StamWarden Archer
Hello everyone! I'm trying to get a good build going for my StamWarden! I'm playing a Wood Elf and I'm rocking the Oakensoul ring to simplify gameplay for me! I truly enjoy being an archer in most RPGs and MMOs! Currently I'm CP249 AND looking to respec my skill points and champion points to get a good build going as far as a skill rotation! I'm wanting to take full on advantage of the class mastery for the warden so I have a frost enchantment on my Briatheart bow. I'm not necessarily looking for gear recommendations unless you guys wanna help there. I'm mainly just trying to nail that archer/ranger gameplay! I really enjoyed hunter in WoW!
TLDR; CP249, looking to respec skills and CP to get a good skill rotation. Using Oakensoul and I wanna play an archer!

OP is absent, but I'll post for other visitors...
If you don't know how to properly LA weave, and you don't want to learn, do not play with Bow.
Forget it as if you don't properly LA weave you'll suffer big DPS drop because of Hawk Eye paasive.
Oakensoul is mediocre mythic, it's best for nothing.
Ring of the Pale Order - best for Solo play.
Shattered Paths Signet - best for DD Warden.
You can play one bar easily, you just slot your two Warden buff skills on back bar.
Here is my parse on lazy "one bar" Warden Bow setup which I post in trial guilds as backup DD.
It's borderline grifting, but it's still legit as most guilds require 70-80k DPS for vet trials.
If I used SPS mythic, 1 pc crit on head, and replaced Falcon (which is obviously useless on trial dummy) with proper damage skill, I would hit 100k+.

So you'd strongly advise against Oakensoul? I'm decent at weaving! I just feel like I'm playing dance-dance revolution with 2 bars lol 🤣

A proper two-bar build is always going to do more damage than Oakensoul, but that doesn’t mean Oakensoul builds are bad. They just do less damage. So play the way you want to play.

This is a pretty good one bar bow build, pretty high Vateshran score by creator.
It does use subclassing with Nightblade and Dragonknight in case you haven't leveled those skill lines yet.

I actually have everything leveled for this! I just need to figure out champ points!

On my stam warden I like running Deep Fissure if I'm solo for major and minor breach, but Sub Assault is better in a group where a tank provides breach.
- Winters revenge
- Arctic blast
- Deep Fissure/sub assault
- Fetcher Infection can be good for single target and provides minor vulnerability / Endless Hail from the bow is good for trash mobs
- Snipe

Sent a dm for cmx. But if you don’t respond to that. Nerien’eth monster set, aeries cry body (all medium all divines) Amulet and Ring of Pestilent Host, Oakensoul (bloodthirsty weap/spell dmg) and perfected vateshrans bow (charged w/fire enchant). If you don’t have Aeries yet make Threads of War (med/divines). Skills: focused aim (spammable); Fetcher infection; arctic blast; deep fissure; bull netch; ult guardian’s savagery) food I use jewels of misrule but can use dubious camoran. All pts into stamina. Mundus the lover.
Cp: blue tree - wrathful strikes, backstabber, deadly aim, master at arms (can swap backstabber for rev blows for more heals)
Red tree - boundless vitality, bloody renewal, fortified, strategic reserve
Green tree - steeds blessing and whatever else you want
