Guild Wars 2

Hi, I’m very new to sPvP and have been mostly playing sword/shield warrior with longbow. I know Hambow is the OP right now, but I enjoy the sword and shield build more. I like it for it’s finesse, even though I’m as clunky as a dolyak at the moment.

Anyways, I know most cond. warrior builds use sword/sword, but I really enjoy the shield play. Is the sword/sword so good that using shield is useless?

Here’s my build: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vIAQNAseTjMdU5ZVIGewJaABz4KqizjkYKAQ9h5A-TsAAzCmIKSVkrITRyisFNsYZxEBA

I’d really appreciate any tips on what to change (traits, runes, utility) and what playstyle I have to adopt to get the most out of this build and other general comments. My idea behind the build is to have good condition damage while being able be beefy and mobile. I’ve had most success in 1vs1 situations but have done well in holding points, however I know there’s no point in focusing on that when there exists bunker guardians/engineers.

I have been thinking of going 10 in discipline and 20 in defense to get Leg Specialist from tactics, but not sure yet if it’s worth it.
