Traits:
http://dulfy.net/2015/05/02/gw2-specialization-calculator-that_shaman/#profession=warrior&traits=“Arms”,2,6,9-“Defense”,1,6,8-“Discipline”,2,6,8

@edit
link broken, so listing:
Arms: Signet Mastery, Blademaster, Dual Wielding
Defense: Shield Master, Cleansing Ire, Defy Pain
Discipline: Warrior’s Sprint, Brawler’s Recovery, Burst Mastery

Weapons and utilties:
http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fJAQRAnc8OjMdWGihHciAA

In short: it’s axe+sword/sword+shield. Planned use: roaming.

Why? Because new dual wielding trait should make axe autoattack feel like meatgrinder! Add to that +10% dmg to bleeding enemies (so always), +50% crit chance against stunned (for Final Thrust or Evi), blocks on both weapon sets with reflects and other cool stuff.

Damage: good pressure with axe 1. and good burst with axe F1 and sword 3.
Mobility: simply awesome with sword with reduced CD
Self heal: average. Signet + Adrenal Health
Condi removal: very good. On weapon swap, Cleansing Ire (not reliable) and signet for condi bombs.
Mitigation: solid. 2 blocks, both with reduced cooldowns and reflects. +50% endurance regen from signet. Defy Pain.

Sigils, runes and stats distribution is to be decided. It’s supposed to be power build, but maybe it’d work with celestial too.

Balanced Stance could be replaced with dolly signet (only 8 sec longer CD and offers passive + more stability stacks). Opinions?

Last utility is free. I guess Endure Pain is always safe bet. Bola could work too to land more Evis. Opinions?

I have to say it looks very good on paper. Too good. That’s why I’m posting here – maybe I’m just forgetting something?

Hmmmm…

I don’t like the weapon swap, seems like you will only be able to apply pressure and dmg if your foe stands still and lets you.

I like it a lot. An alternative to GS +Axe/Shield.

dual wielding isnt important in PVP your goal is to unload eviscerate and dual wielding does nothing for it. You’re better off with 6/0/6/0/6
