Build critique
What traits are you running? Also, if you like the hammer but miss the gs why not run both?
Well currently your build is more hammer focused which in my mind is for mitigating damage with the use of CC which is geared towards PvP and WvW. Both are all about control.
In dungeons and fotm, most mobs ignore your CC or have Defiant stacks making hammer sub pair in these situations.
I’ve actually switched to a Axe / Mace and Longbow or Sword / Axe build now which I much prefer over GS (the only good thing about it was 100 blades which rooted). Mace also gives a bit of CC and with the vuln stacks damage is still pretty good.
If your curious. I’m running 30/0/0/10/30
I was in coe, and it took 4 swipes from my gs to down one of those exploding bots in path 1, while it took 3 from the hammer. The burst from the hammer is useful I think since it stuns anything around it. The hammer seems so slow, but it just seems to hit harder.
Titan, the only reason I used gs was for the 100b, the damage w might was insane, how does your a/m or s/a compare to it?
I was thinking on switching yet again, and using a hammer — sword/shield, with maybe 30 20 20.
For my traits I had endure pain, fgj and the stamina sigil thing.
