Colin Johanson on how arenanet measures success.
(Please no gear treadmills, Colin!)
I run S/P – S/S in PvP and S/F – GS in PvE. I happen to have found an accountbound staff in my bank that I have to set stats for (must have had MF on it, the name is “Delusion”.) I’ve never really used staff and I’m wondering if it has any use in WvW or PvE outside a full condition damage build. Any suggestions?
I use staff in my power phantasm builds, just bc its highly defensive, and is just amazing in fights to keep you alive and mobile. it’s also a close quarters/medium range weapon cuz of chaos storm and faster staff bounces, when enemies get close. The warlock phantasm will work with power phantasm builds but the other condi things will just be some icing. basically it is very versatile, and will help in more challenging situations, for example 1vX, and harder one shot PvE bosses that might be a dangerous fight or for protecting an ally when needed, especially with blast finishers, but in general you use it for its defensive ability and mobility
Well, in PvE boss events where bosses gets all condition put on them, the iWarlock can hit for 12000+ crits quite easily.
Yes, Staff definitely has a place in all builds. It is by far my favorite weapon on the class(And probably the game). I LOVE Chaos storm and iWarlock.
I’m pretty biased towards anything defensive though!
