Greetings Warriors!

Just recently got into playing a warrior and enjoying it thus far. Would like to ask if theres a build suggestion I could aim towards for the Sword/Axe + Rifle Combo?
I’ve tried all the other weapons and I really enjoy this playstyle the most. I understand that its really not the most optimal but I could use some advice. Currently I’m 63 so I still have a long way to go. I find Leg Speciallist & Opportunist works well with this setup. I can maintain fury for quite a while Thank You for your time!

That’s pretty much the same as my setup so you may find this useful, if only to point and laugh at it: http://youtu.be/vOG8yvFFqR4

I like it cause your able to just blast out some nice damage and crit-damage, very good when you focus in on an opponent. I would recommend that if you intend on using this build for WvW, in which I do, that you have a buddy fighting with you cause there is very little in the way of defense. You are quite squishy. You can try changing “For Great Justice” with “Shake it off!” to help with getting away from dire situations. You will be relying on your armor mostly for the defense it provides if your looking for survivability as most of it should give you boosts to your condition damage and power.

Basically, this build is for getting in, helping your mates dish out some serious damage and then getting out as quick as possible to get ready for another run in which your rifle then comes in handy.

I did recently change my traits to 30\25\5\0\10 to see how much longer I lasted in larger fights, it helped but only just.

Anyway I hope this helped. Peace!
