Guild Wars 2

I just started doing sPvP and have tried using staff, scepter/focus and scepter/dagger and so far my best success has been with scepter/dagger. However, I simply cannot kill anyone 1v1. People all either out damage me or simply heal and slowly kill me. I cycle through my blinds, mist, kite people around but unless they are clearly mouth breathingkitten I simply cannot seal the deal on a 1v1 fight on the point.

I found this build and have been using it. Is it bogus or am I just terrible? Any tips boys?

1v1 dual dagger is king

Well I had the same problem, I’ve struggled to live for more than 5 sec in sPvP, which made me re-think my gameplay. I figured out that I would like to have more defensive ability just to live longer and that I would do more dmg with conditions. So I took teleport, mist form and cleansing fire. Also I’ve filled all of earth attu and put nothing in fire. Maybe my build isn’t the greatest but it works and I suppose it will change when I’ll get more used to ele PvP playstyle.
