One way to enjoy a Warrior as a DPS.
I’m new to warrior. This looks very fun. Can someone please explain how to do this chain-stun? Traits, stats, key sequence?
Nice mouse clicks on signet of rage
I use a similar setup for sPVP. You can get amazing chainstuns/knockdowns + great survivability from this build:
http://guildwars2grandmaster.com/builds/warrior-control-tank/
It’s specced 30/0/30/0/10, and uses a Mace/Shield as the main weapon set. I utilize a Greatsword for the secondary swap set. I lose ranged capabilities (rifle is a great weapon) but I make up for it by being able to stun them or use Bolas then unleash Hundred Blades on a target for massive damage.
You damage isn’t incredibly impressive and you can sometimes have trouble with ranged builds that stack conditions, but your opponent is locked down for most of the fight because of your interrupts, anyway, so if you’re continually stunning them like you should be, their DPS will be demolished.
The build from Grandmaster is a physical build so that means you’re going to be in the middle of the fracas, therefore you should grab as much toughness and vitality as possible. In PVE and WvW my warrior is a glass cannon and I use an entirely different build, but for sPVP I love this build because I can literally sit on a point to defend it and no one can take it from me. I use the Soldier’s Amulet, Dolyak runes, + Paralyzation sigils (Sigil of Battle on my Greatsword) to keep myself up and to keep the enemy down.

Woah. Why the hate? He asked about builds, so I answered his question about a possible stun build. No need to get all testy.

Yeah well your build isn’t relevant to the concept of the video though.. sorry if it came out bad but he’s asking for the build I used.

Well you didn’t answer his question so I did. I couldn’t see your traits so I obviously couldn’t tell him your build. So I told him the stun build I used.
They’re fairly similar, at least in concept.
Though if you want MAXIMUM stun, go for Hammer, though IMO it doesn’t have as effective DPS pressure as a Greatsword.

Hammer is for Tank and Mace is for DPS. The whole concept of the video is enjoying Chain-stun as a DPS.
I only enjoy Hammer if I’m using 10/0/30/30/0 and my team has focuses on mid node AoE fights. Actually, Hammer only really works most effectively if you go 10/0/30/30/0 because you need to have condition removal and sustain from tactics to make Hammer work.
My build in the video is just the standard 20/30/0/0/20. Axe + Mace is 30/10/0/0/30.

You’ll get used to it from Schwar. Napoleon complex to the extreme.
