Guild Wars 2

Hi guys! I now run a crit/toughness hammer warrior build and have been in a good dungeon group with some guardians recently. And i admit i am a bit jealous of their team support capability, while being able to do decent damage. So i decided to plan out a build. I also would like to try sword, because the animatins are awesome and i think dual sword a bit underrated.
So here’s my build i tried to focus on Condi damage with a bit of Healing power.

Please let me know what you think about it.

I made an alternate for this build, with more toughness and precision, this way this build will have around 53% crit chance which provides decent adrenalin support. Also it has way more healing power.

Healing Power warriors fascinate me. I’ve partied with shout healers but I have never run into a banner healing warrior. Seems fun/interesting

I’ve been running Condition/Toughness/HP coupled with some rampagers for quit a bit of time now. 0/20/20/30/0 seems to work pretty decent in PvE, but with Sword/Shield, both traited. OH sword for PvE can be interesting, but I prefer more defensive style and torement doesn’t do full potential damage due to most of npcs not moving around often. It is fun, more versatile than shout builds because you use only one utility banner to get the 100% regen uptime effect, so you can adapt other two utilities pretty easily. I like to bring infamous FGJ for more support and bleeding and Balanced Stance. As for runes, I wouldn’t go for any +boon duration, maybe condition duration. For weapons, either Sigil of Earth if you do have some crit chance (having about self 10% crit is perfectly enough since you maintain fury on your own) or Sigil of Water if you like

With a build like that you’re not going to be doing much damage at all… Warriors are best when giving offensive support through banners of discipline and strength, for great justice and empower allies.

If you’re jealous of guardians make one… Even then a full berserker guardian supports just as well as a clerics one.

I don’t get why people actively choose to be bad in this game for the sake of being different.

If you’d like to provide mathematics supporting your claim that non-offensive support warriors are objectively bad I’d be happy to discuss it. Otherwise I’ll continue to give regen and cleanse conditions for my groups.

Common sense is all you should need… This game requires no healing support in PvE, condition removal is usually covered by a guardian or a mesmer with null field etc.

Regeneration is a weak boon in general, it’s certainly not enough to out heal any significant damage. You’re doing poor damage so mobs/bosses stay alive longer dishing out even more damage to your group and your “support” build is doing almost nothing to keep people alive.

If you’re still stubborn look at countless other threads on the subject matter…

in PvP regen works as players can’t deal same ammounts of dmg as bosses do.
