Guild Wars 2

Hey guys this is a post about how good warriors CAN be.
I have been scoring upwards of 250 a match with a few exceptions with this build( when you pug and get rank 20 team mates against rank 40’s…love matchmaking…jk)

On a regular basis I would say 3 of 5 matches I am scoring highest and well above 250.

Record so far was 435 points 26 kills. We lost that round. (foefire is annoying)
average score (if you don’t count the losing 500-50 or below when you get 4v5 or rank 1’s) is about 250-350 with 17-21 kills.

KILLSHOT IS O.P

Full GC warrior is one of the oldest builds with greatsword and for kittens and giggles I played….and scored 310 first match.

10/30/0/0/30
zerker/scholar runes/fire sigil
signets of might/fury/rage heal surge/throw bolas

Traits: (in order)
damage on adrenaline
rifle/gs cd traits and your choice but I go with precision with signets\
0
0
signet recharge, crit chance on adrenaline,dmg per boon

Basically my hundred blades hit 12-20k and killshot 8k-15k

Land a bolas…..hundred blade. everyone in the immediate area is now nearly dead.
rifle 2/3/4 and f1. wow eles/mesmers (usually glassier) and thief get nearly 1 hit. (record was 16.5k on a thief)

Just enter a fight with team mates and KILL STUFF. The only skill with this build is positioning and surviving. I’ve had teams that do great stomping (my weakness) vs teams who even after I down someone they leave me to die 1v2. (those are pretty common but I’ve scored 300-350 a lot and still lost)

Some notes: Killshot TRACES thief even in stealth. Hilarious to watch them stealth and know that I kill’d them.
the rifle/gs cd traits.
rifle= lower cd on volley #3 and pierce…. Yes my 14k killshot can go through the ally ressing, kill him and the downed guy at once.
greatsword= might on critical=explain below

This build has 80+ crit chance at all times. (90 on killshot)

so 5-9 hits per hundred blade in a small a.o.e every hit gives me 1 might…. If 2 people try to revive someone and I use hundred blade… I will end up with 20-25 might stacks. I only have 5 normally. That means the last half of my hundred blade hits and normal attacks after are hitting way more.

Any questions?

Thanks,
Bowser Jr.

I’ve dodged many of your Kill Shots. It’s difficult to see since you’re asura, but I like to imagine you’re always surprised when you’re standing far away and someone actually notices you casting it and dodges.

I am aware thakittens hard to notice the animation. That’s why I commented on enemy animations.

Does your Killshot crit that high? Yes.

Do you average that score?

well considering I matched against you 3 times in a row and you didnt get higher than 200 points, you must be using Hotjoin’s in there as well as your average cant be that high.

Is your spec cool? Yes. Is it Hotjoin viable? yes

Is it tournament viable? Dude. The moment you crit 15k on someone that entire team is like “KILL THE WARRIOR”

and then what. use your greatsword to get out? From 5 people?

You arent tanky enough with that build.

Awesome build, cool ideas, but your using misleading information and its not as good in tourney play. Keep that in mind people

DXIE I don’t remember playing you but I do score that high, but not always.
No I don’t spvp. Haven’t in months
Tpvp is so full of bad people, how are you surprised?
No I am not tanky. Don’t need to be.
As for for escaping….Your very right its hard. But that’s why you try not to go in solo.
Few groups actually realize target me. Yes in higher end tpvp you would but most don’t.

Yes… we know Warriors can have high damage numbers. What’s new. Most favorited class in PvE dungeons due to high damage vs brainless A.I. NPCs, blah blah blah.

Keyword: Brainless A.I. NPCs.

so in other words most puggers today? :P

You can do damage, the problem is they dont even need to focus on you to kill you . I understand who goes full zerker as a warrior to tPvP because warriors have lack of defense so they need to kill as quickly as they can before turning into free kills. If you face pugs they wont comunicate and tell each other to focus on you, but if you face premades you wont stand a chance.
Of course is only my opinion.

Score doesn’t mean much in tournies. I couldn’t count the number of times I’ve seen teams win by 250 points and their guys have personal scores in double figures.

You’re build is not in any sense viable for tournament play. You don’t have any defense at all. On a second note scholar runes on warrior are as useless as the vaporform from the vampire-runes. Before you even engage a teamfight you will be under 90% for sure. You can consider yourself lucky if by then you’re still alive.
But hey, that 13k killshot was definitely worth it. Escape a teamfight without condition cleanse? No problem at all. Just use whirlwind and rush to get away. Oh wait… cc/slows! Anyway, who cares about that, big numbers always win, am I right?

oh there must be someone very scared because the coming Warrior buff to write something like this.

everyone in this game still know that a warrior can do dmg. but this is the ONLY Thing the warrior can be good at ATM in tPvP.

but kow to your super gameplay.
you have many Points avter a round? not hard just run and cap Points and hit sometimes enemys with rifle to get assist/kills.

you have many kills after a round? yea super just stay on a hill and hit every enemy who is running brainless in the hole while ignoring you.

every of your killshot and HB kills People? oh yea , noobs who dont know that they can dodge in this game or still dont know what it means when they are watching in a warriors riflr. but if you Play vs good Players in this build they just will laught.
you cant run away with your gratsword when yu are crippled/chilled ( every clss can give it to you). so yea ist funny against randoms or in hotjoin. but when you will use this against good Players ( good Players dont mean they are in a guild, there are thousend of guildis who still dont know anything) you will just get focused from 2-3 Players all time and die INSTANT. you have nothing. normal warriors can survive this for 5 secends thanks shield. but you jast have 2 dodges and a gs skill who let you dode for not even 1 sek.

You can be effective with this build ONCE. Whenever you crit someone high with a rifle, you’ll become target number one. Non-pug/organized groups will focus you down in seconds or they’ll just send their thief to harass you. I think most of your success is due to lower lvl play and having the asura advantage of hard to read animations. You won’t have that advantage higher on the ladder.

I’ve played a similar build in spvp, it can be fun sniping people from the background, especially if you can get the f1 to pierce several people at once. I still think longbow is the better ranged weapon though.
