Character Builds

[ThePolarTitan.4025]

Hey everyone! I wanted to create a post to get some discussion that could help players! So I wanted to ask this.

 

What builds are ideal for the game based on class types/roles.

 

- I want people to see builds for characters so that we can have people understand better class types for things such as raids, dungeons, and fractals. I am curious myself because I study builds for just two of the classes I play as and I want to see what some other types are that people use. Lets go people! POSITIVITY! :D

Qt quit the game some time ago, their builds aren't exactly up to date.

Fractal builds

Kind of a weird topic. Most of the forums here are dedicated to people discussing builds for various things. There is a LOOOOT of info to sort through if you want something other than the meta builds that have already been showered upon you.

 

If you're not familiar with them, go check out the [profession forums](https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/categories/professions "profession forums").

If you want meta builds, the other people who have responded have those covered. If you want non-meta builds, let me know and I'll give you some of mine.

So, I don't think I explained things correctly. I wanted to get a discussion over builds. Not just what builds to do, but an ACTUAL explanation of why some people like certain builds over others, why some work, why some don't. Just a general discussion. Anyone can look builds up of course, but very few can actually tell what they like and some tricks they use to make their build a great one.

That's really what the forums are for. There isn't one thread discussing this, there are _thousands_. Check out the profession forums and take a look at what people are talking about.

OP is too generalized. Profession's forum discussions have specifics to work on(eg. Why X trait/build for Y class. Thus players are merely giving feedback on the matter).

 

Most of the links given includes explanation such as why X trait is taken, when Y skill is viable, or Z should be replaced, when and why. Feedbacks (although not many) from players experience using the trait etc. How players treat the info; learn, refer or innovate after understanding or debate on accuracy, effectiveness etc varies.

 

That said, maybe if you can specify what you're looking for or to achieve? *A customer walking into a computer shop looking for a right computer. It helps if the customer can provide some details such as budget, expectations etc*
