Guild Wars 2

I am really frustrated at the new patch because I was on a leveling path for the Sonic Boon Greatsword build, but that is out of the question because of the trait reassignments. So what would be a solid greatsword build? I don’t want to be a glass cannon. I want decent (I don’t need super good) damage, but good survivability. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Note: The website hasn’t been updated yet so the Traits are still pre-patch. Use the corresponding roman numeral trait post-patch instead of what’s written on this website!

I’m uploading a video at this very moment (21% atm) showing this build in action against a Warrior, an Elementalist, and another Warrior all in one go (without breaks in between fights).

I see a lot of people complaining about Warrior sustainability but with my build, and as you’ll see soon enough, sustainability was the least of my problem. I was healing near full health many times and conditions are basically non-existent with the new trait “Cleansing Ire”. You’ll notice that I don’t have any condition removal in my utility slots and that’s because I use food (-36% condition duration) and Eviscerate (gets rid of 3 conditions basically every 8 seconds) all the time.

“Stomp” is another utility that just recently found its way into my build, as well as the recently buffed move speed trait (25% move speed). It helps you disengage from fights very effectively.

Anyways, all this is useless without something to show it with so just stay tuned! I’ll be posting my post-patch WvW video very soon! (:

hey bro I appreciate that. Very cool of you to help ppl who arent as experienced in theroycrafting

I also appreciate you sharing your build, testing it out now.

Haha I wish I can show you guys the video already but I’m uploading the 1080p version and it’s taking awhile. It’s only at 55% atm. :T

I really like it so far, I feel very meaty while dishing some serious damage,

Here’s the video guys! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOgyt0UnHe8

This is a repost because he got trashed on in the other thread. This is not a sustainable build. If you were to fight anybody with condition damage you would melt, and those warriors are kittened for not dodging out of hundred blades.
