I feel a bit lost atm. I’d like to find a good Greatsword build, and an armor set to go with it, suited for mainly WvW, but I’d like to be able to do some dungeons as well. Any suggestions? =)

this have been my pve solo, dungeon, and wvw set up for 3 weeks..tested and works very well for me.

http://gw2skills.net...BYPwI8741DHSRGC

my stats:
attack:2670
crit: 40%
hp:17000+
armor:3200+
heal:750 with GS, 900 with staffs

the build is defensive, but the play style is offensive.

my might always on 5-7 stacks at least from empower+1st skill’s 3rd chain+signet of justice..when in dungeon, with atruistic healing+shouts=my health barely fall below 50%..when it does, i go out of battle, switch to staff and heal with 4th skill..note that staff’s 4th skill has 3 stacks x 4 times application of might to all allies..so the healing amount with empower(the 4th staff’s skill) is decent with this build..

and for wvwvw, I am able to kill 2 enemies while fighting 1v5 against them(And die of course)

Personally running this build with +60% might duration from runes, pow/toughness/vit armor and pow/precision/toughness accessories. This gives me around 40-45% crit with decent power and survivability.
Many major traits and utilities can be freely switched depending on preference and situation, the only ones I consider essential to this build are Two-Handed Mastery, Empowering Might and Fiery Wrath.

My current setup is 30 Zeal (selectable traits: 2/7/12) and 30 Honor (3/9/10) and 10 virtue (6). It’s an offensive support setup with high power, high defense, low crit, and low condition damage.

Currently in invader gear upgraded with soldier crests – exotic for armor+GS and rare on the accessories. Stats: 2285 Power, 916 Precision, 1674 Toughness, 1974 Vitality. 3385 Attack, 4% crit, 2885 Armor, 21385 Health.

Signet of Resolve / Stand Your Ground / Wall of Reflection / Bow of Truth / Tome of Courage.

That said, just choose a setup you find that works best for you and your guild if they do WvW runs.
