Dawdler.8521 Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 Haha I expected a condi trapper but thats pretty neat. I find it amazing people seem stumped trying to fight you. As a mostly mirage roamer... that mirage 1v1 is complete embarassment. And that was before I even looked at the rank, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeceiverX.8361 Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 This is effectively what I do when I want to 1v30 enemy blobs to force cooldowns before the main tag steamrolls them. Dire/TB has obscene durability and double shortbow provides a lot of mobility and AoE pressure with a surprising amount of damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd highly recommend it! https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Legendary_armor Check out the link and feel free to ask if you have any questions about how to get it. You'll get all the components you need just by playing the game over time, and the convenience is super nice :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The armor is generally only a small gain in armor rating and stats, however the weapons offer an upwards of 10% damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babazhook.6805 Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 How big a deal is taking BT over Pressure strike? I have been able to layer on significant Torment stacks via pressure strike and those interrupts when in SB on my own condition build. If in torment runes this can get some nice heals as well albeit I think Thorns might be a beter bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally like BT better because I've become used to the flow of having the vigor it gives. I haven't given the new torment runes a try with pressure strike though, so maybe the extra sustain it brings would push it over the edge. Something I'd definitely be interested in playing around with :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zhaid Zhem.6508 Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 I have stolen your build for fun. A bit long against some war, holos or weaver with 36 stab or condicleanse every 0.5sec and work mostly on greedy* people; UC is definitely better than lotus training. This is so impressive how OP Chocking Gas (+weakness /trait or #4+#2) is against Mirage, i've never killed mirages so easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zhaid Zhem.6508 Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Yeah I tried, but there is a ~4sec ICD that I don't really like. I prefer the vigor, + the boonsteal against guards, soulbeast or even reaper in shroud etc feels so good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jugglemonkey.8741 Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 I've played something similar for a long time, currently with trailblazer, P/D offhand and trapper runes. Choking gas builds are easily the ones that generate the most salty whispers because people don't know how to fight it xD With the 3s immobs from shortbow sneak attack (plus just baiting people into traps lol) it opens up a lot more ways to spike with choking gas as well as adds cover condis in bleeds and vulnerability, which makes the build more flexible. For instance, shortbow sneak attack to immob, choking gas, precast heal, steal to enemy, weapon swap to P/D for geomancy and doom proc (this also lays the on heal trap at their feet), shadow strike out. You look like you're having fun tho, so carry on annoying people haha :) p.s; I find pressure striking such a good trait, and new absorption sigil on shortbow will let you take down tougher enemies like boonbeast. Just a thought :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a thought :) Absorption sigil sounds fun too! I'll be testing some things with P/D once the queues start to die down, but I definitely love my choking gas ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
