Best Hammer Build in WvW Zerg Fights

[Matsumori Oukanishi.8794]

My favorite game mode is WvW in a zerg, and I am getting close to finishing Juggernaut Legendary. I want to use my shinny new toy for a long time so I was wondering, between Warrior Spellbreaker, and Backline Hammer Rev, which of the two is in a better place in WvW Zergs? I wish Guardian could use it well, but lets face it... its the worst weapon for them in all game modes. I dont play much Engi, but right now Mechanist with Rifle is just to fun to get away from. So that leaves me with my Warrior and Rev, If yall wanted to primarily work with Hammer, which of the two wins?

The trading post wins....

Or rev...

best hammer users are berserker, rev, scrapper, and untamed. all those builds do something different so there isn't a single best.

Power Scrapper hammer Engi, is pretty solid and bring a lot of group support when set for condi cleanse/conversion and with their self barrier and group barrier see a number of shoutouts from zergs for them. Run a version for Havoc and solo and its quick to get invites when you cross the path of zergs. So wouldn't rule them out personally.

I love Hammer Healbreaker. I dont do massive damage but I live enough to sometimes rescue squirreling teammates and chase down random clouds since I'm very CC focused. 

Hammer herald is alright and probably has more effectiveness interms of team play but not as engaging and feels slow. Youl definately die a lot less though.

For Zerg play. Its either Power Rev (phase smash on engage when called for) then DPS with COR and vengful hammers and all other skills you got.. OR Spell breaker stripper (bubble) Use nullification runes to remove boons from foes you hit. Good luck and see you out there.
