Guild Wars 2

I’m a big fan of scepter and wanted to see if anyone was running a mix of support & dps type build?

This is for 3-5 man havok. My thoughts is a mix of damage while providing some support to team mates.

Anyone running something similar or have some good ideas?

I appreciate any guidance and tips!

You could go damage and support them with aura sharing? Personally I don’t think sc/x is that good unless you go full damage

Yeah I couldn’t think of anything supportive for scepter/x either. Was hoping someone smarter than me had some ideas LOL

But yes can do a little more aggressive geared auramancer.

I think that you are looking for something like this: that use Dagger or Scepter

Other option, and the one that I use (only dagger) for solo or havoc

Would like to pitch to join the question, but for a zerging build. Builds willingness behind welcomed

I run such a mix using S/F regulary in an 2-3 man group.
Gear is a mix of Viper (mainly) and some rabid,wanderer, celestial pieces.

Here the durability version i think i will use again after getting the second ring from PvP rewards. Currently i try antitoxin rune combined with sweet bean bun and have the small armor pieces in rabid and then trait geomancers training which gives 20% + 24% + 33% resistance to criple/chill/imob.

The build is fine solo and in a team. I might use FSG as elite in solo roaming.
Food can be as needed. Classic pizza is fine.

Precision looks low but you gain fury with each swap. The build is a boon build with a lot of might stacking and the nice thing is the ele playstyle feeling.
Invigorationg torrets is something i don´t need in this build having regen from multiple sources annyway.
Warriors and some Necros are usually very hard and i can´t handle condi mesmers very long due to lack of constant cleanses. On the other side i can handle thiefs very well and they are the most common class in WvW. Most power builds tend to perish against me.
I don´t care about zerging … But i have a wanderer staff in my backpack if needed.

Hey Wolf!

Thanks as always for your advice. One question. Did you link the correct build? I ask because you mention antitoxic runes & rabid/wanderer pieces. But the build linked has trailblazers and durability runes.

Just wanted to double check. Thanks as always for your assistance!

i posted the dura version and did mention it. Swaped back to it yesterday. I tired if antitoxin and sweat bean bun helps me noticeable against condi builds. I go back to dura because arcane feels so nice to play even if loosing some damage and i pack more power into my rings.
