I’m currently closing in on level 80 with my WvW Warrior, a class I leveled exclusively for WvW Zerg warfare.

However I’m still a little undecided on how to gear and trait him for this particular purpose, especially in light of the upcoming changes to Ferocity. I know that it is common practice to gear a Warrior with Soldier armor and Berserker Accessories thanks to their generous Crit-Damage. But that’s probably going away with the future update.

So what gear would you advise? Pure Soldiers or still add some Berserker into the mix?

Same question regarding Runes. I was tending towards Melandru Runes but feel that with all the condition cleanse we have access to it might not pay off that much.

I’m also concerned that may Warrior might end up too tanky with too little offensive pressure if I stick with my current 0/0/30/10/30 build.

Anyway, what are your thoughts on building a perfect zerg-bot?

If you plan to frontline you need full out tank. That means 10/0/30/30/0 with full soldier, soldier runes, shout heals, and hammer+/Sw/Wh

Depends on what you want to do. Also it depends on how well you play.

Just gear up as you like and test it and test it. I don’t have berserker or soldier. I just geared to my play style and doing well thank you very much. I played almost all classes to understand how they play and how exploit their weakness. All to level 80.

This is the build I use and it’s about as tanky as a build can get. It’s possibly got the best survivability of any other build for any profession in the game. It does poop damage so if you want to help your team in zerg vs zerg, you have to be right up in the front absorbing damage. The best thing about this build is if you need wxp/karma, it’s very good at surviving a tough capture. It makes it more likely that you are able to survive until the capture circle goes up and survive in the capture circle to capture it.
