Guild Wars 2

The builds listed here on the front page aren’t what I’m looking for.

I went up against a d/f build in wvw that I simply could not take down, he couldn’t take my engy down either, but it was a great fight. Just wondering what build did he use?

It was d/f and did both direct and condi dmg, so I’m guessing he used celestial outfit. But do you guys know the trait setup for the build?
Also, I’m guessing he used signet of earth, other than that I’m not sure what he used.

If I had to guess.

How big were his heals and regens? He cleanse a lot of your condi’s? Was he tanky?

I’m not sure how it is on your server or tier, but in T1, Dire/Apoth/Settler’s mix sets with various 6 earth trait builds and perplexity runes are gaining in popularity.

some go 0/0/6/6/2, 0/0/6/4/4, 0/0/6/2/6, 2/0/6/2/4, 2/0/6/6/0 etc etc.

That was probably me. I recently faced a condi engi that it was taking longer than usual to take down and i was forced to flee seeing 2 more enemies were coming. . With perpl runes the fights don’t take as long but that just makes it one sided most of the time and that is boring. I used one of my condition builds.

I don’t think it was me, we fought for a very long time and I accidentally scooted off a cliff, when I returned we parted ways. No others were nearby.

He was medium tanky, but I could still spike him, as he got quite low at some point. He healed for a very high amount though everytime he went into water attune, and cleansed a lot, so I’m guessing at least 4 in water.
I’m from Blackgate

Well the D/F builds I use all rely on Air attunements. 0-6-0-2-6. Against range enemies Focus can easily reflect back most of their damage and cleanse a bit. This makes the common engineers and rangers build have a disadvantage. Obsidian Armor enable elementalist to get a full heal with ether renewal, dodging in water to heal, critical hits giving a passive regen , and FA/LR for burst. FA is like halving the cd on air attunement swap or LR gives 3 of a D/F cc skills(shock aura, gust, comet) damage and weakness.

Sounds like a fun build, could you post a full build link please? I’m going to have to try all these out in 15 levels once I get to 80

Relies on dodging/focus for defense has Low condition removal and High burst. Could mod the build by swapping LR for FA and picking up 2 in earth for 10% more melee damage. Lack of mobility is an issue in fights, so do not expect to run without FGS.

I ran a d/f power build but 0 6 0 4 4. It was fun but not that reliable when the fights took long.

I support D/D, D/F and S/D Viable in spvp. In wvw d/d any fusion and D/F conditions and Fresh air is equally fun. It’s all situational and use rabbits.

Holy crap, I think that was me! I’ve been running a D/F power condi hybrid for awhile now and I do recall a fight against an engineer that was going nowhere, and he was indeed from Black Gate.

Did the character you fought look like an Asuran Luigi? (Chef outfit colored green and white :P)

Afraid not, it was a human IIRC

Aww oh well. Well it’s neat to know that there’s other D/F pioneers out there! Hope you find who you’re looking for, mate.
