Guild Wars 2

saved 30 skill points for my Charr Warrior. which elite skill you guys think is better, Charrzooka or Rampage? Have some ones used both, how are they?

Signet of Rage tops all.

Signet of Rage , already have that, it recharges quickly, but bit weak. want to try something eles.

racial elites are almost ever bad/weak, I think the human hounds of balthazar are an exception to that.

rampage is going to be reworked again but I don’t think that it will ever be viable.

If you want some fun go for the rampage skill, if you want to be “effective” go for the Signet of Rage or the Warbanner(in group situations)

Signet of Rage and Warbanner should be your first two elites. Tbh, for a warrior, if you use anything else but SoR and Warbanner it’s a waste of your elite slot.

Signet of Rage is popular because it synergises with Deep Strike trait. With Signet mastery, the recharge comes down to 48s. In general, SoR grants the one thing that most other classes don’t have. A very short recharge speed buff. Stacked on with other speed buffs from other players, like the Mesmer speed AoE or that Guardian symbol, you can have near perma swiftness. No other class has that.

Signet of Rage tops all.

This at present. If the recently proposed READY UP changes happen….maybe not (All boon durations appear to be getting a nerf).

Elementalist hammerblasting can do 1 minute 10 seconds swiftness within a 4 second cast time, AoE, every 30 seconds. Engineers have the even simpler option of swapping kits every 10 seconds. So no, SoR is nowhere near these at all for Swiftness.

People use SoR/FGJ more for proccing Fury, though if you’re not using an axe offhand, you will need to have some form of +boon duration runes or traits or the Fury can’t have full uptime.

That said the most useful elite still tends to be Battle Standard, especially when pugging, because you can never predict your group. A well placed Battle Standard activation prevents wipes just by itself, and what we term ‘vengbannering’ (using Vengeance from down to Warbanner your party and giving your life in the process) can resolve situations where bosses have low HP left but everyone is downed. If running with better players, spam SoR.
