Build WvW roaming/zerk.... Tips?
or should I stick with power berserker (greatsword/axe-shield)?
Viper>sinister for hybrid builds…id try something like this:
It has higher boon uptime, longer condi durations, higher power, higher toughness, higher vitality and better utilities for roaming…should do more direct damage, more condi damage with durations extended, and be slightly tankier if not more so then that with almost 100% resistance uptime and double endure pain with adrenal health. The biggest issue will be escaping with no gs and no warhorn, also no balanced stance.
You can take balanced stance or dolyak signet over outrage…dolyak if you want to be tankier, balanced stance if you want access to swiftness

Condi warrior doesn’t seem to be too strong anymore these days in comparison to a warrior running Marauders, cavalier, zerker or a mix of those. It used to be really good, but there is so much condi clear out there now that raw damage seems to be the better way to go for warrior.
Here is my roaming build: http://asphyxia.tv/wvw-roaming-warrior-build/
I run axe/mace and rifle with Cavalier armor and zerker trinkets. If I am feeling like being a little more squishy I will run marauder armor and zerker trinkets. Both are a good combination.

This build is not that great, shield>mace offhand, no condi clears except on weapon swap and no berserker stance. It also doesnt use smash brawler which is a huge loss in dps just to get stab when entering berserker. Very little might generation, it can create a lot of single target vulnerability but other then it seems to be sub par as it wont survive long against any condi class. Might i recommend this if you want a lil better build?
Better condi clears, higher damage output, better might generation, and frontline worthy toughness and vitality

I don’t really care for shield personally and my build is for roaming in small groups where I usually have an ele or guardian constantly clearing conditions with me. I clear 2 conditions every time I go in to berserk mode and clear 1 every time I weapon swap also. I never really cared for berserker stance personally, but that is just a preference thing. You could always drop the signet for “Shake it Off” or Berserker stance if that is what you’d like to do. Mace offhand provides necessary CC to use in smaller fights. The build is meant to be very offensive, not defensive.
I have a different build that I play for front line warrior that is more defensive. This is what I use for front line: http://asphyxia.tv/wvw-front-line-warrior/
But he wanted a roaming set up, not a front line set up.
