Preface[edit]

A bar I made long time ago for a friend who thought playing Ranger was hard. In fact, I made him a bar for every elite ranger skill there was back in the days (of Prophecies). I stumbled across hard elite skills such as Greater Conflagration, Marksman's Wager and eventually Ferocious Strike. Because pets were ridiculously slow at changing targets back in the early days of Guild Wars, I thought that combining a pet build with knockdowns would be effective in order to give the pet the time to get to your target. After testing the bar in Random Arenas a little, I concluded that it was pretty good and played the build casually in RA. About a year after, it became a super-popular meta-build that someone called "Bunny Thumper" and was quickly nerfed, which did not make my day.
