Guild Wars 2

J Eberle.9312:

People are actually coming out in this day and age and parading around the fact they are running AH?

How embarrassing.

What’s embarrassing in using AH? I’m pretty sure every Guardian had tryed that at leats once, and also, as explain in this topic multiple times is viable. Non-optimal but viable.

Meta runners allways thinking of themselfs as a superior race, oh well

It’s funny to see how ppl still bring to the table the classic 1vs1 to argue that a class is OP or not WHEN this game isn’t near to be optimal to any 1vs1 encounters. PvPers I know you all want 1vs1 but 1vs1 is a terrible way to judge and compare classes. This is why I don’t even care about WvW roaming anymore. Because no matter what I don I will allways encouter 1 guys that knows exactly what to do agaist my class and not matter what I do I will die and die angaist him. This also applys to the childs that cry for nerfs when they lost 1vs1. GW2 IS NOT A GAME TO DO 1 VS1

Okay I’m just here to say that an arguement between this 2 “factions” is useless. Both are to arrogant to listen to the other clearly. And I could bring some speach to the table to tell how everyone is worng trying to force ppl playing some specs but not would listen.
For many time I’ve run AH and not even once I got complains of my build. I try the meta dye x times, and guess who’s without a party. Most ppl don’t even care what i’m running as long as the party don’t get wiped and we end up clearing the boss. And as long as any build allows me to do that, that build is viable no matter what you say. It is optimal? Might as well not be, but it is for me and thats what kittening matters

From what I’ve seen in this forum, Hammer builds go with this

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fUAQNAS8dlUgiC3FyMEfIFSmCRCBtPAQ1HiHMFakHB-jwBBYfCykfQUBBOzsIasFXFRjVXDT5iIqWKgIWAA-e

(if your are the main/only source of condi removal)

or this

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fUAQNAS8dlUgiC3FyMEfIFRWBRazAgHs+Q8wUoRPC-jwBBYfCykfQUBBOzsIasFXFRjVXDT5iIqWKgIWAA-e

(if your party has enough condi removal/ not just you with condi removal)

If i’m not wrong those are the 2 meta for Hammer in PvE

1. Elementalist (this class is worthless in PvP)
2. Warrior (Overpowered, from someone who gone from Guardian to Warrior, Warrior just feels like a truck, I hit harder even when I’m more tough than a Guardian)
3. Necromancer (Too strong with Condis, too weak with Power)

Hey guys
I’m lvling a Warrior right now and I want to know if there is a build that can do both jobs PvE/WvW fine. I’m not asking for the meta, I know wich is it and I will not run it most likely (I’m trying the meta in my Guardian and I’m not enjoying it, that the main reason I’ve switching my focus to Warrior), I’m asking for a build that can do both PvE and WvW fine, if such thing exists. Trait build, not equips because those in PvE will be erker anyway (but if a full WvW build here would be nice, just to get an idea, I know a popular on is 0/0/30/10/30 Hammer/GS, but is taht good for Zerg).

Ty, hope you can help

You guys really need to chill
The OP is not even listening to this non-sence anymore if he’s smart. He asked for advice he got it it’s also up to him to follow as is up to anyone to use any build. Sure some want to be and use the best and they will follow the meta and change their builds as the class chanes. Some will use want they are most confortable behing the meta or AH. No one here is forcing anyon to use anything why trying to say that one is better than the other? Is up to the player and how he use the build. I must say I’ve been trying to use the meta and yet my results are pure failure and I feel like i’m being carryed and it will be up to me if I continue this way or I get back to my confort zone.

You look like the spvp comunity when I started playing spvp in which I would go bunker or I could gtfo and they wouldn’t even care when it’s proven that Guardian roamer is also viable and better than other classes at that job.

