Guild Wars 2

So first things first, this is far from an original concept as evidence by the title. That being said I decided that I have enough changes in my version that I might as well post it here for those interested. Here is the original thread:

The build:

This is essentially a tougher version of the Anas Tarcis Build that is more focused on staying in the fight. It only really lacks in the crit chance department but if you pull off a perfect Hammer combo the difference in damage is actually not that great from Berserker. The obvious weakness is that you can’t just jump out of a fight if things get hairy like you can with a sword but you can pull of some crazy combos with bow. You can switch up utilities as you like, you can use Balanced Stance or go with Sig of Stamina instead of Bulls Charge.

To get the most out of the Hoelbrak runes I use a sigil of Battle. With Combustive Shot and skills like Arching Arrow and Earthshaker you’ll be able to keep up a respectable amount of might that will stick around, just watch out for boon stealing Thieves. It preforms well in teamfights due to the AoE combo field and stun and it can best most of the current meta in 1v1. Shatter mesmers with constant stun breaks/teleports can pretty easily beat you but you don’t see them much because they tend to only be good 1v1. This build feels as strong as it does because like the Skullcracker it counters the condi/heavy meta that tend to not have stun breaks or Stability. Hammer is probably the hardest weapon in the game to master but once you do it can be a force of nature.

I use Soldier amulet sometimes depends on what enemies I faced. More dpsers I use soldier, more condi spamers I use zerker. Sometimes I feel Solider is a lot better but it really depends on luck. Nice build btw! keep going!. Also Battle Sigil migh work but I still like Energy better because I don’t really want to been focusing on might stacking.

Yah I like energy a lot as well, I just wanted to maximize the Runes of Hoelbrak. I actually prefer to use Sig of Stamina so I not only have a cleanse but faster Endurance Regen as well. It’s especially useful is you don’t kill a Spirit Ranger before Zerker Stance runs out and they get a wave of Condis out on you.

I fear Thieves that can just appear and steal all my might though but if I react fast chances are they die in one Hammer combo.

If you enjoy the might stacks, you might try a banner build. I don’t even bother with might duration runes, just sigils of battle and blast combos. Maintain 10-20 stacks in most fights with little effort.

I’ve made a decent Banner Regen build but at most you’ll only want 1 banner and picking it up and using 5 in the combo field takes too long. It’s good for dueling but I can’t say I’d take it into a SoloQ or TPvP match.
