Guild Wars 2

Let’s make it clear, the question is regarding WvW.

So, recently I have started playing warrior again after a while. I am using a full zerker gear with strength runes and I find it quite satisfying. I fare good against many opponents, but I have seen many known warriors on Youtube and Twitch use a marauder + durability runes set (trinkets remain zerker). I am considering to start collecting money to get this set too (I do not want to change my zerker armrour, since I will need it for small group fights and PVE content). Anyway, do you guys believe that the marauder+durability is superior to zerker+ strength? I feel the boon duration is kind of irrelevant since the only reliable boon for warrior is might and strength gives more. Also, with all these defensive skills etc I feel we dont need that defense.

The build I’ve seen being quite popular is:

Mine is similar, although i got the armor and rune I said above.

It might be a little better, mostly because you don’t have the might generation potential of a build that uses Forceful Greatsword. If you do plan to start using FG (e.g. going back to core), I’d stick with what you’ve got (and maybe have a Hoelbrak set for when condis make you sad).

That said, PoF could turn the boon game on its head. I personally wouldn’t put a big investment into boon gear until I saw how that played out.

You are right! I start collecting gold for the time being and will see how spellbreak works. Atm, I ll stick to core warrior and my gear for max dmg Thanks a lot mate!

I run Core with Marauder/Dura. I run this as sort of a “I’m outnumbered and maybe one of these people isn’t completely hopeless” or " 25 bloodlust thief wants to +1 netflix and chill without the netflix."

It takes a nice bit out of cheesy stealth bursts when your trying to stomp 2 other people, has some team synergy, and works with might.

That being said I like going full yolo too. It can work very well, but it starts to get very dicey in outnumbered fights.

Yeah, I know what you mean. WvW is more zerg now than ever with many WvWnoobs trying to farm tickets. Anyway, I ll wait and see what happens. Thanks for your reply
