Guild Wars 2

Hi
I have a similiar topic in the Guardian section. So here is the deal, i want to become a commander. My server have been suffering a lot with a lost of alot of players in the WvW and so I want to become a commander and try to help invert the situation.

I Have a topic like this in the Guardian section because I have a lvl 80 Guardian, but I also have a lvl 29 Warrior. After researching for builds for Warrior I have found this that I would love to try but with the recent balance changes I want to know if you guys think is still viable (my knowledge for Warrior is still very limited)

Here is the video:

And here is the build:

What do you think of this? Still works? Are there better options?

10/0/30/30/0 sure is tanky, but not using hammer in a commanding build is such a waste. I actually prefer this.

You get lots of control, lots more toughness. And with all your stances you can become immune to everything, CC, Conditions, and damage. The damage you get with the knight/cavalier mix is so much better than the health from full soldier.

You want the health. You want full PVT. Ignore damage, your one and only concern is staying alive. Forget damage. I can’t see the build but running full stances is what I do. However, shout is still a brilliant option.

The difference in effective health between full knight/cavalier and full soldier is only 10k, and the dmg you you get from knight/cavalier makes it a lot more worth it IMO. Not to mention the higher toughness you have the more benefit you get from passive heals like healing signet, regeneration, and adrenal health.

commander doesn’t need damage imo. just go full clerics with shout heal.

I agree, the only build of mine that uses PVT is my Commanding build. Full PVT with soldier runes 10-0-30-30-0 Shout Hammer/SwWh. My focus is not to kill stuff but stay alive and keep my zerg alive so that they can kill stuff.

Even if it was only 10k, you want that 10k. However, it is around 20k. You always want full PVT gear. Personally, I go with 4/6 resistance runes and 2/6 melandru runes so conditions melt off me. But that’s just me

It still works, and I still use it. I have updated the build some since then. Not sure how that rifle keeps sneaking in there. Here is the updated link:

I actually just uploaded a couple of videos to the channel yesterday showing some of what it can do. If you want to do massive damage, there are definitely better options. If you want to survive at all costs, I haven’t found a better option yet.

Thanks for the update guys
But I decided to stay with my Guardian. I just don’t know how long I will command (only tried once yet, but I did not found any major treat at that time, but zerg combat is meh for me)

This build looks like a good option.
