Guild Wars 2

Hello pro warriors!
I wanna try out warrior because it’s one of the few classes I haven’t played too much yet, so I made this build for WvW (where I want to play warrior). It’s a mobile tanky warrior focusing on NOT using burst skills.
This is because having stage 3 adren will give 15% damage and ~400 + ~350 (signet) HP a second due to traits.

I don’t know if this is ‘viable’ or anything, but let me know

BUILD: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fJAQNBMhFakpjqQbDxMEORD0DUI39YwcAcARgy7IOA-TVCFwAMOEApUtAwTA4qSQkK/EcCAQpmSt9HyoPIAACA38mD9mD9mlBYZBA-w

Main combo = Wh 4 > GS 4 > GS 5 > GS 3 > Sword 2 > Wh 5 > Sword burst skill > Immidiately switch to GS while activating frenzy stance > GS 2

Thanks for any replies!

I’m also new to warrior class(just got 80), but I think you got to many adrenaline generation for not using it. Signet, skill, trait.. Too many. You must remove berserker stance and get endure pain(because you love stances). Trait cleansing ire also makes no sense, because main profit of this trait is removing conditions, so you lose it by not using burst skill…. Another problem is using dogged march trait and warhorn in one build. May be there is more to say, but I think it’s clear, that you must change smth

Don’t plan on chaining too many skills together as you’ve laid out. You’re going to want to be constantly reassessing your situation so you can react accordingly. And take a look at this for some ideas on GS/S+X. http://metabattle.com/wiki/Build:Warrior_-_GS_S/x_Roamer

You only have 2591 armor. I wouldn’t call that tanky. Anything over 3000 armor is tanky. That build is good for scouting and picking off fleeing enemies. But it’s not effective in zerg fights nor roaming 1v1 fights against good players. The upside is you can always get away if you find yourself in a bad situation. It really depends on what you want to accomplish in wvw to determine what builds works best. By the way I would remove frenzy and take bull charge to ensure that no one can outrun you.

Adrenal health only heals every 3 seconds, unlike the signet’s every second.

actually Sword burst is pretty good you should use it and since you use GS, you must learn the (Flurry > sheath > Swap> 100b) combo, its really the bread and butter of GS/Sw builds.

also Arcing Slice is not bad at all, more reliable to hit than flurry for condi clears plus maintaining perma Fury.

also Dogged March + food + Mobile Strikes + warhorn = is an overkill.

get rid of Mobile Strikes, (Dogged March + food) should be enough and take Armored Attack instead, it will give you about 200 more power.

i would suggest also switching War Horn to Shield, shield bash is great to setup Flurry or Final Thrust.

i would also recommend going 6 in armor and taking Missile Deflection, its a necessity i think with the Rangers outbreak going on.

Slashing Power + Rune of the pack is a good combo and since the might nerf it got better.

but still you should also consider Hoelbrak + Forceful Greatsword combo, Hoelbrak got also -20% condi duration will be great with Dogged March + food (-93% movement condi duration).

you could also put 5 in arms to take Attack of opportunity +10% damage to bleeding foes, will compensate for losing Slashing Power since you could have perma bleed on your enemy thanks to Sword attacks and Precise Strike trait.

also check my video its old but will give you an idea on how GS/Sw-Sh works Omnislash

Thanks everyone, helped me quite a bit
Got me build, gonna go into WvW now ^^
