Guild Wars 2

I have several questions I hope some of you can answer and here they are:

Q. Are Warriors any good in WvW? (Over Thief?)

Q. For WvW should I use Power/Vitality/Toughness? or is it okay to use Glass Cannon crit build?

Q. For PvE is it better to use Glass Cannon Crits or Power/Tough/Vit?

No

Yes, No

It is your decision both are viable.

1# warriors are beasts in WvW, not for roaming thou, but for group fights
2# yes and no
3# for PvE you can best go something in the middle, get some thoughness to survive and some damage to kill the mobs fast.

Warriors are not beasts in teamfights. We’re next to useless in WvW. There is no justification taking a Warrior over a Thief. Or Mesmer. Or Elementalist. That unholy trinity rules WvW.

As long as everyone keeps believing that, we’ll continue to roll faces in WvW ^^. I don’t mind. You can’t see potential if you aren’t willing too.

If you want to use one armor set for wvw and pve follow these steps:

1. get knights armor
2. accquire soldier and zerker trinkets and weapons
3. swap out weapons and trinkets according to the situations needs
4. ???
5. profit!

You clearly do not understand the power of a hammer warrior, or man a lot of siege.

Fixed.

Came here to say exactly this. Hammer warrior are beasts.

Warriors excel in WvW, most of the more severe issues the class has in tPvP just don’t matter there. The ability to deliver substantial burst damage even in non glass cannon builds, thereby surviving the initial brunt of the enemy’s attack, is invaluable.

Unlike Mesmers ( portal ) and Elementalists ( protect siege/walls) Warriors do not have a signature ability that only they bring to the table though, so if you have a primadonna mentality you should probably pick one of these two classes.

Your skill might overcome the class restrictions, as mine does.

However, our utility is lacking. There are way better choices.

HB is useless (in pvp) 99% of the time in comparison to some other things in the game regardless of how much damage it theoretically can cause. It needs no nerf, and other classes use it to justify the status quo.

If they nerfed HB and buffed our other stuff to be on par with the other classes, those thieves/eles/guards would cower in a corner, hoping we won’t notice them. ^^ So feel free to take away HB and buff my hammer. No status quo any longer.
