Beast Mastery
From Guild Wars Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search
Beast Mastery is a secondary attribute of rangers.
“Beast Mastery increases the damage dealt by your animal companion and its chance to inflict a critical hit. Many Ranger skills, especially those related to making your animal companion stronger, become more effective with higher Beast Mastery.
— in-game description
Inherent effects[edit]
Beast Mastery has three inherent effects:
- Each rank of Beast Mastery increases the pet's chance to land a critical hit by about 1% (if both attacker and target are level 20).
- The pet's base damage also increases with rank in the same way that mastering a weapon attribute does; see Damage calculation and pet damage for details.
- Finally, each rank decreases the amount of time the owner's skills are disabled when their animal companion dies.
