I have been experimenting with diffrent swordbuilds that don’t need stealth, but i havent found anything spectacular.

So… Anything out there that works well for wvw?

Pistolwhip:

I’d try something similar to this.

Balanced stats towards maintaining high defense while keeping high damage.
1402 toughness, 16 545 hp, 2970/3220 ap, 54% crit chance, 90% crit dmg. With food. :p
Fully without ascended jewelry, which would boost it even more.

Would need to play it for a while to optimize it any further.

Something to think about though is that non stealth builds have few options for
condition removal. This one only has Pain Response (and signet of agility),
Personal choice of runes and sigils could boost that.

Alternatively I would move 10 points from trickery to acrobatics for Quick Recovery
which also would put your hp at 17.5k, or 5 points for the 10% dmg increase when endurance isn’t full.
