Hi!

I was browsing though Youtube, and found a now three year old WvW video, of me playing Cleric Shout Warrior: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CCIKn-F-ggA&t

NB: Sorry about the quality, gameplay, music, etc. Alot change in three years

Question is, in the current meta, how outdated is the build?

Build: Full Clerics, Heal on Shouts, Trooper Runes
Role: Zerg-breaking using fear and stuns from hammer.

The video really takes me back to my first 15k wvw kills, and I’m somehow tempted to dust off my old warrior, and take him for a spin (pun intended).

Thanks

It probably still works but Stance and Stunlock builds are vastly superior in the current meta.

HoT made it a poor option. Shouts haven’t kept up with the power creep, and even the hammer isn’t as useful as it used to be due to the proliferation of stun breaks.

You can play it, may find some success and/or fun, but it’s not that good anymore. That said, I haven’t been in a zerg or a zerg-bust in a long time.

I use a magi/cleric shout build on occasion for easy healing/condi removal. Its not super op amazing face tank the world or anything, but its something different. More for open squad wrather than closed squad zerg breaking.

Hahahaha completely outdated. Its either zerker nike stunlocker or zerker condi burner (much more rare) that people play. I literally havent seen a warrior with a hammer for over a year.
