Catalyst, tempest and weaver can all be built for great open world solo though, i run celestial catalyst personally.

Scrapper and catalyst, with full celestial catalyst with proper trait and baelfire rune it can solo legendary, and with other set of trait it can do more dps than full power quickness scrapper while having all stats and can give quickness 100%.

Im not trying to open a debate but heck, im up for opinions. 😛

I didnt mention it would be on par with full dps build either, its just fine for my need i dont bother with any CM content either, i find it way more fun, versatile, and in the end sometime more dps than my full power builds, i can actually finish casting the absurd long hammer skill and soak up huge damage instead of dodge and ruining dps, also great to rez others and dont die trying to.

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?PGQAIlZwuYasKGJOqOmRbA-zxIY1ogvMiLB6oAUeW26sC-e Thats when i support quickness. Also only fire elemental, lesser one share might up to 5 target, i believe my concentration level reflect how long they last? Otherwise change last cata trait to 2 and food to condi one. Im overstacked with fire duration to over 120%+. Fire damage being around 40% of my dps and earth 20%ish, i could probably benefit with other food/utility combo, to replace expertise. Even celestial weaver can do 30k on golem, and they wont benefit from elemental empowerement, ive seen such video some time ago. https://imgur.com/a/bCqH7Hr My 2 last attempts from earlier Beside, i dont really have a rotation, i just go what seems best, i should try to use grand final on fire field more often for more fire damage. Dont have any infusion either.

That depend quite a lot, so does others in the group, i think some of the highest was around 23-25k in strike, while some of highest i recall in fractal around 28k, single target, although most damage comes from fire so it take some time to build up dps. And golem 33kish. But i dont exactly follow a rotation either.

I actually use celestial catalyst with baelfire runes with earth+5% condi dmg sigil and fire/earth build for group content pve, sure it wont be the best dps on an immobile golem, but on real scenario i usually top dps in T4 while giving quickness, and others boon and second to third for strike/raids, more while using 20% stats trait instead (also a lot easier to keep 10 empowerment stack with this build), while being so tough i could pretty well finish bosses if group wipes. Its mostly like lord hyzen build so I bought an exotic hammer for proper sigil that would benefit solo open world. Maybe there are runes, sigil and foods that would increase pve group content dps further, but didnt get to experiment yet.

Ah this all make sense then Thanks!

Sometime ive noticed that the knockback get canceled, it did happen quite often yet i have no idea how it happen, yet i dont have the restrained condi on myself, otherwise i often switch to water and buffer 4 to close gap. I dont really like the knockback but it did save my kitten a few time from aoe.

Yeah... No screw fresh air and prehaps power build at this point they nerfed jade from 5 to 15 secs... Why

When it comes to self buff sustainability from catalyst, dagger/dagger easily meet the requirements, but ive not really tried the hammer yet.

Ive alway enjoyed playing d/d core with fresh air and berserker gear, ive been trying t3 and it seems quite okay, plus quickness share due to fresh air, the dagger offer good aura and combo play, however i dont know what to go for in skill selection. Has someone managed to pull off a build that is decent for fractal and just maybe raids? Prehaps even condi, I think it may be possible.

I think scrapper is pretty damn good in fractals, high dps specially with multiple mobs, might stack from hammer 1 increase up to 3 mobs, and nearly unkillable also with multiple mobs, with berserker stuff.

I think condi is the only way to go when it comes to end game content

Well, i think i may have found the problem, it wasnt just guild wars but just about everything, ive checked the pagefile settings and it was off on all drives somehow, i turned them back on and it looks fine now.
