[24] Guild Wars 2 Builds - Warrior: Dual Sword & Dual Axe "Raging Dual-ist" Signet Build |PVE

By: Soul Step (Updated 7/10/2012)



Day 2 of the Signet build challenge. Today, I bring you my Warrior Signet build. This build uses dual weapons and has focus in Critical attacks.

Weapon Set:
Primary: Dual Sword - your melee single target set.
Secondary: Dual Axe - your melee AOE set.

Healing, Utility, Elite Skills:
Healing:
(6) Healing Signet

Utility:
(7) Signet of Might - passive improves your damage

(8) Signet of Fury - passive increases your critical chance

(9) Signet Stamina - survival skill

Elite:
(0) Signet of Rage

Traits: Build output is 10/30/0/0/30. Heavy concentration  getting high Critical chance and damage and making your burst skill more effective.
Strength:
(V) Berserker's Power - used for extra damage while building your adrenaline.

Arms:
(I) Deep Strike - your, "Oh yeah, get Crit!" trait. If you're not using all 5 of your signets, that's +200 Precision right there. Add that to the 300 from maximizing the Arms trait line and you'll get a whopping 500 Precision.

(VIII) Blademaster - since your main weapons are swords, this is a must for extra critical-hit chance.

(XII) Last Chance - a finish the kill trait. Cool down is kind of long but when it's used, it just feels too good to pass up.

Discipline: I decided to maximize this line for the extra critical and burst damage. It also encourages you weapon swap between your dual sword and axes often.

(III) Warrior's Sprint - I just like having a passive which will make you faster. It's a good gap closer or make kiting/escaping easier.

(VII) Signet Mastery - must have for a signet build

(XII) Adrenal Reserves - reduces the adrenaline required to use a burst skill, so you can use them more often and make it easier to build it to the max.

This is a pure offense/glass cannon type build. I guarantee you'll hit hard with high critical-chance and damage despite only having 100 in Power. Survivability will be pretty low in high number enemy fights. One-on-one though, you'll be a force to be reckoned with.

[22] Guild Wars 2 Builds - Ranger: Greatsword & Dual Axe "Signet" Build |PVE

By: Soul Step (Updated 7/9/2012)


(View Build)

I like the Ranger profession because you're not restricted to only using bows. Along with Signets, this build will use the Greatsword and Dual Axes as weapons

Weapon Set:
Primary: Greatsword
Secondary: Dual Axes

Healing, Utility, Elite Skills:
Healing:
(6) Healing Spring - regenerate health and remove conditions. The removing of conditions works well with Signet of the Beastmast trait.

Utility:
(7) Signet of Renewal - great survival skill to have

(8) Signet of the Hunt - another great survival skill with its passive and a nice damage boost to your pet on the active.

(9) Signet of the Wild - for the passive, provides another means of healing. The active makes your pet more useful.

Elite:
(0) Rampage As One - A good steroid boost for you and your pet.

Traits: Build output is 30/15/0/25/0. It's not often where I'll put points into trait lines up to a minor trait, but this output will maximize your damage.
Marksmanship:
(IV) Signet Mastery - a must have for signet builds to recharge them faster.


(IX) Beastmaster's Might - a damage booster when using a signet.


(XI) Signet of the Beastmaster - Gaining the active effect from the signet is a huge plus.


Skirmishing:
(V) Companions's Might - great trait for your pet to have.


Minor Trait:
(15) Furious Grip - gain a boon for weapon swapping is great. Use your axe skills at mid range then weapon swap into greatsword for the kill.


Nature Magic:
(V) Strength of Spirit - With 25 points in Nature Magic, you'll gain 25 extra points in power.


(IX) Two-handed Training - Increase your greatsword damage.


Minor Trait:
(25) Bountiful Hunter - Another damage boost, which works well with the Furious Grip and Beastmaster's Might traits.


With this build you and your pet will be able to a lot damage as the Signet skills provide you survivability.
