Guild Wars 2

I’ve been playing with Dagger + Focus in SPvP today. I like it, maybe i don’t have the best traits but i do some really good damage and i have a few defensive skills to keep me alive/away from damage.

This is how my build looks right now.

(I mostly use air elemental as it stuns and when enemy is stunned i do 20% more damage)
(20% reduced cd for earth skills because 10 sec reduced cd on Obsidian Felsh which makes me invulnerable for 4 seconds)

Edit: Swapped out Sigil of Purity for Sigil of superior Leeching as it shared a global cooldown with Sigil of Superior Blood, and now you also get more lifesteal for better survival.

Anyone have any tip for a perfect Dagger + Focus build?

I’ve tried this versus some in my guild, great pvpers.

Mesmer shatter build
Warrior stunlock build
Necromancer (deathshroud build?)
Ranger

I can adapt too most situations and win, it’s just a matter of skill.

Interesting build, glad it’s working for you. D/F always feels clunky to me, main damage up close, main defense geared toward ranged, but I’m always in favor of people playing what works for them (I play a gadget engineer at the moment…..).

The one thing I’d change is the weapon sigil set. The two sigils you have share a global cooldown, so only one will ever actually work. Swap one out for a sigil without a cooldown, such as force/accuracy/bloodlust/etc.

Don’t forget the blast finisher on Earth4. It’s super useful and on a relatively low cooldown. =) If you use frost elemental it will make an ice field that you can use to give Frost Aura to peeps. Otherwise, I usually use it to give me (and my summon) might off of fire wall.

Thank you guys for the advise, will change that sigil. The thing with this build, it’s pretty hybrid.
