Guild Wars 2

Ok, sorry if this question has been asked before I apologize, but I was 1v1ing a warrior last night and then a different one in Spvp later and I couldn’t for the life of me do any damage.
I had to get six stacks of bleeding on the first warrior before his health even started dropping, which wasn’t hard, but fairly difficult to keep up all the time.
Then the second warrior two Ele’s couldn’t bring him down before his whole team showed up.
So I know about the actual invulnerability skill, but neither one of them were using that during most of the fight, so I guess my question is:
How do you guys keep your health so full all the time, and would you be willing to offer some tip to fight these hard to kill warriors?
~80 Ele, S/F

Really? I’d love to know this setup. I get killed by almost everything as a GS warrior.

He was probably running healing signet and had toughness gear. Ele’s are my easiest fight 1 v 1, but pose a serious issue when paired with other enemies (i.e. I get snared and they can almost one shot me, though these are zerker D/D).

Yes you fought a healing signet warrior who must have stacked health or toughness. The problem with healing signet is that it is passive, with no chance of negating its effectiveness save poison. Personally what I would like to see the healing signet become is lowering its passive healing(not as low as the guardians virtue, since healing signet is not a class mechanic but a healing skill) but giving it a MUCH stronger active effect. Rangers Troll Ungent comes to mind as a very useful active effect.

Thanks guys, appreciate the answers and quick replies.

Likely stacking health. IIRC, bleeding is not affected by toughness.

Healing signet with such high base defense and health pool makes warriors tough targets. Sadly, eles don’t have much to offer in regards to killing warriors.

Reducing healing potency through effects like poison help substantially. You’re also going to need a lot more than six stack of bleed to take anyone down, sadly.
