Hello. This Class Awakening Rangers has seen some of the hardest nerfs any class ever could see. Like awakening Nova with the difference Ranger never was as strong as Nova.

The recent top 100 of AoS are empty of Rangers, yet still we get more nerfs with every change.

Stamina.

Since Ranger is hard struggeling to recover any stamina during a fight, there needs to be a skill to recover.

-allow stamina recovering while using Evasive Explosion Shot.

-lower the cooldown from Wind Explosion Shot from 20 seconds to 10 seconds.

Grab.

since the Grabchanges this skill is a joke. The unprotected casttime is way to long. Way longer than any other class.

Lahns and other Range-grab-classes are able to grab me while im casting my grab. Who was responsible for this change???

As a class doing its damage via CC-combos for 80% of the time, we needed that fast and precise Grab to counterplay SA spammers. Now its a tool to suicide at best.

-speed up the initial Grabanimation or make the whole thing Superarmor.

Movement.

Supposed to be an agile and fast class, even your Guardians Granny can catch up to us. We cant chase, we cant get out of groupfights. And everything costs stamina.

-increase Movement Speed by 20% for 3 seconds when using Wind Step.

-Breezy Blade and Rushing Wind follows the Direction of the Players Camera.

-increase the traveldistance from Breezy Blade, Flow: Rushing Wind and Evasive landing Shot by 30%

CC.

Awakening Rangers only protected CC is a wet joke and then we have our Core skill like everyone else. So we need more protected CCs in this meta where everyone tossing around protected multihit CCs.

-make Bound effect from Spirit's Haven work in PvP as well.

This should be a good change and not even close to what Golden Child Classes get for weeks now.

EDIT: reworked

While this spec is not meta, it is not weak. There are way more specs that are much weaker than this. This spec is good where it's at if not still stronger than most competitive classes. Meta classes are a whole level of course but by no means this class is not weak in PVP. 

Yeah because being too squishy to stay in a fight for more than 30 seconds but not having the movement or stamina or sustain to reset a fight definitely isn't a problem. Not having the capacity to do damage outside of a CC while having one of the worst grabs in the game post grab changes, despite being a class completely centered around the grab, definitely isn't a problem either.

I hope that awk ranger gets finally some buffs without the mindgames of getting showered by nerfs and get compansated with couple of questionable buffs, just to get nerfed agan 2-3 weeks again and be stuck with net negative value from the  whole process like 4th years in a roll.  A lot was taken away from this class.

The statement of not being meta, but not weak would have been correct 2-3 years ago. Changes that happens this april, showed that the class designer is out of touch with ranger awk by removing our last safe stam regen skill and a whole lot more just to add sa to vine knot /og skills had sa, but was removed 7-8 years ago, when classes were balanced not to have too much protection/ Funny enough it coz 250 stam just to jump in air for 1 hit cc and mini dmg, compared to losing cc to ees.

I would like to hear the way more specs weaker than awk ranger, coz thats really vague statment. This classes excells only for 1 v 1 and it is unplayble in largescale . By with todays meta and req skill, it is below avg due not able to chase and stamina astma.

To note only nerf that happened since april to meta classes was few mini slaps on the wrist to awk sage, succ hash and awegu, which didn't impact anything. To be said it even got worse with grab nerfs affecting short range grabs the most ,while long range...stayed the same.  The classes that benefited most from this are meta iframe/sa teleporters. 

I wish meta classes got nerfed, but nothing has been done against them or the dp.sa meta.

While I don't play large scale, but I can tell you this, succession sage and succession valks are way more underpowered in small scale and 1v1. In AoS ranking, you can see a good balance of awakened and succession rangers. Granted this may have been a few months ago but having faced them in a succession sage, between ranger and sage in the specified spec, sage is free kill. While valk may stand a better chance, ranger with it's mobility is still the winner.  Looking at the sample size in the valkyrie, there are 3 succession spec in the list. Under sage there is 2. Kit wise, if you struggle with awake ranger vs succession sage, I don't know what to tell you. Succession sage you are mostly like a statue and can only be viable if you can fly under the radar when everyone is busy to chip and get hits. Once you are focused, the stamina drains like no tomorrow as the movements are very short and 7 sec cd for rift chain is too brutal. Some calls awake maehwa is in the same bucket but I cannot speak to that. I have faced awake rangers in AoS and can tell their damage and kits seem to be pretty good with how quickly they could evade and get back and punish you once your stamina and protection rotation has been exhausted.

Let me also add, most of succession sage forward guards are FG while casting, to which if you animation cancel them, you don't get FG, but if you don't they are slow AF. Whereas in awake ranger, they are either FG or FG during skill. There is a massive difference. There are also a few more invincible while moving or invincible -> super armor. I am sorry but the kits on this spec is good enough in my opinion whereas others are severely lacking.

I'll just leave this here.

I would like to note that succ sage is menanace, even after it got nerfed due the sa/iframe + aoe dmg pumping it had. only reason you do not see it as much is due awk sage being top 2 most broken spec ingame. Sage was never a free kill, which means you either just casually play pvp on aos or not at all.  I can only take succ valk in consideration, but it is same issue as sage. Awk valk is giga strong large scale as utility dp tank /last season we had 4 awk valks in aos, mostly because most people play meta/.  

In regards maewha, she is good, but succ maewha is way better atm. It feels like you have never rolled anything except meta classes.

Have even tried awk ranger?

This is lazy posting and out of context,. You do not really bring anything to the topic. 

the thing is, im not going to start discussions with pve players. if you are going to loose against awakening Rangers on basically any class, you fight against a much better player.

First of all it was not out of context, the author in every post for classes/spec he would post this, yet here we are him with a class that is performing better than others and he is asking for buffs/qol changes. I will also address his post here as well, seriously are you both just rage baiting and also fake raging? Are you sure you play PVP? You in an awake ranger having issues killing a succession sage 1v1? He is a menace in damage sure if you can land a hit. SA iframe you say? Since rift-chain cd was changed from 4 sec to 7 secs, that's been long gone. This spec was nerfed to the ground long time ago, are you with the times? The reason it's seem strong in large scale is because everyone is really not paying attention to 1 class that just comes in, drops damage and then kite away and repeat. For one it's not sustainable for it to be in the ball of the fight, you have limited escape, minimal protection and no sustain. You have this belief that it is strong because the opposite spec for it is way overtuned. Succession is no where near, and even in AoS practice, how many succession you face against in a day? If you lose to a succession sage in 1v1, you need to buff your hands instead.

people with hands play awakening sage, because why would they choose the worse spec that plays the same. teleport in, drop damage as you said. and no one cares about one dead succ spec if awa spec is alright. especially on a class that dominated last aos season.

Awakening Rangers is one of the worst performing classes in any PvP activity. Its a miracle how classes with tons of teleports and protected CCs still loosing to it.
