So I just had a quick one. I’m after a class/build that has good self healing that runs a viable condi build. My mesmer is lacklustre regarding self heals and my necro isn’t much better. They are the only two classes I have and would welcome any advice/ suggestions. I’m not interested in group heals really. Just a 1v1 roaming scenario.
Warrior (Berserker elite) has both insane self healing and condition damage. Just use the Defense traitline, equip a sword or mace with a torch, wear Dire or Rabid gear and you’ll have huge offense as well as sustain.
I have same question but more narrow in scope: With the current game right now what would be the profession with best self healing that is NOT HoT unlocked (Core Profession only)? Will Warrior (core) be as good self healing wise as Berzeker is?
I got a character to lvl eighty but I have no interest in the game after that point and I’m looking to go through Core PvE open world again (no PvP of any type).
My answer to OP and Gardavil is similar to Zsymon’s response.
The difference is I’ve also had amazing success with all Settler’s gear (using Rune of the Undead specifically) on my Warrior. Berserker or Vanilla it works pretty well. The condi damage is higher than you’d think, and you can shrug off anyone’s bursts. Defense trait line is essential for Warrior sustain.
edit: also @Gardavil there are quite a few people in the Warrior sub-forum that claim they’re really good at besting Berserker Warriors with their Vanilla Warrior. So, I think you could be comfortable with assuming they’re at least on par w/ each other.
