Can someone tell me the times other classes can do this ?

And nice Video btw

EDIT: just found a Staff Ele with 11,7 sec and a Warrior with about 10 sec post quickness nerf

Can you post the link for these videos ?

Nemesis.8593:

I recorded a few variations… i already knew which one would be highest, and i was right…
Tried a few variations of the power build, but i want to test out a “forced” conditionmancer modified with minions so i can make a few points.

Will make a video about it, and will post it soon

Great, looking forward to it.

Kratos.6293:

Can you please link it ?
Btw which build can do it the fastest? Hybrid,Condition or Power?

Condition DPS is capped at 3500, hybrid is a bit faster then condition… i believe power, but a modified version…

I’ll do a test kill, won’t prove much though, fractals/dungeons are not the same as a giant kill.

Ohh, Can i use your glass cannon build in dungeons ?
Nemesis replied to my post,Awesome !

Can you please link it ?
Btw which build can do it the fastest? Hybrid,Condition or Power?

If Axe 1 & 2 and cleave, that’d be great. Axe 2 won’t be op even if it can cleave. I mean look at 100b, it can cleave. 600 range is basically melee range.

JETWING.2759:

Warrior = versatile. I can play solo or with team, granting good dps and some suport for myself and my team. another good point in warrior are the mobility for capture points and cross the map in pve or wvw.

I don’t like superhuman/semi-god classes like Thieves, Mesmers, Elementarists or Rangers, i like challenger, and warrior are the only class in this game that provides this.

In conterpart, the lack of sustain or/and survival make the challenger heally absurdly hard and stressful, especially against players(sPvP and WvW).

lol challenger class ? open your eyes bro
warriors are sooo easy to play they do great amounts of damage without even trying. there is a reason why everyone wants warriors in dungeons. thieves, eles are squishy ,rangers are underpowered.

1.Does anyone know a good build that does direct damage as well as condition damage ?
2.Is it viable to go hybrid ?
3.Direct damage vs Condition damage which is better for a thief ?
4.Which one can deal the most amount of damage in a set amount of time?
5.I’ve seen condition builds that can solo champions(Madnek’s). Can Direct damage builds also do this ?
Thank you

and people complain about 12k backstabs…

I recently got into a great guild but it’s on a another world so is it possible to get one for free ? i don’t wanna spend 1000 gems.. do you think there will be an event for this in the upcoming future ?

Molch.2078:

And I’ve seen thiefs spamming 20k Heartseeker at lvl 75. Always depends on the situation. Warrior brings more buffs and AoE damage. A buffed thief brings more singeltarget damage and a few tricks, like stealth and smokefields. But I don’t know if we need another thread about thief vs. warrior dps.

Should it be a berserker build ?

Well, that depends on you. Do you want to invest some time, run with friends/guild, run the dungeons multiple times, learn the mechanics and master the game? Then it should be a berserker build. Always. On every class (very few exeptions).

If you usualy WvW/PvP and just want your Dungeon Master, use whatever fits your playstyle.

Do you know any thief that can spam 20k heartseekers ? I’m interested

Should it be a berserker build ?
Btw is the warrior’s dps higher than the thieves ?
I’ve seen warriors hit 40k+ using 100b.

I think we should have Demoralizing Banners. Sounds pretty cool but then again idk,i’m new to warriors.

Interpret Interrupt.3824:

Honestly, unless you really really want to play warrior, I would suggest playing a different class to sure yourself headaches in spvp. Now if this isn’t for spvp, then have at it. We are strong.

My main is actually a thief so i use that for spvp. I need a warrior for PVE/Dungeons.
I need to find the most efficient warrior build. I don’t mind being full glass cannon if the damage is really high.

Recently, I created a warrior. I want a be a dps greatsword warrior but i’m not sure on what i should have on off hand. Should it be a ranged weapon ? What build should i go with for maximum damage.

wow ! good job !! you have inspired me to start a necromancer !

YES ! they should do that.
I would like better damage and support, mostly support

Actually the traits,skills,armor is the same in pvp and pve but in pvp the armor stats are removed and completely fixed onto the amulets so it’s easier to experiment builds but some skills are different in pvp like backstab is 33% weaker in pvp than in pve

Recently i got to level 80 and i want to maximize my dps.
My build right now it 25 30 15 0 0
I use Dual Daggers & Shortbow
I got full exotic zerker gear(not trinkets) but i hit only about 6-7k(critical) on mobs. How much higher can i hit ?

Can you tell me what your build is ? btw nice

let’s see what happens tomorrow can’t wait !

Right now Pistol Whip is weaker than the auto attack (Sword/Pistol) and most of us S/P Thieves have no motivation to play gw2. Arenanet, Please fix it !

Yes it does work together

Asuran’s Starting zone is really depressing.
I love the Norn starting zone though.

@Shredicus wtf are you saying ? You think it would be right if a warrior can stealth ? Thieves have stealth because they have a really low health pool and they are a melee class. Some other classes have stealth ex. Mesmer

Its Awesome now !

and i thought i was rich… lol

I just wanted to know how much gold an average gw2 player has. 11 gold here

Agemnon.4608:

Faction.4013:

Thief.

Thats about all that needs to be said.

He said for PvE -_-

Thieves are also very good in pve… -.-

Its gotta be thief. I just killed like 10 wolfs at once using a shortbow… cluster bomb ftw ! and after you get dagger storm at lvl 30 things are even more epic cause you hit everything around you…

Initial Strike: Attacks with the first weapon-skill slot have a 7% chance to regain 1 initiative.
Opportunist: Critical hits have a 20% chance to restore one initiative (1-second cooldown).

I agree with you. I tried all of the classes but i had the most fun with the thief.
