Build 1: 20/30/0/0/20
VS.
Build 2: 20/25/0/10/15

What do you run for:
A) Dungeons
B) Farm (CoF p1 mainly lol)

Just wanted to go over some quick things with each side.

Strength
Both utilize it the same way

Arms
Build one can utilize Deep Wounds, Rending Strikes, and Forceful Greatsword.
On the other hand, build two must take out either deep wounds or rending strikes.

Defense
None.

Tactics
Build one does not utilize tactics.
Build two invests ten points in order to receive empowered (2.5%damage per boon)

Discipline
Both builds utilize Heightened Focus; however, build one also utilizes Signet Mastery for easier access to Fury (SoR).

Overall
Build 1:
-50 more precision and condition damage
-BOTH rending and deep
-Quicker Signet recharge
-5% critical damage .5% burst damage
(30s fury + 8s fury + 4~16s fury) = 42~54s of fury = perma fury (Need 42)

Build 2:
-100 more vitality
-10% more boon duration
-2.5% damage per boon (Might Perma, Fury High, Swiftness 1/2 up-time -self boon-)
(33s fury + 9s fury + 4~17s fury) = 46~59s of fury = high fury (Need 60)

This is assuming that GS/Axe-axe is being utilized.
I realize that most people prefer GS/Axe-mace. Is the extra stacks of vulnerability and #5 worth it overall? For dungeons? For Farm?

What is, in your opinion, the best overall Zerker build?

Just out of curiosity guys
Some guys were discussing this in map chat today in WvWvW lol.. of all places..

I’m using 25/20/0/0/25. To me its the best. I think each ‘zerker’ build is unique because your trying to optimize damage output while maintaining a balance with your gear. I always try to maintain 50%+ crit chance with 85%+ crit damage.

I’ve been running 20/25/0/10/15 for dungeons/CoF1 for a while now. Switch to 20/20/0/10/20 for WvW.

Here are build and stats:
http://gw2buildcraft.com/calculator/warrior/?8|1.1n.h17|7.1g.h4.7.1g.h4|1n.7i.1g.7i.1n.7i.1g.7i.1n.7i.1g.7i|1g.67.1n.67.1n.67.1g.67.1g.67.8c.67|k59.k5a.0.a6.k6a|54.7|e
Swap in Zerk items for Knight’s items if the Dungeon group is good and obv. full zerk for CoF1.

i love 30/10/0/0/30 using deepstrike as a signet warriors! =3

Signet build is for leveling purposes only. Anything else is laughable.

@OP: what are you going for? Max DPS or just overall best build? Bit confused…

Max DPS. Just for the sake of knowing lol
I think best build is harder since it’s so easy to argue about min/max… but even with min/max, it’s sometimes better to get pure certain stat even if it is inefficient.

If someone could give an example of a best build though, I Would be open to looking at it! Thanks!
