Guild Wars 2

Completed this last night. Pretty fun.

Pros:
Can take a beating
Can still hurt people
Constant swiftness which is great in WvW
Quick switching between weapons

Cons:
Lack of gap closer in melee
Lacks the escapability that comes with 1h sword / 2h sword skills

This is really more of an Axe & Board WvWvW build, but yeah, I get your meaning. Off topic, why did you skin a Corrupted Skeggox over a Destroyer Axe? Back on topic, is the perma swiftness worth the loss of mobility skills from say the sword/greatsword/hammer? Are the two regen heals from the signet and adrenal health enough to sustain you in longer high pressure combat scenarios? I’m just curious as to the details of your experience.

I actually found this double regen effect is better too for the warrior sword and shield build I use. While I was testing it out, for some reason my heal was always on cooldown when I needed it. When I tested the double regen, there were less times when I actually needed it. At that point I could break away easily enough and use the signet heal. While the signet was on cooldown, the trait regen was still going.

Not to mention it’s completely passive, which lets you focus more on what else is going on at the moment.

I choose Skeggox because the blue shine matches well with the Flameseeker shield.

I’d say the perma-swiftness is at best an equal tradeoff. It can help in escaping in instances, but is very useful for map travel. I take in account my toughness/blocking/survivability for escape.

I don’t view regen as a lifesaver in major battles, but love the 16 second cooldown on the heal.
