Guild Wars 2

Hello everyone! My full zerk dps thief was getting kitten at some dungeons, so i decided to make a more durable build, mixing zerk and valkyrie sets and other trait lines. And here comes the question: Which traits should i use? I was thinking about: This or This. Or i should use something diffrent? What do You think?

the first build will probably work better, thanks to the points in acrobatics. you could also mix knights and valkyrie for even more survivability if that doesn’t work for you. on that note, have you thought about a full valkyrie hidden killer build?

I never thinked about it, Hidden Killer would replace Executioner then, so i think the dmg loss ll be kinda too much. Also i dont think that would work with ocassionally changeing to s/p and s/d for some bosses if required. But i think i ll give this a try.

if your group has a source of fury, the damage loss isn’t too severe. without a fury source you are entirely reliant on being able to stealth every 3 seconds. the upside to full valkyrie being the health pool and that you lose crit chance instead of crit damage like you would with knights, so you still hit at full power when you crit, but you crit less often. ruby orbs and access to fury both help. you should generally try to only stack as much survivability as you need to stay alive, so hidden killer would probably only be worth it if you are still dying with your build revision. never tried hidden killer in PvE to be honest though.
