Guild Wars 2

Hello fellow gamers,

(About this post; I don’t mind leveling any class or gold/diamond requirements)

(Something about me)
I’m a World of Warcraft player who’s willing to play more games with friends; We’re all mainly focused on PvP, and are all pretty good in Arena, Battlegrounds and World PvP (We’re all gladiators in WoW PvP). I’ve done some google-ing, played the game, got several lvl 80s, tried some casual PvP and dungeons and loved the gameplay in general.

(Help required)
I’ve got a small amount of experience in this game; I’ve leveled a warrior, ranger and engineer to lvl 80 for PvP, done this in the PvP mode, and done World vs World vs World aswell. No Ascended pieces or whatever; just superior items with some gimicky tryhard builds. But I miss my old class and spec I’ve been playing in world of warcraft, so…

(My question)
Can someone please help create a build that looks something like “WoW Destruction warlock”. It is a class that’s build around very hard hitting spells. You build up a special recourse, and unleash them while your enemies are Controlled by for example a stun, dealing heavy damage. While your damage outside this burst is decent/worse.

What I need with this is:
1 . Hard hitting, ranged ability. Prefered no CD. If I can use this ability and follow it up with something else that does big damage, it is fine aswell.
2. I need 1 stun/cc which I can use to I can get this ability going so nobody can dodge/stop it for the duration of the CC.
3. Decent survivability would be great too; but the other 2 things are my priority.

Something extra: If you can tell me what armor/traits I should run would help too. But I just can’t find a fitting class with the things I’m currently interrested in. It’s fine if it’s Semi-viable, but I just don’t mind being really good anyway; I just want to play something like this again.

If you need me to give video examples how this class works in World of Warcaft I can give you some video links. Maybe that will help. Waiting for your responses, thanks!

Some things that I can add that can make it more clear:
It should be a power build;
Crit/precision is probably important;
Mobility isn’t my main issue.

You might have more luck posting in the PvP forum or players helping players.

I’ll just copy paste it there, anyway if anyone is willing to help here; Post something below here please. =)

Thanks.

Yeah you should repost this on the PvP forums you’d def get help there but i’d recommend trying out Mesmer they seem to be close to what your looking for try shatter Mesmer build in Metabattle.

Just searched on metabattle; Yes seems fun. But maybe a little bit too melee-ish. I’m trying to get this build with other weapon types/traits for a more ranged like burst. Thanks for pointing it out though something to try & change ^^!

These are just a few suggestions off the top of my head:
Bullrush warrior: choose your favourite burst, bullrush right before
Sword/pistol thief: number 3 is in theory exactly stun-burst, but you might not get a full burst off (interrupt thief is fun in general though imo)
Gs signet ranger. I played this a lot and it’s very similar to your description. Signet of the hunt when mauling. Kitty for extra might if you want more umph.

Just saw you prefer ranged, ranged is taxed in this game, your nasty bursts are mostly melee. That said, the improved longbow of the ranger might be worth looking at, use quickening zephyr for those sudden bursts

Alright I’m currently looking for a stun in the longbow build, or a way to prevent them from blocking it atleast; Thanks I can figure it out from here.

Thanks everybody ^^!
