What are the most helpful tips for sPvP?
/bump because I need some help
Do the tutorial first. That doesn’t hurt.
Look at your profession forums for your profession to see some build options.
Try not to solo SPvP. If you have team mates, you’re better off being with at least one or two of them. SPvP isn’t a solo activity and you’ll do better if you look for other people. There’s strength in numbers.
Every single SPvP arena has a secondary objective. Some of these can literally change the game. The other day we were winning and the other team killed our Guild Lord and jumped ahead of us to win right at the very end. Good playing on their part. But only one map has the guild lord. Different maps have different secondary events.
Make sure you bring some condition removal and some stun breaker with you. Every profession has them.
This is all I can think of off the top of my head.
Yup, staying with your team definitely helps survive.
If you find youre dying alot, try swithing to q defensive amulet (cleric, soldier, things like that).
If you want a good build, and avoid the fun of creating and tweaking your own build, there are lists on the peofession forums.
You should star by getting familiar with tour own skills and what you can do with them.
If a certain profession is giving you trouble, see if theres soneone in yur guild/friends list that plays the profession and can help you. Knowing what others can do is hard, but it may just be more inportant than knowing yourself.
Experience comes with practice. If you die, try to find out why you died, you can see a death breakdown where he most damaging skills are listed.
In the Spvp forum is a stickied thread with a list of experienced players whom you can whisper in game for help!
You can ofcourse always whisper me if you want, and ill th my best to help.
Hope this helps,
