WvW zerg
100% PTV or Knights gear, Great Sword + Longbow (traited preferably to hit annoying siege in some spots, and Sig of Stone.
With enough armor and life you can avoid a large portion of zerg damage if you can keep your GS chain going the whole fight. As lag gets worse or the enemy spread out this can become a problem and you will actually have a higher risk of dying as the enemy is losing, but this is the more or less best gear setup for a zerg fight.
Also, get used to forgetting the pet exists for most of your fights because it simply won’t live long enough to do very much at all so don’t trait assuming it will be there when you need it.
Hmm, a lot depends on what your commanders do when zerg hits zerg. Sans a pet in the lag that will do anything, probably need to bow it, and work the perimeter and stay away from the head of the zerg you’re colliding with. My warrior with Stability and over 2000 toughness can die in that zerg point real quick like.

The most fun in zerg vs. zerg for me was glass cannon and good positioning. LB with Piercing Arrows and Rune of Fire can rock some pretty heavy AoE, even when barrage is on cooldown. Also, being a glass cannon in zerg fights makes the positioning really important and a lot more fun to play than the old “stick the lamp” game.
This is just my opinion of course, but you should try it.