This forum has week mods otherwise this would be closed by now

Well I kinda like the meta, but I also like AH.
I think personally both are good for PvE and I do’t really care what other say because the whole purpose of this game originally was to play how you want not like other want and thats what metas tend to do. “Unless you run this you are not viabe”. WRONG. you are all forgeting what this game wanted for us to do and just pushing builds. You all are going to say that this doesn’t really matter but from my personal experience with both build right till now, I prefer AH. I pug most content and I must say, Shout give more support. WoR is great adn that one is a must when you know where to use but Purging flames requires for people to stay in the area. Now in Fractals this is good ppl usually stack, but in another dgns this doesn’t happen at all times and so ince the most content I run ppl don’t stack I foun that most times the consecration only ends up affecting just my than my allies. So don’t say shouts are bad because they aren’t, in a pug situation they end up being better in most cases because I can still give them boons or cleanse their condition and they are able to still do damage from a far if they choose too.

About damage, till now, since I do most with pugs, my biggest WW was 11k. With AH and Zerker my biggest was 9k. Less 2k but I got down way less time than with the meta. AH is more forgiving of mistakes than the meta, therefore I think it’s the best and optimal build for pugging and the meta is the best for organized groups. For instance if you have a core group done and you do most content with them, meta all the way. If you have to take newbies and pugs that don’t have mastered the class in most cases than go with AH. But I don’t really care what it is your build and you also shouldn’t. kitten if I cared i couldn’t do any content with my guild just 2 or 3 tops run metas with their class. Does that make them bad players? No. I can complete any content with them so far.

The OP asked for advice, some recomended the meta other didn’t, still that doesn’t make the other half right or wrong. Meta is an option, not an obligation, as AH is an option too, a viable one eitheir you want it or not. kitten for me any option is viable if it get the job done. And I mean if at the end I get the dgn done with no wipes and in a good time, I don’t care wich build they had but I’m sure it was viable

obal.3218:

Hammer 15/25/0/20/10 is the best thing for fractals. The 20/25/0/0/25 is the better for everything else.

It’s Purging Flames enough for condi removal? And with that I will have to use it pretty much everytime since it will be the only condi removal

Painbow.6059:

I would honestly recommend sticking with the full zerker. As you improve and get used to the build you will survive perfectly well in full zerker, but at first you will die a lot. Baptism by fire, you will learn to play better in the long run

I hope you are right because today it was painfull. i might try Hammer and try get used to the 15/15/0/20/20 first and than move to the meta. It will also help with the weapon master archivements
It hurts a bit for me that I had to gave up the roaming build for now and I was so used to AH before but this change will help, I know it will. I will leave AH for WvW (since I will change traits when doing WvW I will go now with Healway) and I can focus on PvE. I never knew why I tend to focus in WvW builds but still play more PvE than WvW (kinda stupid)

Hey guys
Well today I decided to try the future meta build posted by Opal, 20/25/0/025 full Zerker. i must say it’s amayzing, i never believed that a Guardian could do so much damage, But I’m having a hard time getting used to (I just had the longest lvl 12 fractal ever) it. I’ve heard that when this happens i should switch to Knight armor instead of Zerker but instead of that I want to know if this also does the job.

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fUAQNAsdRlUgqCHGyMEf4ESmCRCBteAQHk/UpIeuHA-j0xAYfBRyPAVIiZvioxWcLiGruGT5SEVDA-w

I have also changed from 20/25/0/0/25 to 20/30/0/0/20 to compensate a bit for the precision lost.

You two look like kids argueing about wich is better, Coca-cola or Pepsi.
I must say, AH is not optimal, but I use it. Now I use it because my main focus is WvW, Zerg and Roaming and so most dgns I do is just AC and CoF, the 2 most easy dgns in the game and switching traits just to do 2 dgns don’t seem worth for me. I know it’s not optimal, but no one asures me that my other team mates also run the meta for their classes so as i don’t judge anyone, anyone shouldn’t judge me too. But I’m not a jerk and if I go do hard pve like fractals high lvl (not there yet) I will change for the meta in that area since I know anyone there will also do the same.

Now if you are only a PvE player you shouldn’t use AH in any situation. You are better with the meta.

