Build
http://tinyurl.com/Valkserker2

So got a chance to have a good play and new build is in. With the shifting meta and the removal of the bunker, I forsee a lack of need for a heavy bunker busting setup. There’for the balance in the build has shifted slightly from a heavier focus on signits to a rounded sig/stance setup. With all the cries about the coming condi meta (thief blinds, necro shenanigans) I couldnt pass up the chance to run the new zerker stance in place of sig of might. For that reason I swapped to traited Last Stand and Defy Pain. I still retained sig mastery as the unblockables still help, and the reduction on signit cd’s just makes for good synergy.

Other than that the build is mostly the same, buffs aside. I put sigil of speed on rifle to draw on that swiftness. Been running around with 1:20 worth for the trouble XD

Will just add, while subtle I can really feel the difference in sustain between the stances and the additional healing. There’s been plenty of thieves out there trying to crawl all over my kitten , as well as a score of Rifle wielding +1 zerkerberkers. The safety of the bunker meta has subsided, so you have to account for the additional damage that’s rolling around out there right now. That big HP pool is still doing its job.

the vid has been deleted, anyway i try it it’s almost the same build of your’s i still prefer 3 on defence mastertraits, ye blind will be a pain, BS should help but what i don’t like it it’s the amount of boon rips that necros will run,so i prefer a hard condi cleanse running sigil of stamina,then outrage and defy pain to keep breakstun up. and since thief will be unblockable more chances to dodge burst damage seems works fine.
btw i like your build,i’ll make some try

Victory at any cost

You’re confusing the word “better” with “does more DPS/Burst”.

I’ve been right through zerkerberker, and rode Berserker up the S1 devisions into diamond. I run zerkerberker in Stronghold, but for conquest, especially in ranked and vs good opponents running legit builds, yours will come away lacking. Or to put it another way “not better”. You’re also limited in what you can do with your build. You’re at your best at range, and catching people out who step outside of the pressure of a team fight. Fighting on point can go very badly for you very quickly, even in a 1v1. The biggest flaw in your setup, and the #1 thing you could do to improve it while maintaining the theme, is to dump that maurauders ammy and take berserkers. You’re giving up a ton of damage for, what essentially turns out to be an extra leaf of paper in a book that’s ready to catch on fire. The one thing you have going for you is eliminating your opponent instantly before they can stun lock you, or condi bomb you, and watch you die.

I have no doubt it’s going great in unranked right now. You’ve got 100% newbs and pve guilds running around, and 100% pro ranked pvp’rs testing out new builds with no bunker ammys in sight. Enjoy the off season while it lasts :D

Oh and 8k-16k gunflames? Pshhh

Try 7k (non crit gunflames) – 20k gunflames

You missed the deeper slight, which was that the build used to create that 20k gunflame on the light golemn was an all in, 1 trick pony :p

Admittedly the opponents you were facing in your vid were a step up from a light golemn. Somewhere in the vicinity of the mists class NPC’s. ;D

As for the rest of what you’re saying, the english is to broken, I’m not sure I follow. You might be saying- The legit players, or those in ranked are abusing bugs, or running the “op” stuff? Sounds like scrub talk to me.

inb4 pistols at dawn…..

Looks like a pretty straightforward situation though….

Ross’ build is going for more sustain to outlast all the expected condis while still being able to down most people who’ll no longer be bunkered up. It looks to be striving for just enough killing power to get the job done while having enough stick-around power to dish out pain for as long as possible.

Meanwhile, PassionWiskey’s build’s going for the “I blow your face off before you even see me, fool!” approach. Lacks the sustain, but will be sure to put down even the tankiest opponents holding a point.

As for what’s better… it doesn’t much matter. Go with what works wherever you’re playing (at whatever level), and switch up when it doesn’t.

Exactly. Which is why I run zerker ammy berserker in stronghold. Charge around, destroy the NPC’s, pick off the enemy players, no need to worry about sustaining in fights over capture points.
