Zarin Mistcloak(THF) Valkyrie Mistblade(WAR) Kossori Mistwalker(REV) Durendal Mistward(GRD)
I used to think (build op, pls nerf) like you, but then I took a nerf to the knee.
I’m currently running the below build for WvW roaming/havoc groups as a Warrior. As of late though, I’ve felt the need to improve it a little.
It’s a modified shout heal build, with leanings toward bunker (And furious speed because 100% uptime in combat with Tactics boon duration.)
Are there any large gaps that could be patched up with a little tweaking (or is it just absolutely terrible, I’d like to hear those opinions too)? I normally disengage thieves with this build, but I’d like to start eating them while still remaining somewhat mobile.
it looks like a condi build from the weapons and traits but the gear is power based?
I use something very similar for WvW, right down to the Knight gear and the Trooper runes. However, I use Sword/Warhorn or Sword/Mace and Hammer, along with the trait allowing shouts to generate adrenaline (a huge amount), and triple shout. Not really saying my build’s better, but I find it works well in zerg v. zerg, going in with Earthshaker and getting out with Savage Leap to disrupt their lines. It does pretty well in small engagements too, being tanky enough to avoid being targeted, while doing surprising enough damage to scare off squishies or outright kill them. Sword/Sword and Longbow is what I use for spvp, but that’s as full condition and triple stances like a true scumbag.
I tend to swap traits and utilities as needed as well, typically moving the last point out of Discipline to grab Cleansing Ire if I feel more conditions coming on. If going mace in the offhand, I change Quick Breathing to Leg Specialist.

uhh… either swap all your gear to dire, and take deep cuts, or change your entire trait and weapon setup and go for a power build.
you can’t do what you’re doing now and not be gimping yourself.
Agreed. either switch the weapon or switch the gear to go conditional or hybrid.
