I’m tired of seeing my bags run away in WvW. I hear Warrior bros have good mobility, so that’s a good start.

What build would your recommend for CC? I’m not necessarily looking for hurrr durrr stun-gorilla build. Ensnare, cripple, or chill will work too.

TL;DR: please suggest a build that can provide excellent mobility and reliable CC.

ps: a Cool down > 40 seconds would not count as reliable.

Well, for CC, you will want to look into Mace MH and Hammer. The former sports an excellent single-target melee-range stun and a daze, whereas the latter has an excellent AoE stun, a single target knockdown, an AoE knockback and an AoE cripple.

For chasing people, your choices should be Sword MH or Greatsword. It’s very much a personal preference which you pick.

As for traits… Cleansing Ire is pretty much standard for all builds, so that’s a starting point of x/x/20/x/x. From there, you’ll probably want Burst Mastery to further boost the CC (which mostly comes from your burst skill), so that would be x/x/20/x/30. The last 20 depends on the combination of weapons you end up picking. 10/0/30/0/30 would be for Hammer for Merciless Hammer in Defense, 20/0/20/0/30 would be excellent for Greatsword for Slashing Power. Mace has 2 interrupts on fairly short cooldown, so I would also consider 20/0/20/0/30 for Macer for Distracting Strikes.
