Guild Wars 2

I started with the signet build and popped on a GS out of the gate. I leveled my warrior to 35 and decided I wanted to start doing dungeons so went full utility. Mace-Shield/Hammer. After 4 levels I could not do it anymore. While it does add some extra funzies most notably pain suppresion and a group cleanse, I felt I was more of a hindrance than an asset to my group. I will say battle standard rezzes were amazing but If I were putting in the damage my signet build can generate this fight would be over.

So, to make a long story short I took what I learned, went back to the signet build… but compromised and put down the GS and took up a Hammer/Rifle set instead. I am very pleased so far but wishing I could do leetsauce damage and still use my shouts ><

You can you just need to learn when to use your skills

Have you tried Axe/Axe? It’s actually really fun.

I was Mace/shield for a while, but now I have changed to sword/shield, I find it outputs a lot more damage than the mace shield combo but still gives you quite a bit of utility.

I also use Mace/Warhorn in my secondary slots which combined with signet of rage can give me permanent swiftness which is great for running around.

I really should give this GS/signet build a try everyone seems to think its good
