Guild Wars 2

Hello guys, im returning to the game after 1 year away, i main warrior and thief, but im excited to play my warrior. I play mainly PvP/WvW, are dual axe/gs warriors a thing yet?

I like “fun” builds that would work for duels, thinking about this one

what you guys think?

Sure can. I ran something similar to it for duels (even roamed with it for a couple of months).

It’s got some pretty obvious counters, but the damage pressure is high, especially if your duels are restricted to a smaller area.

Nice Choppy, care to share your build? :P

Sure. I play vanilla, and below is the link to the roaming build I was running for a while, which is also what I used to duel people there.

When jumping into pvp arenas to duel friends, the build stayed more or less the same, except the runes switched to scholar and the sigils changed, of course.

The playstyle is pretty straightforward… you play aggressively because you don’t have much active defense to rely on besides dodges, which is great, because you can also use those aggressively when you run the strength line.

I’ve dropped it for roaming in favour of the sword for mobility and the shield for defense (which has been my go-to for a couple of years now), mostly because I hassle larger groups a lot and the above build isn’t great for that. It’s still fun for duels, imo.

i see, i got pretty bored with the vanila build since i used to play too, but with GS/Bow.

Trying with the zerker skills now, but it lacks a lot of defense.

So you haven’t played much with berserker? Well, a couple things to note are that Adrenal Health got a big boost, so you gain a lot of sustain just by turtling up with a shield, stance, and, if you aren’t opposed to condi, Berserker opened up a bunch of options there.

m+t/s+sh hybrid (or condi) is comparatively unique and strong, for example.
