Myror.7521 Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 (edited) Here we Go again! Fellow warriors and whats up. It's time again for some theory crafting (Just in Case of PvP Focus) for Warriors. What Builds are actually good in Meta and/or in my eyes. But also what could we Change to improve Warrior even more. !!!Time to Shine!!! Okay enough said....... here we go First of all PvP Builds Spellbraker - Greatsword/Dagger,Shield (Power) *META* (Defence/Disciplin/Spellbraker) -Longbow/Dagger,Shield (Power) (Defence/Disciplin/Spellbraker) -Longbow/Dagger,Sword (Condi) (Defence/Disciplin/Spellbraker) -Greatsword/Hammer (Power) (Defence/Disciplin/Spellbraker) -Greatsword/Dagger, Shield (Power) (Strength/Disciplin/Spellbraker) -Greatsword/Sword,Dagger (Power) (Strength/Disciplin/Spellbraker) -Hammer/Dagger,Shield (Power) (Defence/Disciplin/Spellbraker) -Greatsword/Sword,Shield (Power) (Strength/Disciplin/Spellbraker) Bladesworn -Axe,Pistol (Power) (Strength/Tactics/Bladesworn) -Axe,Pistol (Power) (Defence/Tactics/Bladesworn) -Axe/Warhorn (Strength/Tactics/Bladesworn) Berserker -Greatsword/Rifle (Power) (Strength/Arms/Berserker) -Greatsword/Rifle (Power) (Arms/Disciplin/Berserker) -Sword,Torch/Mace,Sword (Condi) (Defence/Disciplin/Berserker) -Greatsword/Mace,Shield (Power) (Defence/Disciplin/Berserker) -Hammer/Mace,Shield (Power) (Defence/Disciplin/Berserker) Core -Greatsword/Axe,Shield (Power) (Strength/Disciplin/Defence) -Greatsword/Axe,Shield (Power) (Strength/Disciplin/Tactics) -Greatsword/Hammer (Power) (Strength/Disciplin/Defence) -Longbow/Sword,Warhorn (Condi/Supp) (Defence/Disciplin/Tactics) OpenWorld Builds (The Best) Spellbraker -Axe,Axe/Dagger,Dagger (Power) (Strength/Defence/Spellbraker) Berserker -Longbow/Sword,Torch (Condi) (Arms/Defence/Berserker) Bladesworn -Axe,Pistol (Power) (Strength/Tactics/Bladesworn) Raids/Strikes/Dungeons/Fractals Spellbraker -Greatsword/Dagger,Axe (Power) *META* (Strength/Tactics/Spellbraker) -Hammer/Dagger,Axe (Power) *META* (Defence/Strength/Spellbraker) Berserker -Longbow/Sword,Torch (Condi) *META* (Arms/Disciplin/Berserker) -Longbow/Sword,Torch (Condi/Qick) (Arms/Disciplin/Berserker) -Greatsword/Axe,Axe (Power) (Strength/Disciplin/Berserker) Bladesworn -Axe,Pistol (Power) *META* (Strength/Tactics/Bladesworn) How to Balance Warrior out (of course my ideas Here but I am open for more) Spellbraker This e-Spec overall seems to be in a solit spot right now. How ever I am still in case..... there should be less unblockables in this game and gues what Full Counter is actually unblockable. My idea for this would be: make this Skill blockable but let it hit some damage instead. This will punish fullcounter a bit but also make it overall healthier for the Game (dmg should now be something Like 1.0 modifire) Bladesworn This e-Spec is overall good .... how ever it does indeed need some help to self defence path while Casting the Dragontriggerburst. In this case letz remove the aegis from triggerguard and let it gain 1 stability for 4 Seconds instead. (Short its CD so you could use it everytime you go in DT burst Mode). It now is Not an ammo Skill anymore. (This would make the Defence path active gameplay and still punishable) Berserker Slightly dmg buffs to Decapitate and Arc Divider in PvE only Just to make it compatible with Spellbraker and Bladesworn (a Benchmark of 38k would be enough). Also some buffs to Overall condi weapons to let it Bench Up to Overall near Same amound of DPS would be decent. For PvP make the new Eternal Champion path of Enter and go Off Berserker Mode a Baseline Thing would Help Like alot. How ever if Savage Instinct would be too mutch ..... Nerf it to 1 Second duration. EDIT: Big thx to Lord Hizen and Snowcrows to gain us some decent PvE Builds! Edited March 8, 2023 by Pati.2438 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote Bladesworn This e-Spec is overall good .... how ever it does indeed need some help to self defence path while Casting the Dragontriggerburst. In this case letz remove the aegis from triggerguard and let it gain 1 stability for 4 Seconds instead. It now is Not an ammo Skill anymore. (This would make the Defence path active gameplay and still punishable) Putting stab on trigger guard would be fine, but BS needs more than one stack every 60s (which is what you're proposing with removing ammo from it). Seriously, DT is BS's core mechanic, and it's already saddled with the need to generate flow, then convert it into charges, THEN land a telegraphed attack. Hell, as @Infusion.7149 is fond of pointing out, it doesn't even do that much damage, especially at low charges. It's just not gonna work if the tiniest daze can knock you out of it and put the whole thing on full CD. A better option is to put short stability (1.5-2s) back on Dragonscale Defense (every 8s) so that you can cover at least a partial charge of DT.

Infusion.7149 Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 Haha you mentioned me! Of course I was a strong proponent for Bladesworn charges on Dragon Trigger making sense since its inception. Instead of fixing the issue Arenanet decided to slap some might on Unyieldiing Dragon DT which means the other two variants are severely left behind. I have always been a fan of spellbreaker, the fact that hammer is usable again is a plus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myror.7521 Posted March 8, 2023 Author Share Posted March 8, 2023 (edited) @CalmTheStorm.2364 true fair Point tho i would of course shorten Trigger guard to be usable everytime you go into DT burst Mode. I was not looking on its CD but in my head it was making sence ..... but of course the CD is actually too high with 60 seconds Edited March 8, 2023 by Pati.2438 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
