Guild Wars 2

anyone else feel like sharing their set up?

Just wondering what everyone’s current build/armor/sigils/ runes/jewells etc are for WVW?

I’m thinking about changing mine up…

This is my current build

http://intothemists.com/guides/307-daggerpistol_backstab_by_rand_x_al_thor

i do well with it tbh, but i think it’s a bit outdated, curious to see what everyone else is running.

i go for force/fire on dagger/pistol, then shortbow i go for bloodlust/energy

mmmm , seems like mostly fire/air or force/bloodlust combinations currently

currently using superior sigil of fire/ force on dagger/pistol
shortbow currently using bloodlust/fire although i’m thinking of switching to bloodlust/energy, as usually only use bow to escape fights and what not.

what do you guys use?

currently using fire on bow in 2nd slot best to switch to energy?

got a copy of the build you’re currently using, gears, runes, sigils, skills etc etc

Thanks for the reply, yeah I’m aware that doing 3 HS through blinding powder is no longer necessary best, to just use it once and go straight in for the BS, or like the suggestion you have mentioned.

I believe this build is the updated version, but yeah i may play around with it, in regards to the sigils, runes etc, what are your thoughts on them, the previous version was bloodlust + fire, on dagger/pistol, but this one now seems to be +5% dmg and fire. previous runes on armor were ruby orbs, but are now ogre, i suppose this is all because of the new changes with ferocity and what not, i stuck fire sigil on 2nd slot on bow, but may change it out for energy, as it does make sense, for escaping, giving you an extra dodge.

to be fair i was getting on really well with the shadow arts traits, but i might give acrobatics a play with as well, what would you suggest to use for major trait slots?

if you think it’s good/bad please explain why.

also what seems to be the main DPS builds at the moment for thief’s?

alright thanks a lot will change it up a kitteneers.

also what other sigil would be best to go for on warhammer?

Ryota.8539:

currently running this build http://intothemists.com/guides/991-wvw_shout_heal_frontliner

what sort of sigil would go best with that sort of build, and the current sigil on the hammer?

??

i’ve been using a condi build in spvp last day or 2, been on getting on really well this is the build i’m using atm http://en.gw2skills.net/editor/?fYAQRAqY6YlUmKNHaS3E95EB3Dni0n6p4rjVTBNtJA-TwAgyCuIiSFlLKTUyos+MEZJyOgZAA

currently running this build http://intothemists.com/guides/991-wvw_shout_heal_frontliner

what sort of sigil would go best with that sort of build, and the current sigil on the hammer?

http://intothemists.com/guides/991-wvw_shout_heal_frontliner

this is the one i use pretty much.

true it does burn initiative, but i still prefer it, easier to stealth as well, don’t need something to cnd off, can just use skill 5, and do 2-3 heart seekers, bang 3-5 seconds of stealth, can always use the initiative Regen signet, also works as another shadowstep, maybe give something like this a go http://intothemists.com/guides/307-daggerpistol_backstab_by_rand_x_al_thor it’s what i use pretty much for WvWvW. or for sPVP been using this, not sure if its any good post patch but still works well for me http://intothemists.com/guides/2389-2014_current_meta_thief_build

when you say “d/d is the best chase weaponset” do you mean it’s the best for chasing other players running away ? if so i disagree, i played DD since the game first came out, then about 6 months ago switched to D/P, imo this is far superior for chasing other players who are trying to leg it!

what about for shout heal warriors, currently go fire on hammer, dunno what else to go for

so would it be best to wait till the 15th before buying all the gear, and gearing up my warrior? or should buying the gear now be alright?

So i just fully geared my thief for WVW went for this build http://intothemists.com/guides/307-daggerpistol_backstab_by_rand_x_al_thor

Was this a mistake as the new changes in critical dmg are coming in to effect soon, or do you guys think that builds like these are still going to be effective and viable.

would i have been best to wait to see how the new changes effect game play before spending a bunch of gold, suppose it’s a bit late for that now.

Hey,

So i recently got my warrior up to 80 and decided to go for a hammer zerking build for WVW, as the new changes are coming out soon, is it best to hold out before spending too much gold, and buying loads of gear?

The 2 builds i’m trying to decide upon are http://intothemists.com/guides/991-wvw_shout_heal_frontliner or http://intothemists.com/calc/?build=-s;4NKkN0_4NLVQ0;9;6JJT;419-05-27An-k0U;1CqNYCqNYn-kc0-g290;1jVp0t1yY3_9a-30C-2i;9;9;9;9;9;9;14-6i.

haven’t spent too much gold so far just bought some jewelery, and have bought 3 ascalonian pieces of armor, but just wondering if it would be best to hold out for now before fully gearing or should the changes not really effect the 2 builds listed?

also out of the 2 builds listed which one seems to be better?

Many thanks.

Just wondering what everyone’s thoughts were in regards to the ferocity change?
do you think it is going to effect game play especially for high DPS classes that rely on crit.

Have recently just gotten another one of my characters to level 80, a warrior this time round, and am hesitant how to gear him, what to buy etc, so will most likely just wait for the new roll out, to see how it effects game play.

Have recently started playing WVW a lot as well, so spent a load of gold on gearing my thief up to a heavy crit dmg WVW build, wondering if that was a decision i’m going to regret soon as well, only time will tell i guess…..

So, whats everyone’s thoughts and opinion’s in regards to this change, is it for the good, how do you think it is going to change the game play, interested to see what others think about this.

Cheers.

Hey guys, thought i’d gear of my theif for WvW, just wondering if it matters what armor i use , this is the build ’m using http://intothemists.com/guides/307-daggerpistol_backstab_by_rand_x_al_thor.

does it matter what armor i use as long as it is 80, and gives + power and precision, does it matter if it’s like the WvW armor, or dungeon armor, or karma armor, i’m guessing not, what armors do you guys use/recommend.

Cheers.

i cant get on with sword/pistol, always used d/d since the game first came out, but recently switched to d/p about 2-3 weeks ago in spvp, seem to be getting on better with it, the gap closing, and stealths are a lot better, d/d is sweet if u can land Cloak and dagger, but it’s hard to land.

how often is it?

sweet will check it out, thanks.

with what traits?

including runes, sigils etc, for been using d/d, and shortbow, always jumping around builds, but there doesen’t seem to be a great deal of thief builds around.

what do you guys use?

what about dungeon builds?

what sort of traits, runes, sigils etc, would you guys suggest for a dungeon build with d/d, and sb? finding it pretty difficult to find someonline
