Guild Wars 2

Heya folks!

I’ve been messing around with this build for a while, and I’m really enjoying it:

http://www.guildhead.com/skill-calc#mzkmzc9coFrvooFrvo0xpf0MRqmcM08khS7kin7kiH7070R7ofD

Basically the idea is to build stacks of might to boost your damage, while keeping good survivability. So key elements are: Food that gives might on dodge, and Power of Inertia. That’s already 2 stacks of might per dodge. Superior Sigil of Strenght gives you might on crits, always nice. Now, using your signets will also give you 5 stacks of might, with the exception of Signet of Malice. I’m using Superior Runes of Altruism, so I’m getting 8(!) stacks of might and fury every 12secs! Now add all those together, and you’ll start to see the potential…

Also, it’s quite survivable, as you’ll basically be stealthing all night long, and dazing your opponents with Tactical Strike. Stealth will also cure conditions, give you might (see a pattern here?), and give you regen.

Go give it a shot, and give me your opinions please! Any suggestions/critisism is very much welcome.

Huskie,

The link is not taking me to a specific build at the moment.

Really? I tried it and it seems to be working for me. Gonna see if I can fix it, but meanwhile:

0/30/25/15/0

Critical strikes: 2(Signets of Power), 8(Signet Use), 11(Executioner)
Shadow Arts: 4(Shadow’s Embrace), 3(Shadow Protector)
Acrobatics: 2(Power of Inertia)

Berserker Gear with Superior runes of Altruism, Sword/dagger with Sigil of Superior Paralyzation and Sigil of Superior Strenght, 2nd weapon set is Shortbow with Sigil of Superior Bloodlust.

Utilities: Signet of Malice(heal), Shadow Refuge, Signet of Agility, Signet of Shadows, Dagger Storm.

Copy the link and paste it in another window, should work.

I think that Signet of Malice is not that great in PvP fights.

Hide in Shadows seems to be a better option.

Unless you are a build without CnD, Malice is superior to shadows in every way.

Except you won’t always be in melee range to use CnD

The utility of an extra stealth in PvP outweighs the superior healing potential of signet of malice imo

Not to mention that HiS clears DoTs

There are plenty of ways to get stealth other than CnD, SoM heals for more than HiS does, even if you dont count the passive on it. If you need a condition clear, Shadow’s Embrace is a better option than HiS, since it is a passive and will work every 3 seconds, vice every 30 seconds.

I believe you are mistaken.

HiS base heal is higher than SoM:

In addition Shadow’s Embrace works with HiS not with SoM

Looks like a pretty standard stealth/signet/might build.
Might stacking works much better with P/D though since main-hand pistol scales with condition damage and power.

I don’t see much point in stacking might on S/D when there are so many better food buffs and traits you can take.

If you have high hit volume go for SoM else go with HiS.

If you wanna build for massive dodges and perma Vigor go for Withdraw.

HiS does have a higher base than SoM, but SoM has a shorter cool down. You can SoM twice for every 1 HiS and 2 SoM heals for more than 1 HiS.

If you have a build that utilizes CnD, then you SE is going off every time you CnD, which is one of the reasons I stated that SoM is superior unless you don’t have a CnD build, and even then it’s debatable.
