Guild Wars 2

Hello, my gf and I pug fractals all the time(we do lev49s and did 48s forever in old system, have experience), she has been thinking of playing her Warrior and just got a precision/conditon/power ascended weapon and likes to play ranged.

Was wondering if it’s worth going with a condition build(ptc?) and making the ascended weapon a longbow and using that for range primarily(I play guardian and can put down fire fields to help proc burning ) and switch to rifle and also use sword/sword when meleeing.

Here’s a build I dreamt up in editor:

Any opinions about the build and style would be appreciated.. is this completely terrible damage compared to a zerker war? In pug type situations I should emphasize.

I’d recommend against taking any type of condition builds into fractals.

id recommand trying a cond build if you feel uneasy with critical damage. Cond is somewhat way more durable and it aint like if mob could cond cleanse you either.

What mathers is that you play what you want and feel confortable to. Just because some meta says you to play something doesnt mean you have to. As long as your doing very good

Utility and dps are king in fractals, even more so higher levels. Condition builds are doable but not recommended. It will not make life easier.

Crippling yourself because its more fun is at the cost of 4 other players in the group. This is known as being selfish.

Technically speaking that would be the detriment of 3 other players. OP said he runs with his girlfriend who apparently doesn’t mind the extra long runs either.

Speaking of the OP I don’t think you read my post or you’d realize we’re wondering IF the build would end up being really bad damage comparatively, thanks for the advice people.

Then it’s still selfish.

Yes, yes it would. You’ll be PUGging, there are always PUGs hogging the condition caps anyway, and unless you’re in full Zerker, you have no right to complain about people playing sub-optimally.

Conditions being bad aside, it could just be left as Warrior has awful condition options in comparison to others.
