Guild Wars 2

So uhm yeah i almost made it to ruby, but its getting really hard right now..

I am no pro player but atleast a good average player, i play gs/rifle berserker build and till halfway sapphire i did fine! i killed most people 1v1 with gunflame and played more like a thief (+1)

But now?? i dont know why i am even playing warr.. its hurting my team bad!
I only face metabuilds right now and i can SPAM 10x gunflame or whatever to them and they dont even dodge a crap, they dont give a kitten about it, they heal so fast and got sooo much sustain that they just eat it all and facewalk right over me.

So at this point:
-My role is like a thief (+1) but my dmg doesnt seem to make any difference at all
-i provide NO support for my team (neither defense or offensive buffs)
-i cant ress! like NEVER! sure pop your endure pain or whatever and try ressing.. your dead right after it
-i am slower then thief or even rev
-i cant hold a point because they just aoe bomb you in the face while tanking in the same time.

Sure warrior gs/rifle is allot of fun and pretty solid in 1v1.. but right now in tpvp i feel like a waste of time!

We all know it, not really new.. but i kept thinking it would be better by now (with some minor nerfs to those classes) but in the end nothing changed..

dunno what to say more, ow yeah 1 more thing.. ppl really dont like to see a warrior in there team :-P it makes them mad and i get allot more hate stuff/wispers these days.

Well good luck warriors!

Try this build friend, it has helped me tremendously. I simply call it ‘burn warrior’.

With Outrage and Rousing Resilience you can have almost permanent 4000 toughness plus a burn and stun-break. You can change a couple sigils, but always keep burning duration on your sword. With the sword’s primal Flaming Flurry, you can inflict 8-10 burn stacks. I’ve beating a lot of reapers/revs one on one with this build, but you have to be relentless. I think you’ll enjoy it more than gunflame, since direct damage is easier to heal than conditions.

I’ve played a varient of that build. taking CI and mace+torch, sword+shield and signet of stamina over zerker stance. it’s alright. better than gunflame vs people who can play, but playing another class is the real way to go.

It’s much better than gunflame. Gunflame was just tacked on because warriors were struggling in the first season, but it’s just a one-trick pony. Burn warrior is much more reliable.

Well I’m somewhat ashamed to say I went ele for the season cause war is so weak

I mainly play this and I get great results, as in around 20 win streak. I’m not at home now, but on the 4th day after season started (when I left) I was mid ruby with 25-30 wins and 1 loss (23 win streak) and I didn’t play that much pvp:

Hey guys thanx for the info! i might test some of that stuff (well most build i have done in the past)

@obindo, yeah that build does give allot of mobility, dont like rampage much but it can be great in team play, btw burst mastery is bugged if you didnt know (the dmg part, dont be fooled by the tooltip btw… the real dmg issnt buffed) but somehow between rampage i wonder what to do with this build? run around? capping nodes would be fast/good with this build, and when rampage is up go help team. but between that.. ?

I use burst mastery for the adrenaline; cleansing ire and berserker’s power benefit from it and after immob I can swap to gs and instant arcing. Rampage is great for snowballing/wiping/cluthing a team fight / downstate cleave.
I’d say I play like this lol:

(sorry couldn’t find english title for it)
Ofc I not precisely like that, I just had to. I make due without rampage completely, that I forget to use it sometimes. So I mainly use rampage for cleave and ensure/wipe that 3v3/4v4.
Wish I could show examplary footage but I’m not home ^^

This build is fairly solid. My advice is create an engineer. Hotkey all of their skills and keep playing engi/scrapper until you have all of the keybinds memorized to the point you can find them quickly on the keyboard without looking. Keep playing engineer until you can competently win and survive Aoe/cleave situations. Then return to warrior. Accurately hitting keybinds and keeping your eyes on the screen makes Pvp on melee professions a lot easier in the long run once you have trained your fingers to be nimble. However, once you have gotten use to engineer, you may not wanna go back to warrior.
