Guild Wars 2

Hello. Right now im using full pow/vit/toughness gear with emerald jewelry and i have ruby jewels in them. I have been looking for what runes and sigils would be best for damage. And also if anyone knows some nice builds if they can post them not only for my benefit but also for any other people.

My best advice for WvW Hammer build, http://www.gw2db.com/skills/calc/warrior#1|0|11|65|919|226|1890|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|30|1084|1529|1491|30|1057|1507|1510|10|1104|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|

Hammer is decent damage and lots of CC. Getting full soldier runes and making it a shout build makes it great in WvW. Use sword/horn as off hand for those runaway breaks from a zerg. Tons of debuffs and aoe condition removal for a whole group and buffs. Use battle standard or signet of rage depending on your desires (more dmg/buffs rez). This build can always be tweaked for a little more dmg or utility. Switch between empowered and leg specialist if you want more CC or dmg. if you want to be slightly less juggernaut and balls deep type to a more defensive buffing type, switch sword/horn for bow and get longbow range increase and get shouts heal. Small sustain for the back lines and tower siege (both defend and offense). I still think warhorn is the best offhand in WvW for any warrior (too many buffs/anti snare to let go).

Thanks for the tips but the build in your link is empty.

I don’t like hammer in Wvw becasue there is too many ranged classes that will kite you. I think its decent in Spvp though. And can be a good situational weapon in WvW i just wouldn’t use it in open field combat.

I used to run Sword/Shield + Hammer. The concept basically was to leap in with the Sword, swap in with Hammer (Hydromancy Sigil – 3s Chill to everyone around you) do Earthshaker → Staggering Blow → Hammer Shock then swap back to your Sword/Shield and get out.

It’s pretty tanky and offers a lot of Crowd Control. I do suggest bringing in Balanced Stance and/or Endure Pain along with 30 in Defense just to make sure you stay alive as long as possible. Hope this helps!

How…how do you get kited while using a hammer? Spec 10 in tactics for leg specialist, and hammer shock is an immobilize, which is even better now that you can use it while running. Use bull rush to knock them down. Then use a backbreaker on them. Follow up with Hammer 4, knocking them back and down again. If you’re getting kited, you’re playing the hammer wrong.
