Guild Wars 2

Hello. I would like you to give me some advice regarding my double sword/longbow build. This is meant for competitive tournaments, not for Hot Joins, so feel free to criticize it as much as you humanly can.

CLICK

Wait, what!?
Yes, you probably noticed FGJ. I like it since it boost both my power and my condition damage (3xMight which are up 100% of time) + it gives me 8 seconds of Fury which is something I really need in my build. As you probably noticed my main damage output comes from condition damage but raw power is also a very important part of the build. I have enough condition cleansers (Lyssa+Berserker Stance+Cleansing Ire) to stand against condi-spammers.
another peculliarity is “sigil of doom”, 5 sec of poison on swap. Probably you’re wondering why did I choose that. Well, it’s simple: I need to spam as many conditions as possible (that’s why I took vulnerability on crit) in order to prevent my real conditions to be cleansed too fast (burning, bleeding).

Well, time for you to insult my build Give me your thoughts!

Do this. Your build is way to squishy. And FGJ does nothing for you, you have signet for fury. Vuln on crit is also useless. Its very hard to do hybrid builds in spvp due to reduced stats and you can’t mix very well at all. Burst mastery also doesn’t do much at all because your burst skills are condi based. You don’t really need lyssa with cleansing ire and zerker stance, i find most condi classes are dead by the time zerker stance wears off anyway. Doom sigils are good, my personal preference is just earth to get 25 bleed stacks whenever you use flurry. Doing that immediately after leap will finish off anyone.

Thanks for your advice! I’d like to keep it as much hybrid as possible, though, but I will consider your suggestions. I’ll try a 0 30 20 0 20 build today, slightly different from yours, though. I have still few questions: why warrior’s sprint? I already have swiftness for 30 seconds out of 48, more if I used Balanced Stance. And since you use 4 signet, why not to go for Deep Strikes?

When you test it use a rabid amulet just to see how much better it is not being hybrid. You need power, precision, crit dmg, condi dmg, condi duration, toughness, and vitality. You simply cannot get a good mix of those stats in spvp. Id try celestial amulet if youre set on hybrid tho. When you tweak it dont get rid of furious, as thats the core of the build. You can use your f1 skills of CD with it. And deep strikes is a bad trait since i actually use my signets. Facing a hammer warr or fear necro? Pop dolyak signet and kick their kitten . Getting loaded up on condis by an engi or necro? Pop signet of stamina and zerker stance. All the utilities have a purpose, just use them at the right time. And warriors sprint is just personal preference, im there for fast hands. ( which technically means you could take 5 out of there into defense for extra power with your hybrid.)
