Guild Wars 2

Hey Expandas, sorry I missed that earlier. I am interested, especially after watched your videos, but I am travelling a lot these days. I will have a day to rest this weekend, if you would be up for a chat and a meet on Saturday. I am at Seafarer’s Rest (EU).

Sad that you are leaving the game, although I bet you’re moving to greener pastures. I’d be delighted even if I could get a few pointers from you. Send me a message, if you have the time. Cheers!

Thank you so much, expandas. Very valuable info.

I am also thinking of a third option, Wanderer’s armor with Leadership or Durability runes. I’m especially intrigued by the insane HP pool along with toughness, which will make this toon very hard to kill.

Our server has a meta build consisting of a mix of Wanderer’s and Berserker’s with runes of Durability, around 100% boon duration and one Sigil of Concentration – not focused on mimic, tho, which I am eager to explore. I am going to make some tweaks to that to accommodate this playstyle.

I am very interested in a boonshare mesmer build for large-scale WvW battles, as opposed to my current (very effective, but ultra-boring) Epidemic Necro setup.

Would you consider a version where the armor & trinkets would be Commander’s, with Leadership runes? For the toughness and boon duration, along with some not-so-shabby damage.

Or a Minstrel’s set with Monk runes would make more sense, given the opportunities to heal with mantras? I am seeing that it can produce some very decent healing and obviously has loads of survivability, but that’s mostly that.

Thanks for the long explainer and the videos!
