Ok, so having given up on Engi in spite of the little love we got, I have rekindled my love for my Dh (was my 1st main) so I was running Sceptre-Sword/Torch but now with the GS "buffs’ is that become a the meta now? I looked on Qt’s site and while the mention using it I don’t see a solid rotation/use for GS solely.
So is it used with the latter for burst and such? Lay down the symbol,use whirling then swap?
Just asking cuz I am really hyped about running my DH again (lol, DH, running…yea, funny?) in raids and whatever else but what to be a viable member to my raid squad as well.
And yea, always have Condi ranger in the wings but really keen on DH!

Greatsword adds at least 2k to the dps of the guardian, pretty much putting it on the same level as the other power classes. It’s even slightly better than pure scepter at big hitboxes. Yesterday I had great numbers with this build just about everywhere.

Traits are slightly different, obviously in zeal you now take the GS trait and in radiance you take Retribution over Radiant Fire because with chrono soi boon sharing the retal uptime is pretty decent (retal from GS symbol getting shared).

I’m not too sure about Amplified Wrath vs Perfect Inscriptions. In my tries AW still came out slightly higher every time, but my rotations aren’t 100% yet and the difference seems somewhat negligible.

EDIT: after looking in the comments he’s def using perfect inscriptions so I guess I still have to work on my rotation a bit. :P
