shutdown potential of ancient seads and superspeed and stealth access make it an potent build for damage in decent hands, the attack of oppurtunity synergyses well with ancient seeds as well.
While it has higher damage, it simply performs worse than the shoutbow variant, and so there is truly no point in taking this build.
The lack of healing power negates many of the advantages of using CA aside from the condi clear, and you also cannot support your teammates nearly as well.
As long as classes such as thief, holosmith, or spellbreaker are still performing well, there's not much of a reason to take this build as a DPS class.
Got several buffs over the months and with the nerfs to healing power scaling it's much closer to the mender/magi builds in terms of viability.
Take Beastly Warden instead of Zephyr's Speed for a 30 sec cooldown unblockable taunt. Murder everything.
Important to note that 5 classes/builds you'll run into currently rely on blocks to survive. Power Herald, DH Trapper, Gyro Scrapper, Macebow Zerker, and of course Chronophantasm. On top of that this build handles thieves far better than the meta bunker druid thanks to LB tracking into stealth, taunts pulling them out of stealth, and bigger bursts to punish mistakes.
Given the current landscape of pvp, post 10/18, this build should help you win as many if not more matches than the "Meta Bunker."
This build looks great on paper but falls short in practice. The LB/GS Marauder build using core ranger is more effective in my opinion. The Bunker druid build as Syrene suggests is currently meta and leaps and bounds easier and more effective to play, but these two builds are completely different in their target audience I believe. If you want a build similar to the previous meta of LB/GS, I'd suggest Shoutbow over this build.
