So here is what I am thinking with this build.

Attack
2450
Crit. chance
70%
Armor
2127
Health
24662

I have great crit, decent power and a pretty decent health pool.


I have been toying with the idea that a pure ranged warrior could be a pretty fun build.  Rifle is the main weapon, it offers great 1v1 control and damage. If you can land the burst it can take half of a squishy's health. Longbow is there to provide great AOE, and additional burning conditions. Since this build is centrered around crit/condition I feel these compliment each other well. You are also focused on shouts. Your shouts heal, and grant adrenaline in addition to their normal function.


 I would have liked to squeeze in additional crit damage as well, but i feel that'd be stretching my gear a bit. I intend to test this out in spvp, will let everyone know the results when I get the chance. I am hoping that this will also prove useful in dungeons (aoe from bow, single target dps from rifle, utility from shouts) and WVW (again, longbow AOE + ability to pick off wounded folks with the rifle)


This build also provides great adrenaline generation. The rifle burst skill is very, very strong but also very obvious, and the longbow burst skill is great for comboing with its other aoe abilities. The heal choice is also centered on adrenaline level.  With for great justice, and the ult signet, you will have fury/might up often, which bumps the crit up to 90% I am pretty confident that this will prove to be a solid, multi-faceted build.



Any thoughts on this?

After testing this build in spvp ive made some changes. http://gw2skills.net/editor/en/?fIIQJAUTjgO1uNPWPMxBE0DrIL2izDqIAJvUhzA;ToAg0CnowxgjAHLOOck4sIYQA The extra condition damage and the focus on shouts wasn't really doing much for the spec at all, so I swapped in some toughness, and a bit of extra crit damage from berserkers. With the build above I did great in the spvp pugs I played. The bow had pretty unexpectedly high aoe burst, and the rifle was very solid for both close and long ranged fights. Despite the fact that this will make my chars weaponsmithing useless to him I may be sticking with this build at the end game. I am still learning how to play the spec, but I think it has good potential.

I think Last Stand is broken - unless they fixed it in the last patch it was not activating balanced stance... I will check this out - I have been playing with builds in sPVP as well as my warrior is close to 80 now.
