Just wondering, what’s the good amount of Toughness, Critical Damage, and Power a Powermancer should have in wvw?

In WvW, if i go powermancer and I am trying to get my crit up, I use food to about 46% crit and about 58% crit damage, because I try to offset with armor. (Bowl of curry something = +100 crit, +10% crit dmg; and master maintenance oil)

I run a 30/10/0/0/30 build going powermancer and actually axe is ok if you use death shroud as much to do damage. I think I set at about 2490 armor, 22.5k hps, 3500 attack, 46% crit, 58% crit damage (+50% in death shroud). 2500 armor is decent for the damage output. Its not amazing but you can withstand a thief barrage (one thief). To get toughness I think i have knight’s armor mostly, some soldier gear and I use the old juggermancer runes (solidier runes). I run 2 knights earrings with esquisite rubies (zergker gem), 2 soldier rings, with zerker gems, soldier necklacewith zerker gems, and a soldier backpack with a zerker gem.

all in all, if you get some vuln on a peron with focus 4, chill them, get a channel off, you can hit for 5k (more if they are under 50%) with axe 2, jump into shroud, fear, hit ds1 a few times hit for about 3.5k – 5.5k depending on their armor and hp %, etc.

I run in full bereserker, which is not that bad for 1v1, but you really need to focus when playing in the zerg. If you don’t fail your positioning, you can change the outcome of a battle (taking down the opposite commander for example). If you do, well, you’ll make enemy players rally…

Sit on the backline in a zerg and absolutely melt your enemies in zerker gear with wells and marks. The loot bags are glorious. You have to make sure you dont get caught out though, otherwise you are a free rally. Luckily DS can save your life and get you out of some nasty aoe and reposition to a safer spot.

I never run in Zergs cause it bores me & you wont gain any skill by doing so, I run with my Guild 6 Days a week 15-25ppl. Iam full Zerker with the exception of 3 Ascended pcs that are T,P,Crit dmg.

I run 30-0-10-0-30 with GM ofc (without that in WvW is being without armor)

The key is positioning !! cant stress that enough, gear is secondary. But yea you are squishy in form of Toughness Id say around 1300. HP is up tho tnx to the 2500hp from Fortitude.

Dont be afraid to Zerk-up

I run knights armor, zerker weapons, 3 zerker trinkets and 3 PVT trinkets just for a little bit more survivability.
I also run 30/15/0/025 because i like the fury for the DS flip and the Weakening Shroud.
