Guild Wars 2

hah, nothing bad to say. JUST – am wondering everyone’s opinion on stats. What’s the ideal spread between power, ferocity, and precision. As well as what spec/build people would suggest for a warrior currently

warrior currently? shoutbow.
I think greatbow is pretty fun.
Basically http://metabattle.com/wiki/MetaBattle_Wiki PvP warrior builds here are all okay. If you wanna be serious about it, in this current meta you have to go shoutbow.

I hear a lot about shoutbow. Read the meta site on it. I’ll try it, but I do enjoy some spike dmg lol

With a warrior the spyke damage is hard to obtain. Because to reach the top of damage you have to be melee and that’s a bad thing if you’re in spvp. To play dps with melee you need to have very good mobility skills, condi clean, immunity/healing skills or hide (ele, guardian, thief). All the other classes play at they’re best in range (mesmer, ranger, engi, for example). Necro play berserker in dagger/X, but it’s best power come when in DS that have a ranged attack.

Warrior have a good damage, but to reach it’s best need to use skills like Eviscerate (axe F1) or 100Blade, that’s a very easy skills to dodge, block, blind, immunity.
There’s some Warrior builds that play Hammer and GS to stun with Hammer and active 100Blades, but if the enemy dodge your hammer F1, have stability or a breakstun you can’t deal damage with 100Blades.

Actually the warrior meta in spvp is a Supporter Build with shouts that heal and clean conditions and warhorn that clean ronditions, then when the enemy is under 50% HP active the skill 3 of the sword and deal a good damage. But if you’re not a very skilled player you can’t win against a good player in 1vs1 because it’s a gropu based build. But in a group you’re a very good character.

In spvp the best class to burst down a enemy is the mesmer. With a good dps build you can deal 18k to a berserker buil in 4-5 seconds. Very high damage. And you can do it with a mesmer because you deal all that damage by range and have a lot of skills that make you survive still if you haven’t traits to defend yourself (like clones, clone swap, blur and hide)

Some time ago the warrior was a good dps class in spvp but with the actual meta we’re forced to be a support class with shouts. And that’s sad.

Keep in mind, the meta is generally what the “pros” stick to in their teams.

Take Phantaram, when he solo queues, hes on a fresh air ele which is not even part of the meta and considered subpar to D/D on metabattle.

There are plenty of DPS warriors running around sPvP, some really good.
