Would a hybrid Viper’s build work for WvW roaming?

Maybe something similar to this, just tossing the idea around.

Yeah, a small over sight, I was using my phone and I have to double tap for it to select and missed that one, but does anyone have any experience with a similar build or maybe just some insight?

Far too low of a health pool to roam in wvw, you’ll be getting one shot left and right, I would personally look at some sort of p/d variant using vipers armor with celestial trinkets. The celestial trinkets will give you more vit and toughness and using p/d is extremely effective at hybrid style (plus you can kite extremely easy)

I have never had an issue with running Full berserker back before the changes so the low Health pool is not too much of an issue for me. I have never tried a P/x build would Pistol Main hand provide Bleeds/Condi increase, over Dagger MH?

Pistol aa’s apply bleeds, the pistol stealth attack is a small rapid fire that stacks a lot bleeds, pistol 2 immobilizes and if you run dagger offhand p/d 3 applies torment will also teleporting you away from the target. The problem with running 11k hp, especially after the latest balance patch is that basically any class built slightly for damage will be able to 1-2 hit you. Other thieves, shatter mes, pewpew rangers, DH, rifle warriors will all be able to one shot you without even having to burn big cd’s. Going the other way since you are trying to hybrid you can’t truly burst them back and instead be able.to survive while you bring pressure from both direct damage and condi
