So I’ve been really happy with my GS / Sword+Focus build so far with leveling. Just to give an idea of what I’m working towards:

Basically a Power / Crit build, but I made sure to throw in some survivability and group utility with some points in Inspiration. My goal is to have some utility in Dungeons while still providing decent dps. Also, most likely in dungeons I’ll go Mantra of Distraction instead of Decoy.

Anyway, with all these videos and posts lately of Staff builds, its got me interested in playing that. However, as far as I am aware, it will require a completely different gearing (Condition and Precision as opposed to Power). Anyway, these builds all look fantastic in open world farming, but can anyone comment on the viability of them in a dungeon? My typical group runs with a Banner / Shout (he can’t decide which he likes better) Warrior and a Spirit based Nature Magic Ranger. So I worry about our dps in our group if staff ends up being a bit more support / defensive in nature.

Anyway, I will probably try out a staff condition build just to see how it goes, but I’d love to hear opinions on the specs if anyone has em.
