Guild Wars 2

Hello,

I’ve always played a full clerics support build so I could always carry bad parties in dungeons and fractals but I’ve reached a point where I’m wanting more dps.

Could people running with full knight’s or a mix of knight’s and berserker’s please post their gear and average damage against normal level 80 monsters with the greatsword skills? It would show me the damage differences with my build and a dps focused build.

Any help is appreciated.

You could head to the Mists and try some different amulets and builds n go smack some test Golems. I’ve used them to do some testing and its about as consistent of a test as we have access too right now. Granted the amulets don’t fully mimic exotic/ascended stat spread but it will give you an idea of the difference between some builds. I’ll post some average hit values when I can do some recording.

Unfortunately, the Mists are not capable of simulating a real DPS build. You don’t get enough crit damage there – something like 20 % from the amulet and the jewel, iirc, since half of the crit budget is put into vitality on the zerker stuff. In PvE, on the other hand, I run around with 80 % from gear, so you see the difference …
