Guild Wars 2

Just wanna get some opinions on this. I’m level 80 and have been a Berserker build since pretty much day 1 and I feel like changing it up. What do you guys recommend? Also, from your experience, what is the most effective for both PVE and PVP (besides Berserker of course, aheh).

I find it very hard to build for PvE and PvP. That being said, I like to play more of a DPS’y tanky build for my Warrior in PvE.

My build is all about getting the attention, while still being one of the top contenders with damage. With 70-90% of the mobs on me, my partners have free reign to do whatever they want (hopefully supporting me and/or killing the crap that’s hitting me). Axe provides great sustained DPS, while my shield enables me to survive.

I personally run 20/0/30/20/0. While some will argue healing shouts are great; I don’t think it’s completely beneficial, it feels like you’re pigeon-holed into always running shouts while I think the Wa excels in versality in PvE. With that said, I have every exotic weapon the Warrior can wield, and constantly switch up my 2ndary weapon (IE: Rifle in this case) to whatever calls for the situation
Example: If I need AoE, ill switch to Longbow… If i want more sustained DPS ill grab a mace offhand, or mace main-hand for defence.
This build (Like almost any other warrior build) Has 100% fury + Might up-time and for traveling ill switch the shout trait for the warhorn for 100% swiftness… Oh plus extra condition removers.

I run Knights on my Chest/Legs/Head (They provide the best bonuses) while the rest is Berserker with 3 Emerald Orbs and 3 Ruby Orbs. I also have Knight’s jewelry with ruby exquisite jewel.

Edit: My utilities always and constantly change when it comes to certain situations. Like for example i’ll easily change one of my Tactics traits to banners when it comes to us stacking on a boss, like Subject Alpha. Switching to Endure pain when there’s certain mobs who hit harder ETC ETC.
(Note this is what every class should be doing)
