I’ve read a lot. I’ve searched a lot and I still can’t seem to find any concise information that gives details about how to best begin gearing up for end game. I was a very experienced FFXI and WOW player so I know how it’s general done, but I’m just not seeing it in GW2.

The basic debate seems to be Carrion vs Zerker. Well how is the best way to begin even getting these sets? I have just begun WvW and I generally seem to get owned pretty kitten quickly by mass zergs so getting badges is hard to come by. I see that I can buy that gear from badges I think?

So how best to get the gear that it seems most roll with?
- Crafting?
- WvW and buy with gold and badges?
- Trading Post? Buy with Gold?

I’m thoroughly confused…

Any other tips on how to start getting geared up to a level that I will be able to compete.

If you just hit 80 you’re probably not rich. Find what dung gives the tokens for these stats and go do them. You may also be able to get some of the stats you want from karma vendors in orr.

Jewelry you’ll probably need to craft/buy unless it’s available from karma.

If you want valk gear though… you’ll have to buy it.

You can also make weapons cheap through the mystic forge if you have skill points (check to see if they have the stats you want on the items)
