Guild Wars 2

Sharing a build that I’ve found to work very well with Stronghold. I wouldn’t use this over anything like the meta Celestial EG build, but since that tankiness doesn’t generally make as much of a difference in Stronghold (in my experience), this is what I’m running:

Scrapper Rabid Flamethrower
http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vdAQJAqanUUB1ahtbBWXBEqiF2iiO4P+kH8DLxAQsjminA-TJhAABws/AZlBA4BAw9JAAA

This is a heavy condi build that runs very similar to the well known Rabid Flamethrower build found on places like MetaBattle, but it’s adapted to to utilize a few things from the new Scrapper elite spec.

The general strat with this build is to stack might with your elixir B, Super Elixir and Acid Bomb on Elixir Gun, and if you get the chance, from blasting the Flamethrower’s fire field. With might stacked, you can then pop Incendiary Ammo and use Blowtorch on an enemy to melt them incredibly fast. In most realistic scenarios, you won’t be able to perfectly stack everything or course, but you stack as much as you can, when you can.

The reason I took the Scrapper line instead of just using the same Rabid FT build was that you get some really strong defense in the Scrapper line from Adaptive Armor as well as the benefit of Function Gyro.

Sneak Gyro, I’ve found is pretty handy for NPC support, rezzes, etc. If you don’t like this, you can also run Mortar Kit and if zerk warriors ever become something to worry about again, there’s also Elixir X.

Comfy build, I rate it.
