Bless mate! Spear feels alright has some issues but its definitely in a better spot then most of the classes. Just might not be a weapon that speaks to me. Yeah www.youtube.com/@HobozertGaming is the ranger/necro i run with.
Dont take me wrong but those are not 1v1 (duels), just random fights. Some of them are even players on cd or you got distracted apparently, like guardian and ranger at camps or the necro hitting a gate. Aside from that, cool build and edit
i wonder if there are some ppl in wvw which at least read their skills or some meta builds. DH with torch was little to much for me and i had to stop watching.
@@Volie "condi focused DH" theres everything is wrong with that. DH isnt condi class? DH dont have single skill which apply condi dmg? i see that you are on the level on those players 🤣
@@IIIiiiDAWiiiIII Well its not the most optimal condi focused guardian spec but i don't control what other people use. F1 does apply burning and the DH trait line does apply a lot of cover conditions. Radiance/Virtues apply the majority of burning anyways. Its okay to not play the same meta builds that everyone else is playing. I mean look at my WB setup - nothing close to the meta lol.
@@Volie ye that 1 burning on every 3rd attack rly make all the difference. i guess his build was so good that he wasnt able to use F3, elite or anything and died in 3 sec.
@@Volie ye flash combo definitely seems to be way more useful that JI I probably should give it a proper look at. Spears are definitely gonna be interesting anyway haha spear on guard looks like it's gonna be kinda like warrior staff tbh hybrid support/offensive thing but ye will have to see and experiment 😎
@@gw2chief366 honestly I didn't miss the precast skills into a JI as much it was more the emergency stunbreak haha. Yeah I just need to feel the dmg numbers tomorrow. I do like the 2 dashes and a kncokback tho haha
Its such a fun weapon, plus the "Rektyu Punch" as i call it, hits like a truck haha. Its been alright just i'm finding a ton of dead maps and people are really grouping up a lot more so solo roaming feels even rougher. Dude i know i think its gonna be sweet - worst case we get our loot stick back lol
So Main hand pistol 100% it gives good range and the #2 and #3 skill are really great for burning application. Offhand pistol feels a lot worst the #4 skill is pretty good but the #5 skill is pretty garbage imho.
@@CruxJP so Pistol/Shield Axe/Torch would be okay but you lose the port from Sword. If your solo i think Sword is a must but solo firebrand in this timeline is really rough. I like Virtues for more burning tbh. I dont really play Firebrand nor Cele/Condi so im just kinda guessing haha
U make mace shield look fun but for the life of me I can't get it to work at all! Either way good stuff as per usual! Looking forward to the next upload 😺
Thanks! Mace is a lot of fun just takes a bit to have it click. Think of it more of a defensive/supporty weapon set while sitting in S/S for damage. Hopefully next video is sooner rather then later haha.
Great video as always and special thanks for includind 1 vs 1 lol. If you happen to have some leftovers i would love to see a few 1 vs 1 against thiefs since thats a match up i personaly hate!
@@Volie wow thats rly lucky imo. I am realy bad at dealing with stealth e.e, and for some reason i atract thiefs like i have pheromones for then or smt like that lmao
I've been waiting so long!!!!! Insane plays ♥. I've noticed that you don't include many 1v1s in your videos is there a reason? Would you show some in your next video? I want to see how to fight other classes in 1v1s - I'm still struggling with WB :(
Bless mate! I don't really find 1v1s too interesting to watch myself so I don't include them often, also certain gamers get their egos bruised real easy so it causes drama tbh. But I'll see if I can throw a few on the next video haha. You'll get there, any questions just hmu :)
so fucking clean with the movement and burst combos, ive tried wb but im not good enough lol does that reaper or the tempest you play with have a yt channel?
Aye cheers mate. It takes a bit to get used to but after that is crazy strong haha. The only person that makes videos anymore is www.youtube.com/@HobozertGaming. He's a Necro/Ranger player with some insane plays.
Nice montage! What's your favorite second weapon set on WB? Tried Hammer and LB but didn't like them both too much, I might give mace/shield or mace/focus a try.
@@Volie nice, definitely will give mace shield a try. Any thoughts on focus? I'm super new to guardian so I'm not sure about shield and focus's pros and cons (migrated from power herald, power wb is basically a straight upgrade).
@@_Idolin So focus is a solid weapon as well, I would say it's more focused on Dmg rather then shield being more of a utility piece, the #5 is 3 blocks that can help with kiting/stomping and #4 is good ranged poke and procs your virtues quite nicely. I just really like the options you have with Shield #5 and #4 hits decently hard as well.
Hey Vollie, how do you deal with those annoying deadeyes? I ran against a few good DE's and I can barely touch them before they nuke my hp... Movement here and there dodging F2/3 etc to survive their burst, yet they manage to slip and use Mercy for another burst and at that point I have nothing left
Heya, so DEs are a rough fight you should never really win if they play right. Between the stealth spam and the mobility they should be able to kite you around. Try to apply as much pressure as you can with your ports to force them to waste all their interaction and hope they make a mistake, landing a Sword 5 while they go into stealth still immobilizes them you can try to burst. Make sure you always dodge Death's Judgement (it also revels them so you can burst when they use it). Dont be afraid to abuse LoS if its an option force them to fight on your terms.
