Guild Wars 2

I have a current idea for a phantasm roaming spec. Not very accustomed to making a build but this is what I have come up with.

Build

The idea behind this is to have a bit of passive defense when mainly solo or small group roaming in WvW. Without dismissing too much damage from Phantasms.

Focus is there mainly for pulls and swiftness, and exchanged for sword/sword if needed.

Not using many condition removal is the reasoning behind the runes and food. Which originally i had seen the idea in one of Osicats shatter builds.

I havn’t had time to test this or attempt it as I am at uni but will be later on this evening.

Also am tempted in keeping the same traits but replacing Portal for Mantra of Resolve or Phantasmal Disenchanter as another for of Condi Removal, With this replacing the rune for Travelers, and the focus for a sword. This is shown below.
Updated Build

Any critisism would be greatly appriciated. Thank you for your time.

Edit: Added second idea with advice from a friend

Currently testing will update on my results soon.

The second build is almost identical to my ‘Overpowered phantasm build’. I think that the last 5 points in domination is not ideal, which is why I put them in inspiration. Take a look at my build, you can find it in Fay’s build list. It works very well for roaming actually, but can be a bit fragile if you get into an outnumbered fight.

Ahh wonderful didn’t do too much research when creating these, just put them together. I will have a look at your build Pyro, see how it works in comparison.
