Guild Wars 2

My current definition of ‘glass canon’ is to deal out tons of damage very quickly.

I’m guess you need to spec into either Power+Crit Chance or Crit Chance+Crit Damage.

Full zerker’s and a Sword, pretty sure.

Reroll to a warrior

Bane or Wraith Signet, pending on your style.

Beryl Jewelery (pwr/vit/critdmg) & Zerker Gear.

Lemongrass or Truffle + Oils.

Like other’s said… makea DPS Monkey Zerker Warr and then wait around for others to revive you in every single boss encounter.

Its funny but Silentstorm and I ended up with a similar split but different traits. For GS/Hammer in pvp I have run this build and like it a lot. The condition stripping is a massive survivability boost. You could simply swap in the toughness to precision trait and anything else you think might boost damage to make it do more damage in pve. I swap out the first skill depending on the situation: Retreat, Save Yourselves, Stand Your Ground.

You don’t.

Guardians are melee-oriented, which means you need to always have some survivability on the side to make sure you don’t explode instantly.

That’s why Crit-Damage to tied to Toughness in the trait-lines. So you can get some damage while you focus on survivability.

1.20/25/25/0/0 traits
2. berzerkers ruby everything, offensive runes sigils
3. offensive foods and oils
4. Greatsword, staff, charge up with empower before burst
5. Offensive racial elites
6. Offensive ultilites like Save yourselves, JI, Purging flames
7.. good skill rotation to maximise damage from traits, like blind exposure,

The burst you could do is actually really high if you go this way, but then again you have to be a bit crazy like me to dare do something like this……..

And the traits are very very important.

1.20pts in zeal for added power, 15% damage increase in Fiery wrth and greatsword trait
25pts in radiance for crit and radiant power for extr 10% damage
25pts in honor?? or is it value for crit damage

2. self explanatory

3. same as above

4. empower gives 12 stacks of might which is a big deal, GS is still your best burst weapon

5. not gamebreaking, but having something like Hounds of balthazar does boost damage even further

6. Save yourselves is obligatory, Purging flames and JI burn ticks off 5-6k hp by itself which is like half the health of thieves,

7. GS blind and Vitue of justice gives 6% vulnerability now after patch, precasting some offensive skill before your JI also helps
