Yeah its great, blah blah I just dont care. Its a really boring choice. So I’m rolling with the flamethrower. Flamethrower spam is best, dont be hatin just cuz you havent embraced the spam. Learn to embrace, and all will be well. Trust me, I know these things because I am telling you over the interwebs.

I usually run both. You got to share the stability, you know.

Agreed. FT spam is okay when they’re in that 200~450 range dead zone, but only when they don’t have Retaliation… which is a common buff in this meta.

I use this build for roaming in WvW, since Slick Shoes isn’t as necessary there. It gives you the rolling 20 Might, Stability and FT2 burst opener along with an easier time maintaining Swiftness, all useful things in the open world.

Hammer is just an amazing weapon for SPvP. It’s hard to justify focusing your build around a mediocre kit like FT when the only thing it does better is give you buffs out of combat and auto-attack 5 NPCs stacked in a corner better than Hammer can due to its target cap.

Plenty of classes dont have retal. In fact most of them dont.
FT is good for kiting melee which hammer cannot do. Also you can still put out damage pressure on point when they are spamming aoe. Lol I’m pretty sure ft can give pretty good in combat boons as well.
The biggest thing that makes ft so crappy imo is the friggen aa which can easily miss, even at close ranges. In my heart of hearts I know that elixir b is better, but you know, its just dumb.
I rest my case.

I also use FT to CC, for a well timed Blind, or to go through blocks and walls…
