Guild Wars 2

Hello again everyone!

After testing multiple builds for my other characters, I’ve finally come back to my warrior and settled on this wacky hybrid build that I’ll post below. The build itself is taken from a not-so popular roaming build though I’ve changed the gear and concept around quite a bit. The idea is provide decent direct damage with the condi addition while still having enough survivability to feel “tanky.” The limitation I’ve found is that with just the sword leap, the mobility is pretty lacking. Still, being able to use the off-hand sword to deflect is fun as most ranger’s I’ve seen fall into the 1112111 trap and almost kill themselves.

Anyways, can you “smart” folks look at this and give me a few suggestions? The build is based on the gear I currently have.

Hybrid S/S Roamer

No hybrid, just rampager with mix and match armor

EDIT:
is not rampager sorry, is more like Celestial and my suggestion is to just change the sigils to try to take advantage of Runes and added stability

Sentinel gear is bad for any spec, I’d rather use Carrion for hybrid. Krait runes are awesome with close-ranged condi specs who focus on bleeding and have a “short” CD on their elites. Sigils of Doom will give you acces to poison on weapon swap, a condition you’d lack otherwise. I’d swap Endure Pain for Dolyak Signet, more Toughness never hurts, neither does Stability on demand. I’d go 0/5/5/0/4 to get armored attack in the defense line, as it synergises with your high toughness. Dogged March vs Missile Deflection is a matter of personal choice, I prefer the first though.

Unfortunately your mobility will be bad without a GS, thats the only reason I stick to power-based Warrior builds for roaming.

FinalPatriot this is what i been using hybrid on my warrior. You can switch the food for condi + duration and with all the might you get and also how fast people actually drop really fast. Is a fun build.

This may be a stupid question but w/o sig of stamina, how you are surviving against heavy condi burst classes? Also, you’re armor is pretty low, don’t you find that to be a problem against a glass build?

Normally the stance is all that i need for it. This build is more like u need to be super offensive in a way they get scare since the damage just go up most people get scare and just try to get away, but with the torment and bleed then if they try to run you just use that long bow and they prob either dead or doing all the thing to cleanse those condi but since ur not suppose to give them the time to recover and cleansing ire with the long bow is really easy to also cure conditions. Normally i can enter with 2 of swords then 4 and some AA use the block if he is on range for the attack, switch to LB number 3 in his face some AA then the blind and 5 then the full burst of F1 and 3 then switch again for the fireshield and get a lot more of might. The build is kinda glass cannon but it hurst in both direct damage and condis also many fights can finish quickly with just the initial burst and once they are half dead use that number 3 on Sword.

Coldnemessis,

Do you find that your build works well for PvP? I’d like to play around with it a bit before I consider changing out gear sets – again. I’m so used to having around 2.9-3k+ armor on my warrior that it would be a huge change to go to more of a glass build.

Also, why go with the aristocracy runes as you’re never really using a heal ability?

I believe sinister is not available in pvp i think. True but i wanted the condition damage with the might duration %, since i use 2 sigils plus the trait that give me might. The build is still on testing, sinister armor is cheap to craft and the runes are from a dungeon so i think u can test it out with out really losing huge gold. The sigils are pretty cheap compare to other builds too. Who knows maybe u will like it or find a way to tune it better to ur liking .

I run a 0/6/4/4/0 for wvw and pvp. I run rabid in pvp and dire in wvw, both with krait runes. It’s works pretty good
