Guild Wars 2

I would really like some input on this build and how you think I should play it:

I am also looking for some good builds, so if anyone can recommened one to me, I would appreciate it.

Opportunist w/o Leg Specialist – You only have one immobilize.
Lyssa goes well with Empowered trait.
If this is for any PvP/WvW situation, you want Stronger Bowstrings.
Axe Mastery or Dual Wielding from Strength line is recommended for ann Axe build.

Usually you work out what you want to do before creating the build, not making a build and trying to figure out what it does xD

I posted this thread because I have not found many dual axe WvW builds. I would like some more input.
Thanks

I’m not seeing a single reason to go offhand axe in any setting.
WA might be half-acceptable on a zerg but it’s not like it achieves anything; I’d rather 100B into a zerg or even Axe auto.
Tremors and Shield Block are also much overall better skills than Axe’s.

Sure one might go for “kitten double axe looks” but from a gameplay perspective it isn’t a good setup imo.

Off-hand Axe + High Crit Chance + Omnomberry Pie + Zerg = Healing Skill + Lots of Damage across the zerg.

I’ve seen Whirling Axe do ~13k healing to a warrior while putting out a cumulative damage across 5 enemies of 48k+. I’d call that more than half-acceptable myself. But, the point is completely valid that without the zerg (e.g., standing in front of a single boss), Whirling Axe is out DPS’ed by the auto-attack.

So is there any axe main hand build that would be a good WvW solo roamer? Or is axe not good for WvW in general?

Axe/Shield.

Still say Sword/Shield is far better for roaming purposes

Used Sword/shield all the time in GW1. Used it for a long kitten time in GW2. It gets kind of boring after a bit. Axe/Shield is a bit flashier & funner in WvW IMHO. specially if your alternate set has some CC.

I’ve found this build:

Does it still work? Lots of attack power, fair health, good crit and good crit dmg

Yes Axe is a very fun weapon.
