Guild Wars 2

I have no experience with Phantasm but that doesn’t mean give me the most mindless build you can. I am looking for a basic, cookie cutter build to dig my feet into this playstyle. Nothing edgy, just give. Me something. Much appreciated and yours truly, Remy.

Edit: I hear that OH sword is a common use, and I don’t have just about any experience with that so, I wouldn’t mind a build with it in there.

Since your too lazy to read anything stickied our on the forum here.

Woah, okay, that was rude… Either way, thanks. Sorry I forgot about the stickies builds.

Might be rude but it is true, there were other threads on the subject already on the page 1. Not to mention the builds list, which holds even more list inside. Just do a little more research next time before making a pointless thread.

I looked but I didn’t know which to pick, so I was hoping the more experienced people would filter through and just give the notable ones.

That one is the best unless they unleash some sort of phantasm nerf.

Alright thanks colsey. I have most of that gear, actually running dungeons right now to finish up getting my zerk gear.

This is what I usually run when going for a phantasm build.

20/20/0/30/0 with berserker’s gear using sword/pistol and greatsword works well for a phantasm build.

In domination, taking the 15% illusion damage and the greatsword cd traits,

In duelling, taking the phantasm fury and pistol cd (this makes every shot of the duelist a projectile finisher)

In inspiration, taking something like persisting images, compounding celerity, and perhaps the focus cd/reflect if you need to put on a focus on certain ranged fights, if not perhaps the condi removal on heal may help.

Utilities, something like, signet of illusions, blink and decoy usually works.

I have also heard that 10/30/0/30/0 works well too.

I wrote that a while ago so I could just link it every time someone asks. Hasn’t failed yet.
