Suggested builds (also see full list below and specific beginner build versions): If you're missing the living story (mainly Season 3 episode 3, A Crack in the Ice, Season 4 Episode 6, War Eternal, or Episode 1 / 2 of The Icebrood Saga) you'll have a harder time getting trinkets that are not berserker so that may factor into your choice as well.Įvery elite specialization will also require an expansion so make sure you have the right one for the build you want. When starting out I do suggest gearing a power DPS but with the selectable gear options it's much easier to get armor of most types (EoD stats like ritualist are more limited). ![]() On some bosses you can run a boon Daredevil build to provide all boons besides alacrity to 5 targets each and replace normal quickness/might sources for more damage and boons. If they can, groups will also want ranger spirit buffs and warrior banners since they apply to the full group and are fairly large buffs. Supports and healers usually end up tanking, builds that have extra blocks, evades, or sustain can make this easier. Groups will usually consist of 4 boon builds to cover quickness, alacrity, and might (plus others) on the group (quickness, alacrity, and 25 might in each group of 5). A standard setup for a normal raid group is to split the squad of 10 into 2 groups of 5 (most boons and buffs are limited to 5 targets). Many bosses also have aggro based on the highest toughness so those fights have a "tank" that draws the boss’s aggro. The main roles can be broken up into DPS (power/condition damage), Support (Boons/Buffs), and Healing with many builds covering 2 of these roles. Proper gear (exotics to start out, see gear section).If you're having trouble, look for a "Hero Point Train"/"HP Train" in LFG, ask your guild or map chat for help, or take a look at the guides for PoF/ HoT. Heart of Thorns has some hero points that are intended to be done with a group of 3-5, but Path of Fire and End of Dragons are more forgiving aimed at 1-2 players. The best places to get Hero points are the expansion maps, a single hero point there is worth 10 points instead of 1. In almost every case you will be expected to unlock an elite specialization by getting an additional 250 hero points (any that you got from a map count towards this number).HoT unlocks wings 1-4 and Path of Fire unlocks wings 5-7. ![]() Heart of Thorns is now included for free if you own Path of Fire so get PoF on sale if you're missing it. ![]() Otherwise here is what you will need to raid: If you're just starting out focus on story and exploration. Also see my new player guide for more info and guides.įirst off know that you shouldn't try to rush into raids, it's always better to get a feel for the game, your profession, and combat first.
