Guild Wars 2

Hi all,

I’m starting a warrior. I primarily WvW. Are there any bow centric builds out there? What secondary weapons do you suggest?

If this is a hopeless cause, let me know.

Thanks!

I run a bow as a crit/cond hybrid, works well with sword/sword or sword shield as second.

Run sigil of earth for 60% on crit (all the time ) to proc a stack of bleeding as well.

Bow Centric? Hmm does not seems something that would work very good…

but Condi warriors use bow to a great extent. Swords/X – Longbow. You are gonna use the bow a lot.

that could be your best bet

What utility skills do you slot?

signets, to make use of the +40 precision on unused signets, which also gives you 8 seconds of stability( Dolyak) , constant regen (healing), attacks unblockable 10 secs (might) condition removal, all (stamina) and fury might and swiftness (Rage)

if you are talking about PvP I do not see Signet of Might as a good choice at all:

One can never go wrong with the evergreen Trinity:

Balanced stance
Berserker Rage
Endure Pain

It also depends on your build, if you have Signets recharge you might prefer DOLYAK instead of Balanced stance.

You might also drop Endure Pain to get something else if you wants more utility and less defensive options.

I used to run a Power based Longbow/GS build in WvW for group play…it can be nice dropping a 10k Arcing shot onto 5 people at once and watch them melt in a fire field.

But they supposedly nerfed or bugged the trait “Furious” which was staple to having a constant fire field down.
