Any somewhat viable pvp d/d or s/d builds?

[SlitheSlivier.1908]

As above... are there any viable s/d or d/d builds for pvp since the nerf? Im coming back after a hiatus and hoping to play these more than the staff that ive been using but don't know where to start.

For S/D in PvP and WvW, sure: Deadly Arts, Trickery and Daredevil (Acro got kinda gutted, but still works to some extent).

D/D, in PvP you could run some Condi build, works decent enough though not as good as D/P or S/D.

In WvW (and to some extent PvP) you could get away with a Deadly Arts, Shadow Arts, Trickery setup but you got to get your Shortbow game up to a high standard.

 

Are they meta? I prefer S/D over D/P in some matchups in PvP, generally D/P simply beats D/D out of the water but that's nothing new.

Are you talking power generally, except when you mentioned dd condi?

You can try with metabattle builds, and if you don't like them you can also make some changes.

Hey, didn't check forums for a bit, but yes. I mean power unless stated otherwise :)
