I’m assuming this is mostly for WvW, based on the infusions/defense/hp. Looks pretty solid to me.

Edit: I might suggest maybe throwing in some on-crit sigils rather than intelligence, at least on the S/T side — you’re using right hand strength which should knock crit chance up to 60%, which with the multi-attacks gives you assured procs. Also, my PERSONAL opinion is that the sigil of rage isn’t really up enough to warrant using, but your mileage may vary.

From my point of view, it lacks in range. so not good build i mean. if it is wvw, range attack is more in need.

Consider Runes of the Wurm over Exuberance. You’ll gain 222 Ferocity, while losing 121 power, 87, Precision, and 52 Hpow. You can drop curry butternut for sweet and spicy butternut and with RHS and Fury, you’ll still have 71% crit. If you switch to Valkyrie weapons, you can further up your power and ferocity at a slight cost to toughness and vit.

modified armor page with some options to consider. Depends on how much you value that precision. http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fVEQNAsfRl0ApbolDxdI8DNh/QY9xUAWvX3e+B-TViFABDcEAU7UAkmeAFV/Jn9HuSJIAPAAmU+ZnmgAAIA3sNbzbG4oH9oH9oHtduzduzduzSBExyI-w

If you’re going to be zerging, I’ll vouch for Sigil of Celerity. its be crazy

Also, there is no armor cap, soft or hard.

It’s all well posting a build like that, but you mentioned you were new. Do you have full ascended + all infusions? or able to get them anytime soon?

If not, you might want to look at something you’re able to get and work from there.

Personally I would drop a lot of toughness and put it in power.
I would also get rid of Torch and get Focus instead.
I would also get rid of Inner Fire, because it’s really situational, and only getting 3 sec fury from it is pretty lame.

I’d go for something along the lines of this

This one is better since you’re original had way to little power and condi removal.

My recommendations/personal preferences:

-Smite condition > Mericful Intervention: Will give you a lot more access to fury, healing, condo removal, etc.
-Meditiation Mastery > Retributive Armor: More access to fury, healing, etc.
-Shelter > Signet of Resolve: Shelter will almost never be interrupted and can help prevent TONs of damage. It can stop an entire zerg from killing you in some situations.
-Focus > Torch: The blind and block on it can be quite beneficial, and in WvW where fights aren’t always in your favor it doesn’t hurt to have a weapon with some defensive skills. Plus focus #5 can still be used in a burst when timed correctly.
-Blind Exposure/Searing Flames/Signet Mastery > Inner Fire: All of these will do something reliably in every fight where Inner Fire might not. Searing flames though won’t always strip a particularly useful boon, and signet mastery of course is only useful if you decide to use signet of resolve over shelter.
-Inspired Virtue > Pure of Heart: I’d recommend taking 1 point out of Honor and putting it into Virtues for the awesome minor trait. As it is your access to aegis is pretty limited so I think the boons from inspired virtue would be more helpful.

For PvE I’d recommend 100% Berserker gear, however this build would still do fine imo. For dungeons I’d recommend shouts/consecrations over mediations so you can support your group.

Whatever you end up running with, have fun.