Hi guys
So what i’m here to ask is not wich does more damage, because that I know, Warrior is the class that does more damage from all classes in PvE so that’s not hard to see.
Well recently I’ve tryed roaming with my guard and I did not like it so i quit the idea, but roaming gave my the idea of going damage build with my Guardian in PvE. But then I asked “Why? Warrior does way more damage”. But then my warrior is only lvl 52.
So between deciding lvling my warrior or stay with guardian I have decided that this decision will be final according to the most support given to the party.

So between the Guardian 20/25/0/0/25 and the Warrior 30/25/0/0/15 builds wich gives more support? To answer this imagine the damage being the same because support by giving damage is not taken in consideration here. i want to know wich give more support through Utilites and elite and even weapons (Guardian is GS & S/F and Warrior is GS & A/M)

Ty guys
AND I said why this is with Travelers

“(this setup is done thinking of which items I have, so Runes of Traveler are there becase I use them in WvW Roaming, and since I already have with me 2 armor sets I don’t feel like having another just for fractals, since from what I’ve seen travelers aren’t that bad either for PvE)”

Neverminder.3296:

I’m thinking meditation for roaming. I’m looking at a combo of soldier/cleric.

With meditation roaming it doesn’t work
To be honest I think for roaming it only works Zerker with something else. That or the Healway by Christos de Soufre but idk if still works nowadays

Hey uys
I’m thinking in getting into Fractals more. Currently I’m only lvl 18 but I want to max this. First I though just going to 30 and stay there, but then I thought “Why not 50?”
So to do this I have done some research in this forum and found that I think this is what ppl recomend for Hight lvl fractals (this setup is done thinking of which items I have, so Runes of Traveler are there becase I use tehm in WvW Roaming, and since I already have with me 2 armor sets I don’t feel like having another just for fractals, since from what I’ve seen travelers aren’t that bad either for PvE)

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fUUQNAS8dlUgyBXFyLEfIFSmCRCBtPAQ1HiHMFakHB-jQCBYfQYLBm+AiKIwJPFRjtMsIasqFYKXER1eDYA-e

Now, with this would I be fine in high lvl fractals? Should I start with this now even though I’m lvl 18 to get used to the build?

Hey guys. I’m soon to have 9k AP and with this I will have the helm of the Radiant armor set. What I’m asking here is suggestions of heavy armor pieces that look good with this 3 pieces of armor(gloves, shoulders and helm) because I would like to use them, I just don’t have where because the armor that I have doesn’t look all that great with those…

Hope you can help

Ty for the feedback again guys

Tree.3916:

Why do people feel that there is a problem? Everything is working as intended. Deal with it.

So Anet wnat us to skip most of the dgn’s content and want people to sell dgn runs too? This just promotes scamming since if you buy a path you can’t be sure if you will get what you want or if you just will get robbed.
I prefer runnign dgn’s to make gold over anything in this game. But because of this mentality I just run CoF and AC since it’s the easiest and what most people farm. I would actually try another dgn’s if they fixed these 2 since the ime to do these or other would basicly be the “same”.

I aggre. Shield is one of the weapons I would love to use in PvE and WvW. But I can only do it in PvP and be viable. Although I think your improvements would be OP. Shield of Judgement giving those 3 boons would make the first trait of Virtues less needed, but giving those with a 30% more damage? Not going to happen. I think that skill need is a damage increase (smaller one, not 30%) and coldown redution (like 20 seconds).
Shield of Absorption imo need also a coldown redution and bigger heal. That or take the heal and once allies get in it give them either protection or aegis. That or just switch for a AOE Block, like the focus block but AOE (this could become OP too, so maybe not)

At this point, anything that can make Shield viable I’m okay with.

Hey guys. Build have been working so far, but I want to ask if this way is also viable, so basicly is Inspired Virtue much of a diference? Does this work fine?

