There’s already bound to be at least 1 other ranger in your Zerg with spotter already, so you having it is useless. Personal survivability>>>than anything else as a commander, i cant stress that enough. And you’ll basically have perma regen and protection in a Zerg anyway. But why choose? You can have both, they don’t cancel out
Well since youre going for a commander theres your problem. A commander should be as absolutely tanky as possible. It doesn’t matter if you sacrifice support or dmg for personal survivability since if you go down the Zerg goes down. Your other zerglings will provide the dmg and support. You just be as tanky as possible.
Im pretty sure all skins will still function as they already do until you apply them to a weapon, and from there go into your wardrobe. Doubt they would actually give charges just for a skin. But you will get x1 charge per pvp rank
Have your ele try d/d aurashare, really strong for small groups. And if one of your friends has a thief or mesmer (or both) then youve got an awesome roaming squad
All this means is people will have to change builds. For example the 0/10/0/30/30 d/d can’t rip ele wont be as viable for roaming any more, even more so with the boon duration runes nerfed. But a 0/30/0/20/20 d/d ele with the new air trait will be awesome
I made a thread awhile ago when we first heard of these new traits but it didnt get a whole lot of attention. I think this build will be extremely strong roaming after the patch
No empowering adrenaline is pretty trash, especially for a condi build. Youd want either forceful explosives or shrapnel. Then in the master tier you ALWAYS want incendiary powder if youre condi
One that makes you invulnerable, stealthed you and allies around you in a 1200 radius for 20 seconds, heals you for 500% of your maximum health, creates 10 clones that this trait also affects, and deals 50,000 dmg to all enemies in a 2000 radius (no AoE cap), all on using the #1 skill (no ICD).
Mathematically the best d/d thief build possible. If you don’t feel like breaking the bank with divinity runes you can do soldier armor with ruby orbs and zerker everything else to get almost the exact same thing
What if i tried 0/30/0/20/20? Poor condi removal, but if i can just evade them in the first place then thats even better. And long reach and bountiful theft are sooo good
Most power roaming builds are 0/0/30/10/30 either cavalier with lyssa runes or and zerker weps/trinkets or zerker everything with melandru runes. This gets you 2100 power, 3k armor, 47% crit chance, 100% crit dmg, and 20k health. This build will actually be hit less by the ferocity nerf than other classes because of the 2 sigils on 2handers
I only went 10 in SA, double checked the link to make sure. Wondering if i can do better with the gear, and if maybe blind on stealth or infusion of shadow (to turn into more 3 spam) might be worth it
I tried this but with torch instead of scepter, I got serious “issues” with the scepter. Now I can see it shine though and really question my torch choice (TORCH?!). When i put the build together it all seemed so nice but when I played with it I just couldn’t get it rolling.
When I see you play it I’m smiling like an idiot, good to see someone who can play using it Gotta give it another try with your version and guides.
Scepter is a main hand, torch is an offhand. You can use both
Hi guys! I know s/d has fallen a bit out of the meta but i still love playing with the set. Im thinking of changing up my build to something like this, possibly using the new CS trait. I know a lot of you think its complete crap, but with the already fairly high healing from food, sigils, and assassins reward i think it might compliment the rest of my healing nicely. Anyway thoughts? Would you feel comfortable with this solo?
Looks pretty solid, and having phase retreat on a 6 sec CD is probably very helpful. Definitely change the runes tho, you could try undead or perplexity once they come to spvp. Could also try 10/20/20/0/20 to get either illusionary bounce which with the patch will also apply to clones making staff extremely deadly, or phantasm all haste, which will stack up a lot more bleeds for your duelist
30/10/0/20/10 with nades/EG is good, but an alternative would be 20/10/20/10/0 using power shoes for your movement speed and invigorating precision in firearms to proc vigor from alchemy
2. The reason warrios can do stuff whilst endure pain is active is because it is only immunity to physical damage, not CC or conditions. Mistform, elixir S, and renewed focus are immune to EVERYTHING while active
A warrior running two stances with stability can be immune to everything for 4s, apart from maybe boonstrip + non-fear CC. This is a problem.
How they can use two stances at once is hard to understand, anyway – the skills really ought to cancel each other, as they did in GW1, so that obtaining full immunity isn’t possible for such a heavy-hitting class.
Right and now that warrior has just used all 3 utilities and are now on a 40 sec/60sec CD. Are you gonna die in those 4 seconds?. If so i suggest changing your build up and getting some toughness. Or just kite him until endure pain is over
Sword/Dagger which used to be extremely good in duels and also has the shortbow which has many spammable evades. So I’m sorry for using a bad example in the original post.
Im sorry but if you die to disabling shot spam…just no
In the end though, what did all this accomplish? Bads will still cry warr OP. good players already knew how to beat warriors. All these threads you make won’t change that
1. Sw/p is NOT a 1v1 build for thieves. Its popular because you can cleave like mad for high dmg while being invulnerable on point. Its not for 1v1s
2. The reason warrios can do stuff whilst endure pain is active is because it is only immunity to physical damage, not CC or conditions. Mistform, elixir S, and renewed focus are immune to EVERYTHING while active
Why make two threads talking about how you made 8 threads, 7 if which were deleted? Not trying to be rude, but i dont think anyone really cares. Bad players will still complain, youre thread did nothing to help that. Good players already know how to beat warriors
Gotta give it another try with your version and guides.
