Guild Wars 2

Hi all.

I have a 80 warrior who I mostly use to farm CoF P1 and 10 minutes ago I was in a group where we had a warrior who could clear the Control Room (the part right before the final boss) in literally less than 3 seconds. I’ve seen thieves do it very quick as well but haven’t seen a warrior who could do it in less than 3 seconds.

So I was just wondering if any experienced warrior players would kindly share their experience, tips or rotation skills required to pull it off.

I tried Signet of Rage and Frenzy but still took longer than 3-4 seconds to smash the controller ><

Greatly appreciated

While I don’t farm cof much and when I do I usually use mesmer, I’m pretty sure frenzy – hb – ww – eviscerate would be the fastest way to destroy the brazier, not sure if eviscerate finish is even overkill. Are you getting full ww off in the brazier or are you whirling past it missing some of the damage and time?

Hi Konu. Thanks for your response.

I have still yet to try that combination. From what I remember, I used Signet of Rage, Frenzy, HB and WW and a 1-2 hits before the brazier was destroyed. When I get time later today I’ll try out eviscerate as well. When I used my WW, I don’t think I missed anything.

I asked this question to another person and he said that the person might be using PvE consumables such as grenades or golem in a box. I’m not sure what PvE consumables are but maybe that’s the reason why~

Frenzy + Dual Axe 5th Attack + Burst Skill

I just tried it out. Still couldn’t do it fast enough :O

Would it be because my two axes aren’t powerful enough?

Frenzy + Dual Axe 5th Attack + Burst Skill

Axe 5 doesn’t come even close to hb’s damage so I don’t see that working.

For Kazafz: I think that unless you have like masterwork axe that should be enough if your gs and build otherwise is ideal and you get all the ww damage possible. How much power your build gives at lvl 80 without stuff like bloodlust/might stacks with your gs equipped (basically power while sitting in a town without having stuff like signet of might which would pump up the power)? I’m sitting at 3440. I’ll try to get time and test what it takes for me to take down brazier.

Edit: I’m running 20/30/0/0/20 so I could get 100 more power if speccing 30 to strength but I doubt that would be necessary or worth doing just to get more damage to structures.

100B + WW + Evisc with Frenzy

Hi Konu,

So I went back to Lion’s Arch and checked my stats and its the following:
Power: 2,251
Critical Chance: 64%
Running: 20/30/0/0/20

I have a full DPS Set from CoF with 6 Ruby Orb runes in the armor.
My GS uses the Superior Sigil of Strength
As for the accessories, rings and amulet. I only have the Ascended DPS amulet and the rest are just Masterwork DPS accessories with Brilliant Ruby Jewel embedded in all of them.

How do you reach 2440 power?
Would be awesome if you could give me a few pointers

Strifey: I’ll try that rotation out later tonight! By the way are you the one with a Youtube channel?

Edit: Nevermind~ I just realised I was subscribed to you some time ago xD

Greatsword gives 1100 attack so I only need 2340 power to reach the 3440 attack.

All exotic outside of 4/6 ascended trinkets. All berserker, scholar runes and bloodlust sigil on GS. It’s not something I have tuned for cof speedrun or structure destroying but more of a general setup I use in pretty much all the content. I think 10% possible damage increase from scholar should work on structures so that might give me further edge. Still haven’t tested it though.

Hi Konu,

In that case, does that mean all I need is to have all the Ascended trinkets and I should get higher power???

Either ascended or exotic trinkets will put you really close, scholar runes give a bit more power than ruby orbs too. Just did the brazier a few times, hard to estimate the accurate time but probably somewhere around 3 seconds.

Wow that’s heaps good mate. What rotation skill did you use?

Frenzy – hb – ww – eviscerate. Depending of the run I needed to finish it with one or two chops, so that probably makes it end up between 3 and 4 secs.

Eviscerate comes from the Axe Burst skill right? So you swap weapons yeah?

yeah, hb – ww – swap – eviscerate.

You use whirlwind INTO the gate key so that all 16 hits land and you don’t move. Gotta aim it perfectly.
