Help starting DH roamer
Hi
This is a WvW video I posted which includes roaming, outnumbered fights and duels. Check it out. I used GS + LB. My build is in the description.
Instead of scholar runes, use traveler runes. I think you’d be better off with all marauder equipment. Use air/blood on sword/focus. Get the food that reduces incoming damage by 10%
I make PvP & WvW videos
this is my build that I use all times, pretty effective.
I use hammer, cause I got bored by Greatsword. Plus its good against those pesky druids
how do you guys fare though against condi heavy enemies like condi phantasm chronos and condi trap or evade daredevils?
Not just the regular condi chrono, but those that uses phantasm with lifesteal sigils.
Or maybe you guys don’t have these opponents on your server / timezone that you are running…

Depends on what build I’m running when I happen upon them.
Best case scenario: between Smite Condition, CoP, traited F2, RF, traited heal and focus 4, I have more than enough condi cleanse to outlast just about any condi build.
As for the ones you mentioned:
I have yet to encounter a phantasm mesmer…. like ever. I imagine these aren’t that great for roaming and are used in niche dueling builds. Either way, destroy the phantasms is what I’ve been told.
Condi Mesmer: If they’re running condi-shatter, it’s a very tough fight but doable. If they’re running a tankier build with dire stats, then your best bet is baiting them into overextending/blowing their utilities then bursting. As long as you don’t do that yourself, you can stalemate them.
Condi trap thief: I just…. walk away. These are quite the trolliest of builds lol.
Condi evade daredevils are pretty problematic. I have found though that they do go down, but you must be more patient, approach carefully and make smart use of condi cleanses (don’t use smite condi just as an offensive attack).
