Guild Wars 2

Hi, when I was choosing class and whatnot I read lots of stuff here and there.

One thing I picked up was that warrior has good mobility, however was I misled?
I personally have huge trouble having “good mobility” I am running axeshield gs and I am weapon swapping 24/7 to try use my full cycle of skills on the swap cd time. But I am almost always having massive trouble on catching up and sustaining damage vs run n fight people, and generally I dont feel any “good mobility” apart from gs 5 skill that has HUGE cd.

Any tips what to do to increase mobility? Might be any basic tips since Im completely new to the game.

Also is jumping evading attacks or is there some other interaction there? I felt owned when fighting warrior who was spamming jump in fight, and Im curious if it had impact or I just overall lost, he didint even switch from GS ;(

Also Im having trouble with my berserk, I have learned that its super ez to keep it up in pve, and I seem to have learned alot bad stuff regarding that matter and now Im struggling having berserker uptime on WvW.

You choose the wrong class, in the beginning back in 2012 when the game came out, warrior had the best mobility, but people complained and out mobility was butchered. Whoever told you to choose a warrior probably did not read the patch notes over the past 5 years.

The best mobility (along with deception and cliff climbing) is as follows:

• Thief
• Ranger
• Elementalist
• Mezmer
• Warrior
• Guardian (if using trapper runes mobility with deception can surpass warrior)
• Necro (you will forever be the guy on the back line)

Oh and if you ever decide to play other builds that don’t use great-sword, then warrior will be ranked on the lowest scale of mobility, even lower than necro.

It’s possible that the warrior you were fighting was doing a jump dodge (hit jump and dodge together). I do that myself, because (1) it’s kitten (jk), (2) it prevents your movement beinkittened by uneven ground or obstacles, (3) compared with normal jumping, you get more distance out of it (not relevant to a fight, since it’s the same distance as a normal dodge).

As Hitman said, though, it’s about middle of the pack for mobility now. I’d put the warrior higher on the list than he does, but only when vertical distance isn’t a factor (i.e. teleporting classes can leave us in the dust when teleporting up verticals).

We’re way more sustainable now than we used to be when we were more mobile though. The healing, blocks, and invulns are all better now for us than before.

That all said, I run (traited) gs, sword, bull’s charge, and warrior’s sprint for mobility. The sword means I’ve sacrificed some real damage for mobility, when compared with your axe.