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fUAQNAsdRlUgSDHHyNEf4ERVh4h9QjeMjXPgYEbIA-jUyAYfIsVApPBiKAm8KiGbxsIasKbMl7QqVvQCBIbCA-w

I could try it my self and will since it doesn’t hurt, but I’m asking because with this trait setup, I could allways swich from roaming to zerg build on the go just by switching gears and traits in those lines, and so I could command if I feel like to without having to go WP and reset traits. I also have change some parts of the gear, but the final stats are pretty much the same, is just because the way it is now allows me to have full ascended Trinkets.

Just showing final version with what I have right now

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fUAQNAsdRlUgSDHHyNEfIFRugqCxDnRFz41DIGxGC-j0yAYfIsVApPBiKAm8UWzeCiFzioxqWwUlQK3hU7NimQAymAA-w

I didn’t switch Rune of Speed for Travelers, is just until I am able to get Travaler because they are expensive, as sson as I able to get them I will, and Speed aren’t that bad either, more Vit never hurts. As time goes everything will become ascended.

Warrior will not be even close from over with that “nerf” and to be honest it was deserved. Having a Warrior with as muc regen as a Guardian but still maintain double or more of the damage is just crazy

Ty guys for the feedback. As soon I have gold I’ll buy a six pack of Traveler runes and I’m good to try this out.

Hey guys
I decided to try roaming since zerging all the time get a bit boring. I don’t have any grou to roam with so I roam solo. Do you think this spec can work in solo roaming?

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fUAQNAsdRlUgSDHHyNEfIFRuA7DAETRFz41DIGxGC-jkCBYfQYLBk+IQUBgJPKrZPCilhFRjVtAT5iIq2bATKAK2CA-w

I also would like more suggestions of other builds and improvements for this one if it’s viable, (this is based in what i can get faster, since aside of the runes and sigils, I have everything else) so other builds are also welcome, since I don’t know what is more common in Guardian Roaming.

Eyia Hellhide.7320:

Okay, thank you. I made the 2 changes in my traits and will try like this now. But why soldier’s jewel on your amulet?

Personal preference. I don’t see the use of 75 presicion. It gets me to 8% crit chance but I only benefit for crit is to get vigor. I know vigor is important but you can’t even get that one permanent anymore. If I try 0/5/5/30/30 soemday I will switch to barbarian but right now Solider have being work just fine for me

I’m no expert but in that build need some changes.
Personal preference, I go with Strength in Numbers in the valor tree, It gives more support and helps you being even more “tank”, but if you feel like condition are to much of a problem stay with Purity. I also haven’t tried Resolute Healer but I will, meanwhile I’ve used symbols heal since you have 2 of the and as soons as fight strats they should be on the ground. I also use consecrations recharge faster because I feel like faster and longer Santuary is good, but the trait Consecrations are ground targeting skills is also good if not better, Haven’t tried yet too.

Now I think, Absolute Resolution isn’t questionable, that have to be in every bunker build, Great Condi removal to you and your team mates. If you run x/x/x/30/30 that traits need to be there allways.

Also i switch between Mace, Sword or Scepter, it depends on the map. Mainly Mace, i go Scepter in Legacy of the Foefire and Sword in Khylo. When you switch to sword or Scepter change the trait of symbols heal if you have it to Resolute Healer.

Most of the times I run with this: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fUAQNApeWlUgqCnFSPEf4ES2DRCBTQsHY0H1RXFSIA-TsAgzCtIySllLLTWyssZNaY9x8DA

I have a Sylvari, but if it was today i would rolled Asura. I might even do one some day if I don’t care abou farming all again to get commander and ascended weapons and etc. I like the animations and since I have allways like small races I should have stayed with them. Lore wise I my favorite are both Sylvari and Asura

I knew i had already seen Psy build somewhere yesterday when I fought you. I’m the commander in thta last fight of the video close to Durios. kitten you fought really well. But commanding pugs with only chat while most people was with the guild Blod kinda hard, specially for me, yesterday was my first time in EB and I don’t have much experience as commander yet. Once again, congratz, kitten good fights.

I’ll asume you are in Vabbi because being in the last place of EU you allways have tough fights every week no?

