Guild Wars 2

WvW, there is one guy i think he is newly created toon, he was idling at far side of a supply camp, i found him and kill him… then zap drop

First of all sorry for my bad english.

TL DR : GW2 do not require you to do "Champion Train " style which is running in circle around the map to kill the same mob over and over again to level up from 1-80 and waiting for a single mob to drop certain item , all you need to do is establish yourself and create the variation of activity during each play time yourself

A. New Entry to Exotic : Establish Yourself

TLDR : if you able to establish yourself getting exotic and ascended accessory don not feel like a grind, the stat you will get with this setup can tackle any content such as wvw and dungeon

Find yourself good guilds that will help you run through group content such as doing dungeon story and wvw, while you enjoy the journey through every map available and also enjoy some chat with them and other. As you approach or near 80 you can join the guild mission which give you Guild Commendation and combine that with laurel and Dungeon token around 1 or 2 month from your first 80 you will have character full of exotic and Ascended Accessory

B. Beyond 80 : it was human nature to surpass every border

TLDR : This part is for dedicated player that want to dedicated more effort to the game

1. Crafting ascended armor weapon and legendary : too expensive ? " bad grind ?"

I say no, do we know why Guild Wars 2’s Trading post still working ?, imo its because people still buy and sell low level material which make the economy somewhat still running and new entry player can make some gold buy selling “that soft wood log”

Ascended armor and weapon can give the owner prestige and extra sense of achievement and for weapons it is more cheaper than legendary with “that precursor”, even the guy with full ascended and dual legendary cant steamroll people on wvw or pvp and nobody will rage if you do bigger damage on dungeon or pve content.

2. Fractals

i am not doing this content but my friend which have fractal weapons say that this was his prize for hardwork and he will be sad if this item drop on level 1 and also your character do not get torn to pieces by those who use fractal weapons either

C. Conclusion

If you able to establish yourself you will get exotic armor and weapon WITH ascended accessory with that setup you can tackle this content or tomorrow’s

Precursor need to be easier

Even with full ascended you can t steamroll people on wvw and no one will rage if you do more damage on dungeon or pve content

This game have grind but you dont feel the grind if you have community and be social while getting yout objective

i actually do this build and have a good wvw, not so good in dungeon , use 25 arm to get 10 % to bleed foe than your 5 skill is going to be very good.

20 power, berserker power and dual wielding
25 power, rending strike, blademaster, attack of opportunity
15 discpline, hegihtened focus , and reduce swap thing
10 tactic , empowered
utility , i usually use dolyak signet for stability
i use berserker archtype, so my final chain skill 1 damage aroun 3,5 k, and my damage is very direct
on wvw it is very good shock build as those glass cannon dont want warrior up close and personal with skill 2, and your chain 1 is very quick to do some fast damage not to mention the bleed, and you can use skill 4 and 5 for maximum damage.

maybe it is theoritically wrong but … hey i have good time in wvw

in dunge well not very good you have decent dps but squishy

I have very fun moment with axe warhorn type warrior, my equipment is berserker to the core and weapon too. And i decided to give it a try and off course my trait and playstyle is diffrent depend on situation.

in WvW
this warrior is my second 80 char so i level it up in WvW 80% of time, and learn to do WvW correctly when iam alone as simple as follow command, after i get this insight here is how i chop people face
Weapon
Axe warhorn

Longbow

Trait
Strengh 10 Berserker power
Arm 15 : Deep Cut, and Critical Burst
Defence :0
Tactic20 Empowered, and quick breathing
Discipline 25 Signet Mastery ,Heightened focus and versatile power

Utility :
Great justice
Dolyak signet
Shake it off
Signet of rage

Playstyle and utility is diffrent depending on what scenario i calculate will happend

Scenario 1 Zerg support

Commander sometime rally people to take objective and there will be a stream of people but it is very usntable unless majority is guild organized, my role here is as Quarter master, i blow horn to the people that have condition and give them shout that is use full and with my axe i have no problem attacking people.

“Combusive shot deliverer”, my role is in the middle but that doesnt mean i am kitten too, there will be time when some deterence and aoe support must be made and combusive shot is the nastiest, the idea is to land it at the right time and the right moment , as in zerg mentality very few who gonna sacrifice themself. so i use every boon that i have

Vigor, swiftnees.fury,might,stability (maybe some bonus regen from friendly) due to empowered it is impacting the damage of my full burst combusive and just today the timing is perfect and when the shot land perfectly everyone is wasted the burning almost 3 k and the critical is around 1k in a sec every one in the aoe is down especially those glass cannon that have so much fun damagiing couldnt dodge good enough neither down or simply scatter.The trick is to land it on the right time and it is depend on your skill

Scenario 2 Defend and attacking

i change my dolyak to fury so i can use my combusive more often to the wall or wwhen iam on top of it, and also by doing some of my warhorn skill to convert the condition. my role is to support defender and deter nemey with my longbow and pray reinforcement arrive.

in Dungeon

i run on same berserker armor with warhorn /axe and longbow but have hammer, riffle,GS in my inventory,, and switch depend on situation

in COF for instance the burning can be covered by warhorn but do to the nature of dungeon i retrait for hammer while not changing my berserker archtype, maybe iam not that tank-y but the precious time can be bought by the CC

So Warrior is master of all weapon and iam trying almost every weapon set than i realize the good warrior is the one who use weapon as best as it could deliver
