Ok so I’m just wondering if there are any competitive warrior builds out there besides the sometimes OP, sometimes useless, and always boring 100B frenzy warrior build?

I had started as the 100B spec when the game first came out like almost everyone else, but its SO BORING! you either run in, kill your opponent in .5 seconds, or they actually know what theyre doing and you have to rely on eviscerates to win (or just bank on frenzy coming off CD in time to faceroll them with your axe #1 hits).

i then went to bleed/shout warrior, and that was GREAT, but at some point sword was nerfed and it hits like a wet noodle, so you basically do ALL your damage in bleeds, so if the people youre facing are any good theyll have plenty of ways to remove conditions.

then finally i went to zerker hammer warrior. that was fun for a while, especially in general spvp, jump into the always present zerg with ES and smash everyone to bits or just knock them all away/down repeatedly. sadly once i brought it to tourneys i found out any decent player just uses blind or something when i use ES, and ALL the burst damage comes from the massive crits against your stunned targets after an ES, effectively making me useless.

so here i am again, looking for a good warrior tourney build that ISNT a 100Bfrenzy build. im looking for a build that does at least decent damage, i dont need the super glass canon specs that deal insane burst, but i also dont want to be the wielder of the wet noodle either ofc. and my biggest issue is i need a spec with decent tougness. idc if it lacks in vitality, as a warrior 900 vitality is still like 19k health, which is perfectly fine to me, i just want toughness to avoid getting one shot by thieves and burst warriors.

any suggestions? im willing to test just about anything out besides 100B and rifle specs (i hate the rifle as a main weapon, just a preference thing, i know it can do a lot of damage i just dont care lol).

thnx in advance for any constructive responses

That’s the build I’ve been running lately with success. It has great mobility, excellent burst, and above average survival ability. It’s built glass cannon but with your utilities, good condition removal, and a little bit of whit, you can achieve a lot with this build.

No, there is none.

Yeah, sorry about it, that’s my main gripe with the Warrior, but non-100b build is not just worse, it’s borderline useless. Unless it’s an Axe build, which is basically a weaker version of GS.

I’m running a new tourny build that doesn’t use the GS.

Mainly due to most teams having so much AOE now a days being a glass GS has a lot of downsides.

I don’t know where I’m going with this, but you sound desperate and I like throwing together random unlikely stuff to see what happens.

There are less efficient builds that try to do the same exact thing. These are also pushed out by Thieves in that team burst slot. So, no. There are other builds that are effective in PvP, but not in tPvP due to how the meta works, which is the result of concentrating so heavily on the Conquest game type.

Bleed + confusion (Sword + Sword/Mace + Shield). Its kind of a counter-pick type of build but its workable.

Since people are negative about nerfs, how about we buff to balance then?

This is my favorite CC / Burst build.

Haha, awesome, I’m not the only one. I just started using it as an anti-bunker build (warrior is an alt for me). It seems to be painfully bad at everything EXCEPT dueling bunkers 1v1…for that it was awesome.

What utilities would you recommend for this build? Also, rune for double bleed duration or more condition damage? I’d like to play in this spec more.

im a little confused, how can you really apply confusion with a sword+sword/axe+shield build besides shields #4 and bullscharge? that doesnt seem like it would do all that much confusion wise :/

and i want to thank everyone else out for their input as well. it would seem if youre not gonna go GS/frenzy or rifling glass canon you basically have to go CC. ive recently started trying mace+mace simply for the control aspect of it with some healing shouts. im still working on it but so far it aint bad, the ranged knockdown makes closing in quite easy so far lol

I don’t play sPvP, but you could try Axe/Shield or Axe/Mace. Still does heavy damage but you get a bit of utility if you like. Works out great for me in WvW, but again, I have no experience in sPvP.

Sword + Sword and Mace + Shield, not Axe + Shield. I don’t like Axe. The build is pretty much a counter-pick to classes that don’t really have much options vs. conditions.

He said mace + shield, so you have 3 interrupts in that weapon set (adren dump, mace 3, shield 4) Sounds interesting tbh. I’ve been trying out a sword/sword + sword/shield full on condition build today. Its really gimmicky though, and extremely hit or miss (either they have enough condition removal to completely negate almost all my damage, or they die a slow death).

Honestly, warrior needs 3 weapon swaps for sPvP since shield is ALWAYS required.

Call me when this game gets fixed…. if it ever does….

Sword/Sword and Sword + Shield is a waste. That’s like going Scepter + Focus and Scepter + Dagger on a Necro which is really dumb.

If you want to stack condition damage as a Warrior you have to have Burn and Bleed OR Confusion and Bleed. Also, GEOMANCY SIGILS. VERY IMPORTANT.
