Guild Wars 2

I’ve been trying to come up with a good just Mesmer Beef / Hold the cap point build. Here is what has been working for me the best.

I’m looking for feedback on how to make it better or other similar builds.

If it works for you, stick with it. On paper, it has some shortcomings:

The major problems I see with this build are:
– low healing
– no condition removal / protection
– 6th Dolyak rune sucks (swap it for something else)
– Sigil of Blood won’t do you much good with a 19% crit chance
– no knockback / denial capability for the node
– the last time I tested Superior Leeching on my sword + pistol it was bugged and the leech proc vanished before I could ever use it.

A conditionmancer would chew through your hp pool in no time flat, and I think a Guardian would win a battle of attrition.

Here, try this:

Don’t let the low toughness fool you. If you know how to play a good positional game and stay close to your duelists, you’ll have 100% uptime for regen and protection, which is amazing.
