Guild Wars 2

So this is less a question and more a discussion on how to get fury.

I have been wondering in PvE, does anyone use this trait “Inner Fire” to great effect?
I personally have never used it, in fact I do not think it even worked a while ago. Anyway, I wanted to see if there was a easy way to get fury as a Guardian, and does anyone have any advise?

The second part is, is there a way to get the debuff fire on to yourself? Deliberately. Just it seems like Guardians are missing fury and I would really like to get that buff without a being in a party.

Thanks.

I switch my Adept Radiance major between Blind Exposure/Inner Fury depending on what I’m doing. For example, in dungeons like CoF, CoE and Arah (situationally) I like to have it on. Otherwise, nope. It’s always vuln on blind.

The only other ways to gain fury outside of a party is ‘Save Yourselves!’ and Tome of Wrath 4. It’s really not a boon we can keep up unfortunately.

Edit: http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Fury There are also runes too.. I guess.

As renny said, we have no reliable and frequent application of fury, save for inner fire, which is situational at best. In pvp it is on a lot actually, but in pve you will hardly ever see it.

The only way to get the fire debuff on yourself is again save yourselves, as it pulls allies conditions onto yourself, but you are already getting fury from the shout itself so…meh?

I think a long time ago someone in beta said that the torch used to burn you? but no more.

I just found out that Charr racial gives 6s of fury. Maybe if you had some boon duration runes? lol

Use x5-6 superior runes of the citadel + save yourselves.

runes of rage are one of the best changes I’ve made to my guardian since switching from divinity runes. I lose 2% crit chance and 50 healing power and get nearly perma fury up time with SY

It’s a shame the +5% damage 6th runes is bugged like Rune of Strength. ( But I suppose you can slot a ruby orb instead )

BTW does the 2nd Rune +20% duration affect the 30 seconds of Fury you get from the 4th Rune?

yes, you get 36s when it procs
and I just run a 6th divinity so I still have the 12% CD I would have with all 6 divinity

Get Inner Fire, purchase Jezza’s Flamethrower in Sparkfly Fen, press skill 2, burn yourself and get fury….

If you want fury as a Guard just get Citadel or Rage runes. Inner Fire is amazing for PvP since there’s so much burning going around, but it’s rather meh for PvE, very situational.

Also if you get Citadel or Rage runes only get five. Rage’s 5% more damage is bugged, and the bomb on hit from Citadel is ok. I’d recommend Citadel over Rage anyways since raw power is generally more useful than crit dmg. If Rage’s 6th wasn’t bugged then it would be a different story.

5 Citadel + 1 Ruby is one of the best sets around for damage, for the price. If you don’t expect to be above 90% health all the time it beats the pants off of Scholar.

I do pause to turn it on when doing the Graal Shaman fractal .

Destroyer farming too – its a great equalizer for when your opponent is going to ignore your burn damage.

Anyone know if there is an internal cooldown on the trait?

Like Forty Seven Ninjas.6982:

Grants 3 seconds of fury, no internal cooldown.
