How to not suck at pvp with warr?
sounds like you are running a “nightmare” build but its extremely risky in pvp.
a very viable build that isn’t seen often and a lot more fun than hambow is an axe/shield + longbow focused on just enogh control to land large eviscerate crits. I’ll slap one together real quick and give you a link maybe you’ll have more fun >.<
try a different hambow then
0/0/6/2/6
doge march, cleansing ire, spiked armor
inspiring banners
warrior’s sprint, destruction of the empowered, burst mastery
soldiers amulet
runes of strength
longbow (leeching, purity)
hammer (battle, energy)
healing signet
banner of strength, banner of defense, dolyak signet
battle standard
main purpose would be cc, stack might for more damage.

he doesn’t want hambow.
@OP: I don’t know of any actually viable builds with GS aside from skullcrack which got nerfed but if you changed the GS for longbow you get this:
set up with pin down and a bit of lb damage, switch to axe and burst with shield bash and eviscerate. pretty glassy and you have to time your dodges well to stay alive for long enough.
the utilities have some wiggle room if you’d rather not focus on stances, but burst precision with axe and runes of strength is pretty high DPS and you’re not so squishy anymore

Why short temper?
Why sharpened axes? adrenaline is plentiful with LB as second set.
The difference between my link and Crovax is with his you get faster burst recharge, 16% more crit damage, and a few more crits in between bursts, with mine you get +900 armor and higher raw power, and still crit every burst.
With my playstyle I want the armor just due to the philosophy that when you’re dead you do exactly 0 DPS. But it’s personal preference up to you!

You still crit almost every evis on mine due to int sigil and do considerably more damage with the bow, which is far more important since you’ll spend most of your time in teamfights if you are not a roamer or sidenode bunker. (not counting mes deffing with portal).
Bottom line: Solstice’s build focuses more on 1v1 duelling situations while mine focuses on support through heavy damage from range and unexpected bursts on
focus targets through axe.
edit: every time i see short temper used in builds i wonder if that person is serious or just didn’t read the discription properly

Short temper because it’s a might-stacking build. certain fights you will get a lot of might from this trait. Plus there aren’t other very great options in that trait choice
Sharpened Axes because LB use the adrenaline as well so more is always better plus CD on axe skills . If eviscerate is blocked or miss it won’t activate cleansing ire so using LB burst is a sure way to clear condis, and then blast the fire field with arcing arrow (more might), and shield bash back through it for fire aura (more might).
But for sharpened axe mobile strikes is just as good of a choice to make sure immobilize never stops you from eviscerating.

It’s just different builds and they come with diff playstyles. Your build might be more kiting the teamfight laying down LB fire, whereas mine would fire a few LB shots and then jump right into the fight and absorb DPS for my team with my 3.4k armor.

Yeah but armor doesn’t help much in a condi meta and with a cavalier amulett you will be doing very little damage aside from eviscerate. 4% critchance is extremely low and all that crit damage is wasted aside from oneshots that are easily blocked, blinded or evaded.

swap endure pain for signet of might and then signet + land pin down or shield stun = eviscerate can’t miss.
i guess where I’m really coming from is when I fight zerker amulet warriors they seem to die faster than even light or medium armor classes. warriors don’t have much active defense.
I like to use this one: the good old 100b

There’s also some combos you can execute:
- Whirlwind -> Blade Trail (rotate your camera, so you can face your enemy right away)
With Leg Especialist he won’t be able to dodge your next attack. You can use it to hit Rush or Frenzy + Bull Rush -> 100b
Also, using the sword:
- Flurry -> Stow your weapon right away ->Go to your opponent’s back and start auto attacking him
I’d recommend swapping the Doliak Signet for Berserk Stance, if you are facing a team with more than one D/P thief, or two engineers…
@Conaywea See the problem with this game is that any build which is difficult/fun to play is very weak. If you’ve made a build which allows you to eat, watch a tv show, play some guitar or paint the garage while you’re playing it, you can be pretty sure it’s among the most powerful builds in this game. If, on the other hand, it requires a perfect focus, spot-on combo executions and general flawless play, it’s guaranteed to be medicore at best. Seems main balance prority over last year was to substitute player skill with passive traits and conditions.
As for builds, running this myself atm, quite fun. In current meta feels kinda like playing Dark Souls with doubled difficulty:

If you’re not the masochist type, you could try this, works much better in current meta and still rather fun:
