Hello,
I am looking for help coming up with a new build and armor combo for mainly wvw. Right now my build is letting me survive a lot although I am not really killing much either when solo. Opponents either run away or I do. I mainly travel solo in wvw trying to see what is going on and giving info so have focused on staying alive.
I am in Emblazoned Clerics of the Vamp, my rings/am etc are ruby ori of the berserker with an assassin’s guild backpack of the berserker. And have been using longbow/sword & warhorn. I have the mats saved up and gold to make another set of armor and was hoping to get some help with choosing it.

I am hoping to be running wvw with a small group or solo still while being part of the zerg machine when defending a keep etc.

Should I go with knights armor? Zerker or something else? And any builds to go with the armor suggestion? Thank you for the help, stuck at work wishing I was in game.

My main uses the same build in WvW, whether it be solo or in zerg: Conditioning!

Shortbow with Power/Precision/Cond dmg, same with armor and accessories.. Once you’re used to this style of play (getting behind your target and hitting it, while keeping your pet recharge at 20 seconds [read: don’t let your pet die]), you’ll enjoy it, and have a blast in WvW (I know I do :-) )

Thank you Tribio,
How is it not having toughness in the armor?

Well, if they get close to you, then it’s quite painful.. Thankfully Shortbow’s #3 evades and jumps away from the target, while lightning reflexes is also one hell of an evade skill (giving you great endurance regen afterwards as well for that little more dodge rolling).

You noticed indeed: No toughness, no vit. So the 16k hp is not that much, but evasion is crucial here..

Hmm I may try the build although am nervous, playing one handed for a while so not sure my dodge will be up to par.
