Well I quit Guild Wars 2 for a while and I am now currently trying to get back into sPvP and WvW (with small scale/roaming focus) but I really have no idea what to run.

My favorite class and only level 80 is a Warrior but it seems like theifs are way too slippery or good at bursting to handle with my current rifle setup.

Is there a list of great builds for each class somewhere and if so could someone point me in the right direction. I really want to fool around on a Warrior, Necromancer, and Elementalist at the minimum. Could really use a decent build or two to help get me started though. I figured this forum would have people who know what they are doing and could provide some information to a lowly R10.

Yeah I wonder how valid those are considering it was posted in September which is a while ago.

Ele- Standard D/D 0/10/0/30/30

Guard has a few but generally- 0/0/30/30/0 with the 10 being varied

Ranger is traps, bm took the quickness nerf to hard imo- 0/30/30/5/5

Engie is HgH i dont have the traits but check around the engie forums if desired. Turrets are decent enough now as well.

Mesmer has a few but generally Shatter. Again i lack the traits off the top of my head

Necros have 2. Cons and Anti bunker. Khalfi has a great thread in the necro forums. Go check those out.

Thief has D/D burst, and D/P burst/attrition. P/D is decent enough but i wouldn’t recomend it

War has….uh…. nothing really. Theres a few builds here and there but none are really THAAAT good. Mostly relying on easily avoided gimmicks. I have the most success with Mace/Shield-GS Attrition. But to each their own.

Here’s a list of thief builds, all of them are pretty good. First find something you want to spec in (burst, blinds, conditions, etc), and then look at the individual builds listed in each category. Check them out, draw some inspiration from them.
