Guild Wars 2

In terms of Division climbing, how far have you guys gotten with DH?
Personally I went till t5 of Sapphire, but after fulling and losing all the pips in that tier 3 times, I tried Revenant and got to Ruby 1st try. Have been playing Revenant in PvP since then, but I might be playing DH a bit more now, kinda miss him xD

I rolled a DH at some point, in fact never played Guardian ever before, made it 18 or 19 win streak (sapphire/ruby) and deleted it. I do get the point the class does not work in 5v5 matches, but a well played one will always be a yoloq destroyer.

Cant even count the tears i’ve shed from laughter after placing 3 relatively low CD spells on various choke points, especially in Khylo. There was a game where one guy from the enemy team died by mid at start and never escaped his base since till defeat.

Diamond Tier 4, Solo Q only (I have no friends)

The thing about this rank system is that it feels like more of a grind than an “achievement.”

Maybe I was lucky getting teamed up with fairly skilled people, but it was not really difficult to climb the ladder. (and no, I don’t play 10 hours per day)

Seems like you guys play DH better than me.. Maybe I’ve lose so much because my love for GS doesn’t let me play S/F LBow. I actually prefer GS over S/F but I know why S/F is better.

Yet Power Rev has gotten me better results and so I’m not going to drop it for PvP until I get the title for it, and it´s going pretty smooth so far

^ Yes usually picking the strongest most OP class is the best way to advance.

My guildie whose main is a Thief, switched to DH for pvp and he uses GS/LB. I think he is almost diamond now and he tells me he gets way more damage numbers with the GS and doesnt really care about sw/focus. He is usually doing around 700-1 million damage per match using meditrapper.

Power Rev is strong but I don’t think it’s OP. Mallyx is different, and even that is almost taken care of. Any Condi build can rekt Rev after Glint heal is gone.. This is fact

But sure vs Power build Rev has a lot more defences than any other Power build beside Scrapper

Medi Guard after virtues are used and heal is on CD is kinda kitten

got to diamond division in roughly 350 games playing somewhat casual solo que, played 80% of the games on DH, rest split between rev and mesmer (mostly for the meta achievement)

I’ve found more success playing a slightly tankier version than the metabattles meditrapper, using shelter instead of purification and durability runes instead of pack or trapper.
