Arrion.2185 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 So, I have been out of the game for a few years, due to, you guessed it. REAL LIFE. Now I have things sorted (I hope) and I'm looking to make a return, with the Path of Fire expansion, and was curious if there are any viable PvP/PvE One hander-Shield/Dual Wield builds. I would love to see what there is, if anything passably viable. I also want to point out, I'm not looking for top tier, just something that can let me carry my own weight Solo/PvP/Dungeons.

Knighthonor.4061 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Need shield and dual wield specifically? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LucianTheAngelic.7054 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 A lot of Condi Herald builds run Mace/Axe, Sword/Shield, but it doesn't have dual wield. It's probably the best build outside of Heal Herald that runs shield since Power Herald need offhand sword. (this is for pvp/wvw, mind you). You could modify it to Sword/Sword, Mace/Shield, but I think that would be less effective overall For Fractals and Raids, Power Renegade is meta and it dual wields swords.

It takes a trait for swords, but uses mace axe for DW, and a Short Bow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It takes a trait for swords, but uses mace axe for DW, and a Short Bow. Because it triggers off of Crits as well as Sword attacks. So your crits will proc that for 9% damage increase when full stack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knighthonor.4061 Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 I personally run Power Renegade, using Dual Sword and Bow, Renegade, and secondary Legend is optional for me for the role. Mostly play Demon though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arrion.2185 Posted August 30, 2019 Author Share Posted August 30, 2019 So, would y'all say that build I linked is good to use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The build you linked is the meta condi build. Yes, it's great to use. Build is a little outdated though, refer to this instead: https://snowcrows.com/raids/builds/revenant/renegade/condition/ There are some adjustments you can make to make it better for Open World and solo play as well, for example, using Incensed Response (in invocation) and Vindication (in Renegade) to make sure you have 25 stacks of might when running solo.
