Harvesting Builds

[knite.1542]

Please share your open world harvesting builds if you have a good one. Any class would be appreciated.

 

Here is my thief build.

Mostly meant for winterberries but I use it for other nodes as well.

I realise this is a slightly necro thread, but I thought I'd share my flamethrower harvesting build:

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?PeQAQlFwqYWsO2JW+SdtfA-zRRYnJFM4gLjEKgISA5XldD-e

 

Features:

- just a hair short of permanent quickness for double harvesting speed

- maintainable swiftness with Elixirs B & H

- +25% movement speed for when you're not paying attention to swiftness

- 15s of stealth when you need it with Sneak Gyro

- OK damage thanks to permanent 25 Might & Quickness using Flamethrower

- solid survivability with permanent Stability and 20k health

- relatively cheap gear (crafted armor/weapon, cheap runes/sigils, cheap food)

 

Usage:

- Set Elixir U to auto-cast

- Equip flamethrower

- Use Elixir H/B when you need swiftness

- Use F1 on recharge for 7s of Superspeed every 20s

- Use F3 for a short Superspeed & Stunbreaker

- Attack things with skill 1 if you need to

 

Alternative Version:

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?PeQAQlFwqYWsO2JW+SdtfA-zRRYnB5ArUwQxlRCFQvJg8XAAA-e

uses no food & can craft armor cheaper (Diviner's Mist Shard Armor), but drops health to 17.5k

is a game-changer for the winterberry farm, by the way, if it wasn't already obvious.
