Guild Wars 2

I am new to the idea of WVW and I am fearfully looking to get started. I am not currently a member of a guild. I know that my server (Eredon Terrace) and another are both significantly outnumbered by the third member of our group in play. We seem reduced to small wedges on the map amidst their blob. I am not sure how that will affect me as a new guy walking in alone.

I am attempting to create a build I can be happy playing and find I need advice from veteran players to flesh it out into something workable, useful, and fun. Here is a link to my build in progress at GW2 Skills dot net:

I was thinking the GS/LB combo will provide solid AOE and single target damage potential with good combat mobility. For traits, I attempted to capitalize on those characteristics and found the adrenaline provided bonuses attractive. As you can see, I had no points left for the defense line.

That dictated some of my utility skill choices (SOR to build adrenaline and the heal to benefit from it.) I am thinking bull’s rush might help me hit with 100B by means of the knockdown. I keep reading that bolas are bugged or suck so I didn’t take them but might consider it. I have immobilize breaks (traited) and condition removal by means of SOS (which will help dodges.)

I have no idea what to put in the last utility skill slot for best results. What would you recommend?

I am also brain dead on how to gear this character for best results in play. I have a hard ground cache of coin to craft and buy exotic gear with but I don’t want to mess up. I am trying to make the character good at something by focusing but I worry over the lack of toughness. Should I go Knight, Berserker, hybridize, something else? How do you recommend I gear him? What sigils and runes?

I am also wondering what consumables I should carry to buff the character up with?

Any advice you can offer is appreciated. Thank you.
