The PvXwiki community finds this to be a good build. If you disagree with this rating, please discuss it on the build's talk page. This build has been designed for the following use: |
The Vengeful Raptor build combines the powerful restoration of a ritualist as well as its life stealing to solo farm the raptor nestlings cave in Hard Mode, while constantly maintaining energy and avoiding interrupts. KEEP IN MIND this build CANNOT solo the boss group. Total count will be 24 raptors, 1 raptor shy of the asuran bonus, although if brave enough you can sometimes kill off 1 raptor from the boss group to earn the bonus.