Maybe something like this would get better results.
I also don’t know with the builder you used got higher stats but this one I found it’s allways correct with the game

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fUAQNAR8dlUgSDHHyKEf4ESmiVCBtUAQH01DIKiaIA-jECBYfCy0HwUBBK7pIaslhFRjVXDT7aI1qXQyAssFA-w

I changes to personal preference, idk if it’s better or not, but I think you would get better results with S/F than with Hammer (more damage maybe, but more blocks and blind to help you survivability. Hammer/GS probalbly would worth more if you had invested in symbols but you haven’t, so….

I just wanna say that inWvW I don’t use zerker, just in PvE
So it’s Bloodlust worth it in PvE? Would this do more DPS? I just use staff for might stacking

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fUAQNAR8dlUgyC33xKEm4ESWhCE7BGBfd01DKyhYIA-jQzAYfAsVkRXJjgAQZgoPJjEBn8KiGbxtIasqFMVJkydI1ejoJDg+WA-e

Hey guys. I will use this topic to ask about the build I am using in PvE because it is the same as in WvW, so the matter is the same. But I have 1 question
This is the build:

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fUAQJARWlUgyC33xKEm4ERWhVi9AjwvjXPooDZIA-jAzAYfAsFE6KZUGA6TyIRQJviox2GKiGraBTVCpcHSt3IayAovFA-e

My question is, in PvE do you think it would be better to use Sigil of Blood or the Sigil I have that increases Might Stack since it will proc with Empowering Might and it will give my more Might. I also have the Staff to stack more Might and support my group.
Or is the Sigil enough and I should switch Empowering Might with Two-Handed Mastery and get lower coldowns (I use that trait in WvW)

Any thoughts?

I prefer 0/30/30/5/5, it was a build like this that I used when I started in sPvP. It’s really fun but as I enjoy tournements more than Hot join i found that bunker as a much higher rate of win as a team than Damage Guardian. If you ever do tournements and have a bunker already this is a strong build for altenative (Guardians actally make quite good roamers if played well)

Hey guys
Recently I’ve made a topic about Shield getting negative note on the weapon combo used so I though of something else. I want something “fresh” because I’ve played most of this game wih GS and I’m not a fan of Hammer. So I though of S/F with Staff for PvE while being a Damage/Support character. This is what I come up with:

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fUAQNAsdWlUgyC33xKEmIFRuAbBYPwI8741jE6QGC-jwxAYLBxkXR0YbGFRjVtgpKhVuDR1bkZA-e

The build is with I currently have, so I did not put full Ascended. Runes I can go with Soldier if I want or see the need for extra condition cleanse. I know Valor is a selfish line but it gives the enough survivability I need and with that I don’t feel the need for more defencive equipment and so I can focus entirely on Damage with those.

I also have another question. I know in sPvP Shield is the most used weapon because of the knowback, but for a bunker build couldn’t I use Focus too? I’ve seen some in tournements (I saw on Youtube) that used it.
Something like this is viable for bunker/support?

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fUAQJgdWlUgyCXFSPEf4ES2DRCBTQsHYEA0RXFSIA-ToAgzCtIySllLLTWyssZt+Y+B

In the builder I did not choose a primary because I will be switching between Mace/Sword and Scepter depending on the map and Team, and I will also change 1 of the raits in Honor depending if I go with Mace or one of the other.

Looks like I can’t get any other weapon unless GS
This game need new weapons. Getting tired of all the option only 1 or 2 are the viable ones, the game gets a bit tired

Hey guys
Yeah, I still want it, I just want to use a Shield in PvE and WvW, since I can do it in PvP but I will not just do PvP. I know it’s not nealy the best weapon, but from playing Guard I know that is also not entirely useless. Anyway this is what I will try

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fUAQNApeWlUgSDHHyNEg4ERWBRi9Qje8jXPg4DbIA-jUyAYLBRCTEpCAJviox2MKiGraBTVCrcHiq3IzA-w

Not, Sword/Shield because is the weapon that gives most damage in 1H (Sword). I know this build would do much better with x/30/30/x/x but I will also use (try) Mace/Shield for WvW zerg and since i don’t want to change traits everytime I want to do something in open world (in WvW I would change some traits, but the it would still be and AH build). I feel like it can work with a Damage/Support in PvE. I am also curious with what I could do here with the new stat combo and use a Mace isntead of a Sword.
Anyway what do you think? Acceptable for pugs? I don’t do any hardcore PvE like Fractals lvl 30+ (I am only lvl 18) and I don’t do World bosses that much either.

