So I’ve been playing a lot of WvW and I really like using the axe and shield. Are there any good builds centered around these two?

Soon 6/0/6/0/6

For now go GS+Axe/shield for WvW
GS for its mobility

traits: 4/0/6/0/4 (more dmg to GS) or 2/0/6/0/6 (more dmg to Axe)
You can go 4/0/4/0/6 also but it doesnt really chance much..

Anyway soon its all 6/0/6/0/6 no question needed anymore…

Biggest downside of GS+A/Sh being condi cleansing. Trying to use Eviscerate to cleanse your condis is kind of stupid against anything that has even a single blind.

Sadly, going with LB+A/Sh means you have very little mobility: Once you get into a fight, you either kill your opponent, die trying or watch them run away.

But yes, with the trait revamp coming soon, I think it’d be best to use a setup that is as close to 6/0/6/0/6 as possible.
