Guild Wars 2

I am using this build currently:

http://www.gw2builds.org/view/858003/max_damage_build

And it suggests going for Berserker items (Power, Precision, crit dmg)

I was thinking I’d get Berseker stats on ALL my items, and put Ruby Orbs in all of them, but a friend of mine says I shouldn’t go all “glass cannon”, but rather get some items with toughness too. Any opinions/suggestions would be appreciated.

first off: theres a lot of scorn for 5 sig warrs (although thats 4 sigs… its not much better), signet of fury and dolyak signet… arent good (although supposedly getting buffed… "/)
second: full berserker warrs can excel in pve (well… dungeons) but only if played well; and may not work well in some pugs
third: that link is outdated ‘Game Version: BWE #1’
fourth: you lack a cleanse
fifth: you lack a stun breaker

Depends what you’re doing. General PvE? It’s so faceroll you can do anything, may as well keep it quick. Dungeons? Warriors are almost expected to be full berserker, but I find balancing damage and survivability to be more reliable. If you’re a dungeoneering master and know it all like the back of your hand then by all means go full zerker (Mandatory in COF1.)

PvP/WvW is just trying out different things. I stay full berserker and keep that PvE mentality going, kill things quick before you have to heal. Our healing is garbage and we won’t out-endure anything…

And never go full signets, you’re allowed two and two only (Signet of Rage and Stamina.) Even with the upcoming buff, it may still take a while for people to accept it as a valid build, whether it actually becomes valid or not is still unknown.