Anyway I will problably try this my self anyway, but I would like to have some feedback.
If i get this possible I will be sure to make the Legendary Shield. It will take a while, but I will have it if this works

I wonder how many times you had to be beat up by a Thief, while using a condi build, in order to create this topic. And if you got beat up that many times, WITH A CONDI BUILD there is 2 options:

1º – The Thief was really, but REALLY good, and in all WvW maps you just encontered that Thief and no other
2º – You suck so bad, that even new players would do better (since condi builds most likely are bunk also, and if you are not then Idk what are you doing with that build, adn most are just faceroll builds… SPAM CONDIS, SPAMMMMMMMM)

redslion.9675:

Ain’t not like you are occupying the spot of another bunker. If someone wants a bunker guardian, he can still take it. Considering the same class should fulfill multiple roles, having both a dps and bunker guardian isn’t going to hurt.

I never complained with anyone because he didn’t bring a bunker guardian, for I didn’t want to use one myself. So I am no one to judge.

Well looks lie there are still people who get it
Uff really appreciated this guys, quite a refreshing. I’m even thinking of getting more into PvP than WvW (it what as been appening), even that I lose most of the solo q matches if I quit now I will not go any further. I’ll also try Thief ..

Good Luck in the battlefield

ahuba.6430:

it’s like that in any game that has a game mode that pairs you with strangers. when you don’t know the others playing with you it’s always easy to act all witty and put all blame in others. it’s typical solo queue attitude. welcome to the pvp side of online games

That’s true but in GW2 is nothing like this anywhere else. What also kittenes my off is that Engi’s and Mesmer tend to act like really good pro’s, just because are usng a class that aparently has some build where you can do good smashing the key board. This ones are really what i hate the most because if we lose they never have the fault because again, they are using the Engi or the Mesmer, or the Necro ….

Thanks guys for the feedback, was just getting this clear. I will problably slow down in PvP when patches start coming anyway but till then it has been my main source of finishing daylies and getting laurels, I even forget to go do CoF (dgn I farm “everyday”) because I lose too much time in here. It’s a good part of the game that I sure want to became better than I am (rank 23 right now). Maybe new pvp mode would be nice to, just too see if DPS Guard is more viable there or not.

Btw another thing. People allways complain to me because I’m not a bunker, but while I am not one because I don’t like it why can’t they be one too? There are other classes beside Guard that can be bunkers and hold points just as well or better

Hey guys
I play a DPS Guard in sPvP, and while I’m fairly new, the sPvP comunity isn’t helping me to stick to this side of the game. I often encounter the most awful people that I never did before in this game. My conclutions of 2 weeks of sPvP everyday (solo qs) are these:

Either I go Bunker with my Guard and people are “less” idiots since they need me
Or I’m DPS like I would like to master (I don’t like being Bunker) and I’m the most useless, the most noob that exists in this game.
Like literally, the first time I got into a solo q I said “playing DPS guys, hi” and the mesmer comes “then you are useless” like what is her/his problem with me?
I feel like I wither g Bunker and don’t enjoy playing with my main class or I better make a new character like and Engi, or Phantasm Mesmer or Minion Master Necro because otherwise I’m a worthless piece of nothing ….

What is wrong with you people? Are you that big of a comunity that don’t need any more members so lets insult any new player that comes? Seriously.

This is the build I’ll be running when I have my Warrior at 80

For my I did some changes since I hate to see the 916 toughness (yes I’m picky) and I’ll go with this, not much of a difference.

