill-based armor boosts seem to be ignored.

I would absolutely get ebon battle standard on your or someone else's bar, that's the whole point of incendiary/ignite interaction. If you aren't running enchant heavy I like to run forked arrow, which you can alternate with incend. Add FGJ and you don't even need IAS.

do the changes you made make up for the loss of [distracting shot] and [savage shot]

[MaedTur]

As an alternative approach, I've started experimenting with Infuriating Heat + Triple Shot + Dual Shot and then some form of IAS to maintain enough adrenaline to keep Save Yourselves going permenantly. You can have a rit hero drop Soothing to make sure only allies benefit from Infuriating Heat.

As an added benefit another player character could also bring SY and not need to bring any adrenaline buffs as Infuriating Heat will benefit them as well.

You could just dump the rez sig for dshot.

[technobabble] > both of those really.

And yeah infuriating heat is fun... it's not incendiary though. :p but it can pump SY pretty well.

[Aztec Mijo]

ooo, i run this setup

incendiary
disrupting
savage
apply poison
troll unguent
optional, ebon sin
optional, drunken master
save yourselves!

and yea, they target u but its so ez to heal a ranger with troll precast. this build rocks vs charr btw.

whoops. sorry. i forgot to mention that part. i use frenzy because i have no EOTN titles on this character. not having eotn titles has nothing to do with needing a cancel stance if you're going to use frenzy.

I use Frenzy mainly for an IAS not to fuel SY.


not having eotn titles has nothing to do with needing a cancel stance if you're going to use frenzy.
this is true. but what i meant was i dont use lightening reflexes + dwarven stab. becuase i dont have EOTN titles on this char.

From my experience, enemies don't really target you much. If they did, people would complain about the cracked armor from [Aggressive Refrain] more. I've run an imbagon for a good while and have rarely had enemies attack me.
