Hammer/bow spvp meta?
There’s not one yet. Many people are leaving the hambow build now after the nerf, but it still works to some extent, especially against players that can’t dodge hammer attacks.
Longbow / Dual Swords

Stand on point, Longbow F1, Sword 4, Dead and lost point.
Updated that as if you were to meet my warrior, a mesmer, meditation guardian or a postpatchthief.
The upside of the build is that is braindead easy to play though.
I use bow/dual swords too but I trait completely different. 0/25/20/0/15.
Deep cuts/Blademaster/Dogged March/Cleansing Ire/Warrior’s Sprint.
Healing Sig/Endure Pain/Berserker’s Stance/Signet of Stamina.
I’m sometimes torn between a stability skill and the signet, but that extra endurance gain is amazing, and I have a hard time letting it go.
And of course, all rabid gear with melandru runes.
Mesmers are the only real issue. Thieves and other warriors are a cakewalk.

0/0/30/10/30 and fire/strength/hoelbrak runes to stack might. It was suggested a few days ago and I’ve found it to be great. 20 or so stacks of might all the time and it helps account for the earthshaker damage reduction from the last patch.

I am using that, but instead of those runes i am using runes of Lyssa , since you can use elite skill almost every 5 sec you have 0 conditions on
There’s a lot of variant’s being thrown around but the thing most have in common is that they use 0/0/30/10/30. I’m not sold that the “HGH” build is the most optimal choice. It sacrifices a cleanse and boons in the form of Lyssa runes. I also find it easy to stack a decent amount of Might without specializing in it.