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fIAQNBMhFaE0J5N2xFiJOAcekETTpUMXdJFixGA-j0yAYLioRySgoPgJvioxWJDSbIaNiwqYwUuLqWFD4PwkBQfLA-w

Oh btw in ths vid he get rune of the monk for 15% boon duration but the main reason is to get perma swiftness, so since it just to get that I’ve prefered to go with runes of the pack and get 2k Power

Sorry bumping into this old topci but since the matter is the same I wanna ask about this build, what do you guys think?

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fUAQNApeWlUgyC33xKEf4ERWhVi9AjfsjXPS4DZIA-jEyAoNBR6TEpCAZxioxWZLiGreBT9SEV7PwkBgZLA-w

I can try it with out much lose since I just don’t have the weapons, but before trying it I would like some ideas. Sorry insisting but I would love to play this game with Shield and I can’t find anything good with it for what I want, so it make almst this weapon loooks useless with any class (except engi)

Well I just roll the old AH with full zerker. Nothing to do with these builds and the DPS is lower but you will be able to do damage and pretty much not die to most of the PvE content (I’m not talking to hardcore content like fractals over certain lvl 30).
I use this because I use the build for WvW and I don’t fell like changing everytime I want to do a dgn like cof or ac. I’m saying this because I think is a good start to learn when to dodge and use blinds, because even though you have pretty much enough survivability you will still not be able to just stay in front of the mobs the entire fight

What about the mace? Or Axe? Are those viable choices for PvE if I want to keep the Shield?
This is me problably missing the trinity though …

So, why does this game even have a shiled if it is just useless with the main classes? This build wouldn’t work in PvE?
Did you guys at least read what I said atfer the link?

Hey guys
I’m planning to use a build for WvW with the following trait composition, 10/0/30/30/0, and to avoid switching traits from WvW and PvE I thought in maintaining the build but go full Zerker for PvE content.
Could you guys, that play Warrior way more than I do, tell me if this can do for general PvE content (Dgn’s, Fractals till lvl 30, more than that not worth for me, World bosses, etc):

Now, I love the Sword/Shield looks, can I maintain that for PvE, even if I change build? I like that look because I’m used to play Tank in other MMO’s so I’m used to the Shield with Sword or even Mace so this is why I want to play with a Shield in this game too. But from between Warrior and Guardian, Warrior is the one that have best Shield skills.
This is not hard questions but since I don’t even have my Warrior at 80 yet I would like to see if it is still worth lvling it or just go for my Guardian, because if this isn’t good I will problably not lvl up this class till 80, and if I do it will be in a long-time period

You can play damage Guard?
Most of the solo queue I get into if I have anything that says damage people automaticly go “Great a damage Guard” with profound sarcasm since that usually is folloed with insult too if we lose, because automaticly is my or any other guards fault.
Since then i go Healway with M/S and Staff if we don’t have bunker, if we have I’ll go GS & Sword/F

Hey guys
I’m was thinking the other day about changing my sylvari looks and it occured to my "Would a Sylvari, made os wood and leaves, be able to change his “haircut” as a human or norn?". Because the other races have real hair is not difficult to see that is possible but a race that has leaves and stick in his head, would it be possible? Would they grow different leaves if they wanted too? Or in a real sittuation it would only be possible with magic?

Hey guys
Do you think, it’s possible to roam, with S/P and a stealthless Thief?
Personaly I would like that this was possible, since S/P is my second favourite set of the class after D/D.
Not knowing if it is or not I elaborated a quick build for it. Here it is:

Now, as said I want to try being stealthless. Now stealth is a big part of the Thief that allows regeneration and increased survivability, also allows us to engage and disengage when we want if we can apply the stealth. But people also complain about this. I don’t care much but I would like to try a Thief without using this mecanic and so using Shadowsteps, evades and blinds to survive.
What do you think?

I’m a commander but a new one, and I’m having a really rough start. I don’t even know if I will continue. But I’m not allways commanding

I’ll try something and see if it is viable. Thanks for the feedback
