Guild Wars 2

I vastly prefer PvE content in games, partly because I suck at PvP, but I also like all the exlporatory, character-driven content that comes with PvE. That said, my builds typically are for running around in open-world/LS PvE, but I’m just now getting my feet wet in 5mans (need to farm empys for those darn Vision Crystals…) and learning the group playstyle in GW2.

I’ve been running a 2/6/6/0/0 build for just open world PvE. However, I want to bring more utility to the group setting, so I’ve been playing around with a 3/5/0/4/2 build. Tell me what you think! (be nice and constructive or I’ll just delete your reply)

• Note: I realize that full zerker is the gearing meta for power builds, so don’t get stuck on that. For this build I’m experimenting with the idea that the more prec I have, the more crits I do, the more might I get/give, the more damage I do. Plus I have all this darn Assassin gear laying around….

Zerker is still more damage, even with the procs. 3/5/0/4/2 is the meta hammer build. Using assassins won’t be the worst thing you could do, so use it if you don’t want to spend more money or whatever.

If your running hammer and you don’t have writ of persistence on your missing out on so much and mine as well run something else. That’s less damage, vuln, and less prot. It’s also less procs with your sigil of strength. Force would be better than accuracy. Meditations aren’t worthwhile in pve also. Consecrations are where it’s at.
