Reading most topics regarding HoT difficulty level I see lots of the answers suggesting that content is not for full Berserk geared players. As a gw1 fan and adept player I disagree with this excuse! you can be a full zerg and still succeed (I know several players have stated that) but I just want to give some love or hints to those that had problems with the crystal builds (regardless of the gear used… a sniper can kill a soldier if they just stand in the fire).

Personally I am a full Berserk ele with only exotic gear and I am able to run trough maguma jungle content thanks to something some players seems to be unfamiliar with called “builds” (without the need of changing gear) … depending on your class, the skills for the running build you need are basically Stability and condition removal/denial and yes …dodge!.
The only problem I face as zerg is having to change builds constantly for fights as some require certain strats reason why I would like to motivate people to ask anet for the save/load build template function to be back (masteries included) … that way you could just dedicate more time to design your strategies and enjoy the game content using the gear you want, if Zerg so be it… don’t feel like a noob for sticking to pure damage ele or dying a few times, feel bad when after several hours of gameplay you have learned nothing from it.

Suddenly in the Forums Everyone is now a Game designer!

Given that ANet’s advertised intent with HoT was to present content that would require players to use a much greater range of what the game allows, build-wise, your revelation should hardly be surprising. And yes, build templates would be a great QoL addition.

Build templates have been asked for in GW2 ever since I started playing it back in beta. I have not really seen any dev commentary on this suggestion. But I could have missed it since the search function on the forums sucks eggs.

I second the motion to have build templates available for each line setup we use in our current builds which makes perfect sense. Can’t switch in combat but that should not be a problem. Since I’ve not played many other games that offer build templates except for Rift, I see nothing wrong with having this ability.

I currently have to have a piece of paper and pen beside me just to jot down what I use for each build I like, and its a pain to switch to in a pinch. Because in many cases there is gear and weapon sets that have to be used with each type of build as well.
