Guild Wars 2

That will give the guardian 100% swiftness?

I hate not having the passive 25% but on my other toons I can get 90% to 100% uptime on swiftness. Not seeing how to on the guardian (granted only messed around in the mists on a level 5 one)

staff, “retreat” and “save yourself”. Also if u get boon duration runes and trait into virtues there’s your perma-swiftness.

We don’t really do 100% speed buff so all you can do is pray someone buffs you or reside to walking ^^

Then use the other weapon and the last utility you have to avoid a certain death.

You will always have “save yourself” and changing skills before combat is common sense. Also staff is a good weapon for WvW or support.

heh, one of the builds i run is an AH build with hammer and staff. i have those 2 shouts slotted normally and when i am running around, if these are both on CD, or even just one, and i run into someone, it sucks starting a fight off with over half your utilities on hold already. XPPP

@OP – you could look into Runes of Speed. i’ve heard they’re quite nice if you want to have swiftness. personally not worth giving up all the other stat combos you can get with runes though.

I believe there is a 20% boon duration potion that would help to.

I’ve been using Sigil of Speed on my shield in pve, when doing things like chain events and large pulls, I’ll have swiftness listed for 1 minute constantly. Pretty good considering I can use it with any build really, unless it requires two specific sigils.
