Guild Wars 2

I’m looking for a build to farm sky pirates during the invasions. I figure I want max AOE damage to tag the most mobs possible and high survivability. I don’t really need to do a lot of damage to each mob, emphasis would be on tagging a high number of mobs, even if the damage is low. Any suggestions?

Anything with Staff and GS. Maybe trait for Permeating Wrath. And bring Stability, because those pirates love to spam stuns.

depedning on how many people are there tagging mobs, damage dealt will be a factor that needs to be taken into account. though so far, getting credit with the ivnasions haven’t seemed to be a problem ever.

i will still say, going full berserker, and then like Chris mentioned, staff and GS will more than suffice. Staff is really all you need XDD 1-3 are all AoE, though staff 1 is tag king.

the only times you’ll have to be careful is when a new group spawns. i always make sure i’m on the perimeter before they start attacking – to avoid perma stun / confusion / daze, etc. then move your way back inside the blob. and yes, stability and stun breakers / condi cleanse help.

just for fun, you can try 10/25/0/5/30
disclaimer: just came up with this on the fly. ://

• Zeal II
• Radiance – doesn’t matter much i guess
• Virtues – permeating wrath with staff 1 for more AoE]
