Infiltrator

Inquisitor + Nightblade

A Dual Wield Cold ranger with a huge focus in every skill that provides cold damage. The main damage skill is Chilling Rounds which is maxed out with this build. This build can reduce enemy cold resistances and take advantage of that fact with dealing huge amounts of cold damage in return. With this build, you are very hard to kill, not only with you healing potions, but you have a total of 3 other skill that provide healing on top of it.

Any skill that provides cold damage or cold resistance debuff is the primary focus in this build. Chilling Rounds will be a big part of the damage we do, that skill will end up being maxed with the gear choices selected. While there is not specific starting class, I recommend Inquisitor since we want to progress it’s mastery bar to 50, and unlock dual wielding pistols early on. Once we unlock out second class, start putting points into it as soon as possible to unlock its skills to build on the total damage of the build. This build also includes 3 total healing ability, which at later levels, also provide some nice damage increases. Word of Renewal, Pneumatic Burst and Inquisitor Seal. Amarasta’s Blade Burst is another source of immense damage that this build can provide. This build works very well solo, but can also provide a very strong damage support in group play.

While there is no definite “starting class”, if you want to dual wield as early as possible, starting with the Inquisitor class is going to be your best choice. Word of Renewal will be used as our secondary healing option. Chilling Rounds while normally would be maxed out at 10, with the gear choices below, we only need 7 to reach maximum. Inquisitor seal can be chosen based on playstyle. Just a couple of points in it’s tree to help with health regen and some extra damage. Aura of Censure is chosen for a small increase in elemental damage and reducing the resistances of our enemies to all elemental damage we do.

If you want to start focusing in cold damage as soon as possible, start with the Nightblade. Night’s Chill is a very strong debuff ability to reduce enemy resistance to cold damage, while doing cold damage itself. Amarasta’s Blade Burst will be our right mouse button ability for its very high cold damage ability. Pneumatic Burst is another healing skill to help with our survivability, while the later skills in the tree, further add more damage to our build. A couple passive abilities help with our build and damage. Lastly, Phantasmal Blades helps with crowd control on enemies with light bleeding damage and further cold damage.
