Anybody tried this with Fear Me, Berserker’s Stance and Balanced Stance? I’ve encountered several wvw warriors in it and it’s just a beastly 1v1 build. People either have to waste dodges not getting stunlocked to death by hammer, getting instead stunned by Quake into an eviscerate, or they dodge the eviscerate but have to hit hammer CC.

The sustained damage from axe autoattack is just incredibly high in a mix of knight+berk.

Lyssa Runes and Signet of Rage, high swiftness uptime and gap closers so you don’t get kited at all.

Either way all they need to kill you is axe auto you to death.

Seems like s/d thief is the only build that gives them a run for their money.

Your video’s link to the build doesn’t work anymore.

I’m really curious because one of the warriors I was dueling happened to be running with a trait for endure pain procs, so I have to wonder about a build that can take punishment yet still be able to grind high toughness targets like spirit rangers and bunker eles down.

I want to try it on my warrior.

I pet a class like p/d thief or something that can reliably kite through all the cc might give this build a run for its money, but you need a ridiculous amount of peels to survive and there are very little builds/classes that can do so. Maybe a mesmer with the right setup like crippling dissipation and blink and stealth might do it.

If I can find a good build for roaming on my warrior I’ll be very happy as I’m sick of my ranger and other classes.

I used to play A/M H, probably about 6-7 months ago. It was a fun build at the time but with the current state of Axe I don’t think I would use it.

The build is so old theres been so many trait revisions that the websites probably won’t work with whats posted on their now.
