I have just started doing some sPvP, after a long break from the game. The build I’ve been using is: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fhAQNAW8dnsISra2oGmqB3aGZ2YMdHrUBKXqpSGQyA-TJRTABAs/QhXEgMKDQzTAAA . I was just wondering if anyone had any thoughts, comments, or tweaks I could make to it, and how generally viable it is.
In general, I’ve been doing pretty well. I spend 95% of my time with staff, mainly swapping to my secondary weapon for focus 4 or sword 3 for chasing/mobility when I think chasing someone is worth the effort, so am very flexible on the secondary weapon set. The runes I selected for more condition damage and cleansing, since null field is my only other cleanse on my bar. The general goal of the build is to capture points by outlasting anyone that comes at me. The general strategy is to spam staff clones and then focus on not dying and staying on the point. Sword clones can be used if I am really in need of boon stripping, however I have yet to actually use them. I may at some point try out a build focusing on them, since it seems like it’d be a little more annoying to throw 3 sword spamming clones in someone’s face that they can’t kill without receiving conditions (I’d swap the 6th point in chaos for a 5th in dueling at that point). Does anyone have any suggestions on how to improve upon this, or if there are better builds for accomplishing similar tasks, or if this build/goal is utterly horrible and should be scrapped for something better?
