Guild Wars 2

From what I experience, there are roughly two popular builds when it comes to roaming and light havoc. The first is an interrupt power shatter utilizing dom/chrono+1 while the second is staff perplexity condi. Obviously there is more than these two builds and there is certainly variation within them, but for the most part these are the two general build types I see most often when roaming or in a light havoc group.

As such, what is everyone’s current preferred roaming or light havoc group builds in WvW?

I’m torn between which I prefer. I build my perplexity condi tough with a mix of dire and rabid gear and I have a lot of fun being so survivable while also being able to catch opponents off-guard with the amount of condi I can stack via shatters. On the other hand, power-shatter is just joyous when you get that interrupt and burst an opponent down before they know what hit them.

Down in Tier 3 of WvW where I am play, most roamers are primarily Thieves or Warriors; while havoc is usually a combination of something similar. I’m not sure if this is the case in T2 and T1, but as such, I generally tend to think that any roaming or light havoc build should be relatively decent against the aforementioned professions.

This is what I settled on. sometimes I swap this in to replace dumplings, I’m testing might stacking for more condi dmg.

That is pretty much my exact perplexity condi build as well. Interesting thought regarding the might stacking.

Seems to do really well with fury , and I also use daze mantra from time to time in place of signet.
