Guild Wars 2

Since your only asking about runes, and your only asking which ones from a list you provided. Go with the Ruby Orbs or the Ogre.

I have a lot to say about the rest of your choices and I am sure a lot of other people would too. I looked at the build and it raised an eyebrow. But since your not asking for any other advice than that Ill just leave it there GL to you.

What would you suggest otherwise? Though keep in mind I would like to stay away from all Berserk that people keep saying, its just not fun to me. And I do not have the resourced needed for another set of armor. I used to run Shouts with Soldiers ect for WvW, that’s why my armor is what it is.

The idea of the build was to try to stay balanced, and use burst skills a lot to have 100% fury and might. while also supplementing with other boons.

I would love a build that uses Mace/Shield though to be honest, love the weakness and blocking that comes with it, just nothing good was popping into my head.

Yeah, because being effective in PVE isn’t fun

I know that is sarcasm, but it really isn’t. Cookie cutter builds are lame. Any dim wad can be it, and play it. This game blows. Thanks for very little.

If anyone has any REAL suggestions and not just sarcastic comments to finding a middle ground between enjoy-ability and functionality, I am more than welcome to hear it.

In the mean time, back to the drawing board and to the websites with 101 builds on them. le Sigh

What do ya’ll think of something along the lines of Sword+Shield, Runes of Perplexity, some +Condi Gear, and Distracting Strikes.

Or I’ll just delete my Warrior and play my Guardian.

With signet mastery signet of rage has 48 sec cooldown with 5 stacks of might and fury for 30 secs. For Great justice gives fury for 8 secs and 3 stacks of might for 25 secs.

What that means is you have only 10 secs where you have no fury at any given time. And you have mo issues getting might forceful great sword might on crit and the above mentioned. That means 2 warriors in a party = Perma fury.

Keep the soldiers armor and just put ruby orbs in it. I suggest to you to change your trinkets to Zerker though. Change the weapon to zerker too. You are not helping your group if you are not doing damage.

If you actually have a celestial amulet and a celestial GS I suppose you can keep that if you are on a budget but get rid of the clerics stuff. If you have that Karka shell i suppose you can keep that also but zerker everything else and ruby orbs in the soldier armor.

Use GS and on swap Axe/mace

30 in Str pick up either great fortitude if yo u need to feel more tanky but the off hand training is better. Slashing power, and Berserkers might.

25 in arms. Rendering strikers Vulnerability on Crit helps the who party. Forceful great sword no explaination, and 25 point minot trait 10%damage to bleeding foes.

15 in discepline Signet mastery.

Healing sig, For great justice, Banner of Discipline or Str depending on what the party needs, and dolyack sig if you want more tanky and a stun break. Signet of rage.

There you have a great balanced build that does good damage and helps the group.

I would get rid all your healing power gear, it’s useless. I would also trade in you PVT for a Valkyrie/Cavalier/Zerk mix with either ruby orbs or runes of Ogre. Then your build would be viable. You would still have decent survivability and will be able to bring good DPS. Also take thos 10 points out of tactics and put them in discipline to pick up signet mastery.

So I am pretty much as “tanky” as I need to be just by my armor alone? And thank you very much. I just noticed the amount of Vuln I could put on with Axe/Mace. and I am assuming I should probably roll shake it off for the condi removal, since the build kinda lacks in that.

Yes its tanky enough. If you want more VIT like i said pick up great fortitude. If you want more armor use dolyak signet. But like you said you are on a budget and want to keep most of what you had just make the changes I recommended and I think it will be an improvement without breaking the bank.

I like the 15 in Disc.

Question though. Is Berserker’s Might better than Furious.

Seems like Furious has more potential for Adrenalin production.

If you are going with the suggestions that Warlord gave you, you will have no problems gaining adrenaline. Plus the idea of that build is to not use your adrenaline. You get the most DPS out of it that way. You 100B, rush, Whirlwind, swap to Axe, AA, Axe 2 Mace 4, swap, 100B, rush, Whirlwind and repeat as needed.

2 Questions?

AA?
and
How is my DPS increased by not using adrenaline?

Should Berserker’s Might be Berserkers Power? That makes a little more sense to me with what you said.
