The combat in GW2 is something I like. The idea of different weapons providing different skills and being able to swap to different weapons in combat easily.
So what are your prefered Weapons of Choice and why?
As a warrior i’ve gone with:
Set 1: Main Hand: Sword
Off Hand: Axe
Set 2: Main Hand: Mace
Off Hand: Shield
or
Two handed rifle.
I like the sword and axe combination as it gives me a leap in to battle, very nice when enemies are spread out and you are crippled, the F1 attack is a nice CC as well, and you have a basic CC. The Axe, a decent single blow and a brilliant AoE attack that really increases the adrenaline fast.
The mace and shield combination I like for tougher mobs. The mace is slow but hits harder than either sword or axe, and has a nice defensive attack, plus has stuns. The shield stuns and defends.
The rifle is useful for pulls, slow tough mobs, champions (so I dont get hit :P ), anf flying mobs.
