Pssh…Hammers warrs are kittening great! :P
For PvP, you could run Hambow.
Hambow is great for point control and team fights. (Don’t listen to those people that say Hambow is for terribads. I use it sometimes and I’ve been playing warrior since beta!)
I think the new meta for Hambow is:

Traits:
0
0
6 – III, IX, X
2 – I
6 – VI, VIII, XI

Weapons:
Hammer/Longbow (hence the term Hambow ;P)

Armor:
Superior Rune of Strength (Because full might stacks is kittening op!)
Soldier’s Rune

Utilities:
Healing Signet (cause healing sig too stronk)
Balanced Stance
Dolyak Signet
Beserker’s Stance
Signet of Rage

For WvW I run pretty much the same build that Ryota posted.
Hope this helps!

For PvP go with a soldier’s rune or zerker’s rune for Hambow and I’d say a mix of PvT and zerk armor for the WvW build.

Here’s is what i’ve been using to great success, though it requires some expensive runes.
It has great survivability, along with good damage and CC.

Link to build and gear is in description.

For wvw the hammer is the must have! In pve yes… Hammer is meh…
What i use: knight armor and weapons hammer/sword+wh soldier/dolyak/melandru runes or just ruby orbs with a mixed set of pvt/knight/zerker/celestial (your pick) trinkets. The point is the 3.3k ++ armor (i have 3.6k)
I use 1/0/6/4/3 traits and if you dont have an organized guild zerg i suggest healing signet, balanced stance and endure pain, dolyak signet + banner elite.

WSR→Piken→Deso→Piken→FSP→Deso
Just the WvW

Thanks aton guys! right now i am running traits 0/0/6/6/2 3 parts Knight/ 3 parts solider armor with tropper runes 6/6, Solider hammer with a berserker bow, with knight earings/rings and solider neck. Skills are healing sig, shake it off, for great justice, balance stance, and battlestandard. it seems to be working out very good for me! in PVP i just own crap, in WvW i do pretty good! i was thinking about going for Dolyak signet tho cause the reduce incoming dmg seems OP but im not sure about a base % for it?

Does anyone know how much reduce dmg % it does? and it is worth dropping For great justice?

I go 0/0/4/6/4. I prefer destruction of the empowered over armored attack.
