Guild Wars 2

reserved for randomness

Feel free to comment and dislike my build ^^

http://www.gw2db.com/skill-builds/2438-umis-matrix-style

The background of my build comes from being able to survive in high level fractals.

I have run this build from early fractals to the upper 30’s without any issues.

Reason for 30 Strength

Since this is a Greatsword Finisher build i do prefer the 30 points in Strength. With the 30 points in Strenght you gain several key passive traits i will not list all but only those that makes this build work as intended:

Reckless Dodge: This is a dodge build why not add damage to the dodges.
Building Momentum: Burst skill (F1) restore endurance
Berserker’s Might: Get the stance Berserker’s Stance when you gain 5 stacks of might. This works very well with Signet of Rage’s cooldown of 48 seconds.

Reason for 10 Arms

Furious Reaction: Gain fury and vigor for 10 seconds if you take 10% damage of your maximum hp. In fractals most hits will take 10% of your hp in one hit. Now you will gain fury and vigor by taking a hit.

Reason for 10 Defense

Sure-Footed: Increase stance duration by 25%, Longer stances yes please.
Reason for 20 Discipline

Versatile Rage: 5 strikes free on weapon swap
Signet Mastery: 20% less cooldown on your sigils
Fast Hands: Makes Versatile Rage even better
Vigorous Focus: The bread and butter trait for this build. Vigor when using a stance.

To sum up what this build does:

It gives you 3 condition removals with Mending, Signet of Stamina and Signet of Rage due to Lyssa runes.
It gives you very high endurance regen with Signet of Stamina, Vigor boon, Building Momentum endurance regain with F1 spam

I had an idea a while back http://www.comeseemeplay.com to use as a hosting site for people with gaming streams. Just not sure if i want to go on with my idea or not..

Im thinking if you ever played TERA the charge skills for berserker is kinda the same thought for the 5th skill doing massive damage longer you hold more damage it does with a limit of x seconds ofcourse, as if you use all your force into a blow.

Second option would be like the axe offhand today but with a change that it will keep you rooted in a spot spinning until released. So basically replace name of skill 2 with Decaptitate and Rename 5 to Axe Spin or Blender :p

I was actually considering the F1 to be named Axe momentum, making you block all attacks for 1-2-3 seconds would fit a 2handed axe well in the perspective of a “huge” warrior with an axe. Or as you said a more RAAAAWR attack :p

Mabye also change it to cripple, but having cripple up on every autoattack will make people complain alot. Could also be flat damage with a higher base damage. TBH i dont really mind that either.

I love this idea, i did however change a little of the layout and skill descriptions. What do you think?

1: Chain: Axe Swing -> Axe Slice -> Axe Chop (range 130 same as greatswords causes bleed instead of vulnerability)

2: Execute: The Warrior lands a vertical swing dealing heavy damage and bleeding his enemies in a short line (8s)

3: Crippling Strike: The Warrior inflicts a sever wound to his target, dealing damage and crippling it for 5 seconds. (10s)

4: Axe Bash: The Warrior uses the blunt side of his axe to daze his enemy for 2 seconds. If he hits his enemy from the back he gets knocked down for 1 second. (15s)

5: Decapitate: Charge up a powerful attack (you wil move at slower speed during charge time but can still move) (20s)

F1: Berseker’s Rush: The Warrior sprints trough his enemies. Every enemy in the line of the rush is knocked down for 1-2-3 seconds depends on adrenaline and receive damage

Twice i have lost the sigil that this kit is suppose to salvage 100%.

Makes me a sad panda.
