No-greatsword willbender?

[Valisha.8650]

Hey there, i am looking for a power willbender build which does not involve greatsword. I simply hate the holding animation of that thing, were thinking about sword/sword + sword/focus, yet i am not quite sure. Thanks in advance~

I started off playing s/s + s/f in OW PvE. WB/radiance/virtues. It is… acceptable. But the damage is not good, especially in prolonged fights. It is awfully similar to condi WB in gameplay, so I stayed with that.

There's always hammer.  It's not particularly good, but it does give pulsing AoE protection to allies.

If we're talking PvE, I wouldn't play a power build without a GS right now. Condi WB with sw/t + sc is solid though.

And don't bother with hammer, staff, or mace for dps builds, that's just asking for trouble.

It is better to replace the sword/x than greatsword for a guardian power build. 
So no.

You can also do mace/sword for meme

 

I suggest not doing scepter I haven't played willy but all the willies I've come across in PvP are weak using scepter.
