Hello all,
To start things off I love the “feel” of playing a warrior in GW2. I have been playing for a good bit now, and I like all the different weapons/ abilities available. I have been trying to work on a different build for myself since I feel my build is more def./ CC built for a more offensive minded one. Here is the point to all this, I am working on tryin to find a build that will be dependable in all the GW2 has to offer. I enjoy both the PVE as well as the PVP. Currently I am running 10/0/30/10/20 with a hammer and sword and shield. Have been looking into DWing with a sword and board. Seems like a ton of warriors are running around with greatswords in both pvp and pve. Maybe I am missing something minus the hundred blades. Just looking for a few different ideas on how ppl like to run and its advantages and disadvantages. Thanks in advance, have a great one!

I’ve been experimenting with full discipline burst builds lately. Weapon swapping is a bit buggy at the moment (often still takes 10 secs), but I enjoy it so much that I put up with it.

Essentially, the top tier discipline trait that causes bursts to cost less allows you to use a burst skill at 2 or 3 levels and immediately swap weapons and use its burst at 1 level. So, from there you can make builds that combo chained bursts.

Some interesting ideas…
- Longbow Burst + Hammer Burst = 3x Might
- Hammer or Mace burst + Sword Burst (with 50% crit on Stun Trait) = Many on Crit Procs
- Mace Burst + Hammer burst = Extra long stun
- Trait that causes you to gain endurance with a burst gives you 2 extra dodges per 10 seconds

My favorite by far is chaining longbow and hammer. So much AoE damage, mobility and control.
