Guild Wars 2

I’m curious. I know it hasnt been long since the patch but I wanted to know, what trait layout are you running in WvW? (numbers will do, but feel free to specify trait picks).

I’ve been trying a lot of build diversity for myself and finding results boil down to two very distinct realities. This makes me wonder where other peoples builds have landed.

20/0/30/20/0

Full zerker gear, Gsword+Sword/Torch
MoR/MoP/Blink/Decoy/MI
Centaur Runes/Boon Duration Food

Dom: 15% Phantasm Dps/Torch CD Reduction
Chaos: Illusionary Defense/Bountiful Inturruptions/Prismatic Understanding
Insp: Cure condition on heal/Restorative Mantras

This is a build that mixes good defense, with 3 stealths and 3 condition removals along with two heals from MoR and MoP, to some pretty good offense brought about by the berserker and building might stacks from gword 2 and BI.

So far been alot of fun duoing/soloing in wvw, if you tend to go in bigger groups i would switch out the runes for lyssa, and swap blink for SoI, so you can share the boons you get from stealth/AoE heal with mantra of recovery.

I tried quite a lot, but I stuck with Zumi’s [Boon Support] Mesmer build, except more solo, and interrupt focused. I know interrupts are sort of bollocks at the moment, but I like it because of the challenge it provides.

20/20/30/0/0
Greatsword / Sword+Pistol
Mantra of Distraction, Decoy, Null Field, Mass Invisibility.

As for armor stats I haven’t decided yet.

Not much change here. Went from 10/30/0/25/5 to 10/30/0/30/0.

20 Power
30 Prec
20 Def

Role = Hiter
Core = Manipulation -20%, Clone when Dodge

This trait open into so many combination depend on my taste.

Lazy Staff Phantasm Mesmer With Dual Sword (For Dun)
Phantasm damage 15%, Halting Strike, Staff Mastery, Sword Mastery

Raw Stat Counter Master, GS – Dual Sword (WVW – Roaming)
Sword mastery, GS Mastery, Halting Strike

Melee Assisting Mesmer, GS + Sword Pistol (Wvw with Warrior class)
Sword Mastery, Pistol Mastery, GS Mastery, Halting Strike

Phantasm Based GS – Dual Sword(WVW – Zerging)
Since interupt is not good vs Frontline aka stability. Sword Mastery, Phantasm Damage 15%, GS Mastery, Phantasm Fury

Still making Vid for this new trait. Hope finish soon
