Guild Wars 2

Well, as the tittle say, I’m looking for a good sustaintable melee build focused to use GS+S/A. i’m not a big fan of burst builds with no defense (used to play as a cele engi and bunker hammer warrior).

So… any suggentions?

(PS.: Sorry for the bad english)

20660 while you can get it before the traits changes.

Barkskin and survival of the fittest. Take whatever traits you feel comfy with, like two-handed training, off hand training or martial training, etc. Typically bersersker based gear, add in some soldiers until you’re comfy. Valks, cavs, etc.

That’s the stock melee build everyone runs. There are a million other variants, especially including moment of clarity.

People will post specific builds after me, but that’s the overarching concept.

btw, for now I’m using this build:

Aaand I forgot to say that the build is for WvWroaming

You want either healing spring for the 3 leaps (double leap on swoop if your target is inside the radius, and single leap on monarchs leap) or troll unguent for the sustain most likely. Take the traits I suggested with survival skills (LR, entangle, muddy terrain, signet of anything.)

Force sigil isn’t great for competitive, take air, fire, energy, generosity, mostly.

Mr. Fluff, what about this build? (stole from a “Gw Fox” video :P but with zerker armor)

You could drop the Truffle Steak for Orrian Steak Frittes, only 3% crit chance lost for a 700 health gain. They are 1/3 the price. Could also drop the Potent Sharpening Stone for Hardened Stones, those are 18s cheaper and only a loss of 27 power. You could use the saved money to help towards ascended armor and weapons.

Since you have a lot of survival skills on there, you may as well take SoTF, imo. In the OP, you asked for a S/A build, so I put axe back in there, if you run MoC it really is the better option over dagger for the ’rupts. Look at the video in my sig to see it work.

Ya that’s the MoC variant I was referring to. As heimskarl shows, you can move one of the lines around, you just usually take 6 for EB or 6 for SotF.
