Guild Wars 2

Did you feel it could get decent damage compared to tankier stuff, and/or did it seem any useful amount more survivable than berserk?

I was considering something like this, in PvE obviously. Probably wouldn’t be the ideal way to do it but I was being lazy and built for brief fights and lack of effort where a banner would get annoying – and assumed deep strikes, like, works or something. Signet for more dodges and emergency condition removal, second axe to swap for might and build adrenaline (since the gear relies a bit on the adrenaline for crits/dmg, and I may sometimes feel like pressing F1).

Food is expensive IIRC but there are cheaper versions, and the one that just adds power and precision without crit damage. No idea how much the oil is worth since I make it.

I tried building valk + cav for a mace/GS build. However I found the vitality kinda wasted. I’m building berserker + cav now.

As in you had so much HP it was unnecessary? Because if so, I might run that XD

Were you getting crits via stuns then?

I suppose cavalier/berserk would make it easier to still get a high crit chance with a greater variety of builds, if the toughness proved to be enough defence. I was mainly considering this for content like invasions and some temple events, when stuff is being hurled at you from all directions, LOS-ing doesn’t really work because nobody else is or there’s nothing within the leash distance anyway, and you can only see to dodge from one way at a time. Mostly I’ll just go ranged or tank and use CC, but ranged is boring and CC only works on trash anyway.
