Guild Wars 2

I was told 30/0/0/10/30 is the way to go in PVE, but was wondering if I’m still able to use the GS as my primary weapon or will it have to be axe/mace?
and how would i play with this set up?
Would i open with axe/mace or GS in every encounter or does it not matter as long as i swap weapons frequantly?

I would also love a good PVP/WVW build if anyone can post me a link to a couple!

I’m a newly dinged 80 warrior and would love to have some info on where would be the best place to start gearing up, as im really confused.
Any tips & info would be much appreciated

Thanks!

GS has pretty horrible auto attack damage. that’s why it’s only a secondary weapon. The 15-point minor is Discipline (Fast hands) reduces your weapon swap cooldown to 5s – approximately the time for a 100B & Whirling Attack.

With that trait, there is simply no reason not to use superior auto attack damage that an Axe/X brings as a swap rather than auto attacking with GS for the next 6 seconds.

The only real thing that should get changed is your offhand. Mace is almost objectively the most useful (Vuln & conal knockdown) but some fights (Bloomhunger, for example) a Warhorn should be used, or an Offhand Sword for Lupi.
