Guild Wars 2 continues the tradition of video games giving some of the most powerful moves to warriors. They use heavy armor, possess incredible strength, and in this case, they even have the speed to back up all of their brute force. If you want to build a great warrior with the abilities given to you in GW2, choose the appropriate situation below. We’ll even sort out PvP for you.
PvP
We’ll jump into Conquest because we just mentioned it. A sword or warhorn will be your main weapon, and you’ll keep a dagger/shield combination as a backup. Follow the chart below to set up your bar, depending on which weapons you’re keeping in hand:
To round out your list, choose To the Limit! for your heal, Shake It Off!, On My Mark!, and For Great Justice! as your utility skills, and Battle Standard as your Elite move. Put up your specializations as demonstrated below:
WvW
The build below will keep you powered and capable of supporting the rest of your group. Your primary weapon should be a sword or warhorn, with a hammer as a backup. Your abilities are very similar to PvP, with a few exceptions:
Use the same To the Limit! skill for healing, along with Shake It Off! for one of your utilities. You’ll also want For Great Justice! and Break Enchantments, and finally, Winds of Disenchantment for your elite skill. Your specializations are listed below:
PvE
When you’re doing quests in the open world, you don’t have to worry about others as much. This gives you the chance to make a build that focuses on pure strength, so use a greatsword as your primary weapon, and a two-dagger setup as your secondary. You can use the attacks seen here:
Become your own tank by healing with Defiant Stance, and set up For Great Justice!, Shake It Off!, and Signet of Fury as your utilities. Round it out with the Signet of Rage as your elite skill, and take advantage of the specializations shown below:
