Guild Wars 2

I made a viper/sinister set up for my rev but condi rev just isnt worth it… was thinking of throwing this on my warrior to possibly take him out of retirement

In PVE Condition Warrior isn’t bad, specially as a Berserker, DPS is quite up there.

Sad to say though there are a lot of narrow minded and stupid people out there.. so be prepared to get flamed at or kicked from parties when not running a PS build in Berserker armor. =p

Especially with revenant pumping out all the boons your party could ever need, I see condi war could be quite good in PvE. You can stack like 25 burn by yourself? Just make sure to use Balthazar and top off the burn duration at 100%.

Been playing viper condi. warrior for the past couple of days, and dps is definitely up there. Staking up 7 to 12k burning/bleeding a second + physical damage.

But as said previously, a lot of people don’t see further then meta builds, so be prepared to play only with friends / guild..

Also this build is pretty much only useful on single non moving targets to be able to stack up properly, which limits you to fractals in my opinion.

I was disappointed in the number of kicks from groups and versatility of the condi. warrior, and threw the build on my guard.

although id never kick a warrior for running another dps build, i can understand wanting a PS warr, the whole perma 25 group might thing is pretty great

meh herald stacks might better anyway tbh.

I have an ascended viper set thats literally doing nothing on my rev, because I tried making a condi rev and it sucks. might put it on my war

Can Herald really stack might better than warr?

yea. with strength runes (a lot of people use scholar for dem deeps!) you can passively stack 14-15 stacks even before the fight. press 3, and you hit 25 stacks, press F2 for increased boon duration and press F2 again to spread it around. in a total of about 4 seconds (could be faster actually) 25 stacks of might with fury

Using sinister and balthazar runes. My best burning is on 17K per sec + 2K bleeding + direct dmg on 3x fotm Bloomhunger. The 570+7% addition condit dmg is so unbelievable good.

I had full ascended Sinister gear ready for my Revenant at launch, but I’ve given up on using it, since the power DPS is so superior. I’ve just about given up on the Warrior condi build too, even with yesterday’s changes. I’m considering changing the stats to Berserker’s in the Mystic Forge so my Warrior and Revenant don’t have to share armors.

Using herald as your teams primary might stack instead of a warrior is insanely sketchy. So you’re going to kitten your revenant’s dps in order to get it to do a job that a warrior can do better and do without gimping it’s DPS? Seems bad.

Revenant CAN stack Might (at a great cost) but that doesn’t mean you SHOULD do it.

im going to go on a mighty thick limb and tell you that youre wrong on this one. While I usually agree with you, nah, not this time. Warrior CANT do it better, it just doesnt, and it wont. Herald does it better, easier, faster, with more consistency and can maintain solid dps. Warrior is stuck in GS with meh dps.

I’m not sure a rev can take the spot of might stacking in PVE from warrior if a warrior is available. However I have yet to see any herald supoort spec vids showing their DPS rotations. Only seen scrubs talk like its better. But for all I know they don’t play warriors so don’t know what they are talking about.

No, I’m very much right. A rev wearing strength runes who camps Herald is less dps than a strength, tactics, Berserker warrior in strength runes. Also if you’re suggesting not bringing a warrior thats an auto fail because EA + Banners > than any other character’s buffs. If you’re suggesting bringing a pure DPS warrior and a might stacking Revenant, I would say you are pretty confused about what’s good. If you’re saying don’t bring a warrior at all in an organized group… well good luck.

Revenant fulfills the same role Ele fills in parties. Trying to have it fill the warrior’s role is a colossal waste of resources.

I gotta side with Nike. While a rev can stack 25 might they have a hard time maintaining it plus it’s a large personal dps loss. Warrior on the other hand has little problem maintaining 25 stacks (with right stuff) while have a much less dramatic drop in personal dps. The main thing u have to remember about warrior might stacking is that with Phalanx Strength the warrior doesn’t have to do a bunch of fancy things ro team stack might. Just attacks on most mobs/bosses while using heal skill ( restorative strength ) and signet of rage as needed. Even in fights where u need to range they still have resorative and signet of rage plus fire field and 4 blast finishers (lb 3, 2 banners and banner 5) add in a sigil of strength on the LB (with a double chance to proc on auto attack) and u can still maintain a healthy amount of might
