New warrior build help
Tell me how you like to play. Are you a zergling or do you like small fights w/ some roaming. If you are a zergling then it really doesn’t matter. Zerglings do the typical hammer sward/warhorn shout build. If you are looking to do small fights and a bit of roaming then there are other options that are more fun and better.

I usually roam alone, and i like to have a good mix between survivability and dps
Ill give you the skull cracker build because right now that seems one of the best 1v1 and roaming builds.
0/6/5/0/3
Furious Speed/Forceful Great sword/Unsuspecting Foe
Dogged March/Cleasing Ire
Signet mastery
Mace/Shield /W sigil of Parilization in mace what you put in the shield doesnt make a difference whatever you want there. I like the remove condition on hit personally.
Greatsword /w Sigil of impact and whatever you want as a second sigil i like force.
Armor use a mix of Cavaliers and knights or valkrie or zerker. I like Cav on the chest/helm and pants.
Trinkets use Zerker but you can mix Cav with zerker here. I like cav amulet and earings rest zerker do what you want here.
Runes I like Hoelbrak with leek soup paired with dogged march. You can use whatever runes you want but if you want the mobility and not get shut down my immobilize spam hoelbrak is best here.
Skills. I like healing sig but u can use healing surge if u want o mending.
I like Zerkers stance bullscharge and dolyack signet and Signet of rage.
Object of game play is simple try to bait out the enemys stun breaks so they have none. Use your shield stance/and zerkers stance to mitigate damage. Use dolyack signet as a stun break and stability if u need it. Then use skill crack at full adrenaline immediately weapon-swap and do hundred blades while target is stunned to take advantage of the unsuspecting foe trait. Use the GS and bullscharge as mobility to close gaps of enemys trying to kite you or to escape. Rinse and repeat using various other skills until enemy is dead or until u are dead.

I’d like to try some new roaming build too…Warlord what kind of weapons do you suggest for your build? Always Cavalier or zerker ? And for stacks? Precision or Power ?

You can whatever weapon stats u want. I have a shiverstone mace and its celestial just cuz I didn’t bother to transmute it to zerker. I like zerker though on my GS and shield and mace.

Looks like a good build, but would using knights armor be bad on it? Cuz ive already got a full set of it, but no runes.

It would be kinda meh. The whole point of the build is you don’t need any crit chance on your gear because of the trait unsuspecting foe. That means you can just build for power toughness and ferocity since you have crit chance covered. Here’s my take on the skullcrack build.
The f1 skill on mace is called skullcracker and is a 3 second long stun. The reason mace is better is because of a master trait in the arms tree which increases your crit chance by 50% against stunned foes. There is also a sigil, called sigil of paralyzation that increases your stun duration by 30%. That adds a whole other second to skullcracker so that its actually 4 seconds long, which is extremely long for this game. There is also a sigil called sigil if impact which adds 10% more dmg to stunned foes. Putting that on your greatsword is huge as it basically gives you a free +10% dmg on your burst combo. There is also a trait in arms called forceful greatsword which reduces all the cooldowns of your greatsword skills by 20%, but it also grants you might for each critical hit you do with your greatsword. So each hit with 100b will just keep getting more and more powerful as you stack more and more might. The 15 point minor trait in discipline also synergies greatly with this build, reducing the cooldown on your weapon swap by 5 seconds. That means you never have to wait around for your swap to come off CD, you can always be swapping. This is what i personally use
Strength runes are currently the top dogs DPS wise for runes, and they synergies amazingly with forceful GS. Battle sigils as well synergies very well with the whole thing and its not uncommon to have 25 stacks of might after you use 100 blades. You should be hitting for a minimum of 15k with the whole skullcracker?100b combo. Also thanks to your very high fury uptime (boon that grants 20% critical chance) + unsuspecting foeyour 30% crit chance you built for you have 100% crit chance on every 100b. Its also extremely durable thanks to the blocks on mace and shield, evade and mobility on GS, 3k armor (very high in this game) and healing signet.
Just be careful and watch if people have the boon stability on their bar (immune to CC). Search gw2 skullcracker build on YouTube and your sure to get hundreds of results

What I run is similar. But has a different twist and is much much cheaper.

Mine has more emphasis on damage and might stacking, yours has much more emphasis on condition immunity. Both are good
