Guild Wars 2

What’s the build most people are using to level? Looking for something as easy as Lightning Hammer was for my Ele.

Search for Lazy Kai (on phone or I would do it for you).

Well, maxinion is probably talking about my guide, you can find it the most actual one in my signature. ^^

I started a new mesmer (well from lvl 20) and I went full power first, then precision, gear was full power too. All full power! I use staff and sw/focus and gs + sw/focus.
First I run and aggro a large group, then drop chaos field, iwarden and blurred frenzy on top. They all go down like butter. With GS I drop izerker first then warden/blurred.
And a nice sigil to go with that is Sigil of Speed? not sure on the name, gives swiftness after a kill, its awesome when grinding enemies with that 100%xp-kill-stuff-within-30sec, its cheap too.

From my experience (even if it’s quite a while ago) power shatter is best for open world. The weapon choice lies entirely on you, every weapon is viable with power gear, even staff and scepter (a little known fact: it is proven the scepter auto attack at range 600 or less is stronger than the greatsword auto attack at max range). I personally like the sword/sword + greatsword combo.

As soon as you reach lvl 40 take Deceptive Evasion, it is THE best trait for leveling, you need 20 points in Dueling for it. 10 points in Domination for Mental Torment(Mind Wrack does 20% more damage) is also quite powerful.
