Weakness. It’s probably one of the most overlooked conditions in the game. In a meta that has such high damage, having the ability to keep those guys from critting can be potentially very strong.

This build turns the weakness game up to the max

Feel free to offer up improvements.

The thing is…
When You have knocked down, dazes, pushed back, launched and what not.
The target are not attacking you, thus those 3 seconds of weakness is kind a pointless.

So all in all…not so great ( from my point of view)
and whats up with rune of vampirism????….did you buy a 1000 of those and now trting to sell them or what?..there are better runes than that

Weakness on disable is a terrible design, because a lot of that Weakness duration is lost when it comes to damage mitigation. Furthermore, the way Warrior applies disables is back to back, in combos, so all when the enemy recovers all it takes is one condi removal to get rid of Weakness. Plus apex classes spam condi removal anyway.

Also Vamp Runes with Defy Pain? What?

No offense but those kind of builds were already tried out by serveral players and aren’t new at all
Hambow with those traits, mace/sword interrupt build with these traits… it’s fun to play but neither you can compete with eles on nodes, nor you can fit the role as a dps roamer.
hambow is just a shadow itself and there is not a single reason to bring a hambow imo.

Good Build. LB is hybrid so get benefit from amulet. The prob is prec but hammer is like one skill does only one shot each which means it’s ok with intel sigil. Overally good zerker confusion build. Only thing not sure is that did you try rampager amulet? cuz it has no prec and no intel sigil when you turns into rampage mode.

You aren’t going to use Hammer normally on this build. If anyone played Hammer in GW2 they might have know about quarter knocking. You had to time your follow up CC so that they had just enough time to start using a skill but you end up interrupting it, which is more bleeding, weakness, and confusion.

There’s also the fact that most players have at least 1 stun breaker and they typically try to retaliate right after, this makes any burst after that hit like a wet noodle.

The duration is long enough that the stacked up weakness will last longer than the CC by a big margin. After you land the combo, swap back to bow which applies more bleed/poison.

I’m not so sure about Rampager’s, but Cele does help make up for the Crit issue.
