Guild Wars 2

Ok so I have no problem in PvE also im good when farming in Orr.All is fun got all exotic armor and weapons (cept for jewelry which is masterwork)
I got 26k hp 3k defense around 2400 attk and I think around 1200healing power(not including my weapon sigil).

Ok so im basicly a shout heal build 10 str (dmg boost on adrenaline)
30 armor ( shield bonus , defy pain)
30 tactics ( vigorious shouts)

Now the question is if this build is good for dungeons.
I have no problem clearing out Ascalonian its easy mode for me all 3 paths,Also caudecus manor(which seems bugged now appereantly).
Will I be able to handle like the Arah dungeon? From what I heard there is no difference from an offensive and defensive build in dungeons you still die in one hit,is that true?Secondly wont a Guardian take my place in healing or im good too?

bump , anyone? xD

Yes, you should be just fine for Arah. Especially path 3 which is easy-mode.

For the record there is a HUGE difference between glass and tanky specs in dungeons. Even Lupicus can’t 1-shot a tanky build warrior. It’s actually closer to 6-8 shots to drop you. Don’t listen to the hype from the glass cannon idiots.

Thanks man Time to grind some dungeons!

…lupicus can’t 1 shot glass cannons either. Not even close.

Healing shouts won’t help too much in Arah. Your best friends are projectile reflection and high damage.

I think a healing shout build might work well in pugs for “tanking” lupicus on paths 1-3. He tends to phasewalk the players with the highest toughness. Having him always phasewalk you would let you control his position and make it easier for your allies. But if you are new to Arah, you do NOT want lupicus to turn his attention to you.

Ive used the healing shouts build in all dungeons apart from Arah, i love it, I know the heals aren’t huge but thay have got me and the team out of a LOT of sticky situations, especially when the other classes have much lower HP than us.

Ive found the build to be quite tough generally but its like any build in a dungeon, its only going to work with intelligent movement to back it up.

The way to make it really shine is to use superior runes of the soldiers which have shouts remove conditions which is far more valuable than the heals. If you can stop the conditions in the first place then you have done far more for the groups survivability.
