Guild Wars 2

Hey guys, decided to start making records of how i play and my playstyle. hope you enjoy and leave comments sugestions and critics

build in video description.

Using test of faith and ring of warding simultaneously makes no sense that I can figure.
The one literally prevents self infliction of the other.

Looked to me like they werent exactly overlayed most of the time. If so, and from what it looked like to me (I’m new) he was launching them through the trap barrier, into the ward wall, then chasing them into a much smaller space where they had to eat the hammer attacks or cross the trap barrier again voluntarily. Sometimes after being pulled through it once already.

I was actually surprised at how well he did with that weapon set. I’d never have used that combo outside of open world PvE.

Quite often the enemys pop stability and ignore ring of warding. When they dont and get stuck with me i switch to mace 3 Wich after my initial burst knocks most people down or at least near death(first fight of video shows that against chrono but i agree that many times the trap damage is denied.

ToF’s active damage has an internal cooldown of 3 seconds. While it IS possible to damage someone with the same traps active twice, the window is quite small and requires much more planning than the first, sometimes willing application.

Its so much fun when u get the combos just right:) i really like mace. Ill upload some better footage of this weapon set soon hopefully. I think theres too much videos of dh roaming in sw shield LB.

Still learning my guard, so appreciate the info. All advice and suggestions/vids welcome. It’s been hard finding recent vids with commentary instead of music.

This is untrue.

The ICD is 0.75 seconds and can be easily tested through HoM Golems.

You’re quite right.
I’m not sure where I got that number from… Maybe three quarters <,<

Thank you for your really enlightening videos. I’m a huge fan of hammer “as a concept”, but never could really get my hand on it. Always found it a bit clunky. You opened new paths for thinking ; I’m therefore very grateful.

And I’m also expecting a hammer/bow video soon ! :-)

Hey m8 hammer is in very good spot with practice, in both my videos you can see that against at least average players it deals a good amount of damage and cc. Dont worry i already have almost enough recodings of hammer longbow footage amd will post it soon

Hey new video is up. Made post about it hammer lb
