Guild Wars 2

Is Scepter really the top DPS weapon now?

I hope so. I love it!

I love the new scepter with my new hybrid guard <3
Thanks A-Net

I’ve been trying to get this to work for like 2 hours now but I can’t seem to reach anywhere near the numbers in the video qT posted. The initial DPS check shows the guy hitting 39K and then it scales down to about 34K, but with all buffs, full ascended zerker gear, force and air sigils on a large golem with all condis on him and the exact same traits I can only get 31K initially and then that drops down to about 29K. I’m really confused about what I’m doing wrong.

Can you link the video?

Time to make Meteorlogicus

Assuming you were asking me, sure.

Thanks bro. I’m really glad we have the option to move away from using LB now

Do you have Seaweed Salad (and are constantly moving) and Furious Stones, and are you dropping the symbol before placing Traps?

Seaweed yes, furious stones no (Fruitcake supplies stocked up in my bank), dropping symbol before traps yes. I’m doing everything exactly like they do in the video. I really don’t get how I’m missing nearly 8K burst in the first 30 seconds.

I’m pretty sure that the scepter got its range reduced to 900 just to make that option even more reasonable [/sarcasm]
