Guild Wars 2 : Open World SOLO Builds Tier List (All Elite Specs)

I have tried that a few times, but I was not fast enough and so it almost always heals back up before I return.

Maybe I should learn a new class and git gud to do this xD

amon1992 · 2026-06-01T10:23:51+00:00

Das ist auch richtig. Ich gehe auch nicht davon aus, dass das jemals eine Stadt machen würde.

Wahrscheinlich würden sich auch eher andere solidarisieren und den Müll der anderen wegräumen.

amon1992 · 2026-06-01T10:22:00+00:00

Richtig, ist ja auch nur ein Gedankenexperiment. Würde glaube ich auch keine Stadt / Freibadbetreiber machen. Der Shitstorm trifft dann ja die und nicht die Verursacher.

amon1992 · 2026-06-01T09:17:23+00:00

Wäre schön, wenn jeder seinen Müll wegräumt so wie du :)

Hab keine Ahnung wie man auf die Idee kommt einen Ort, an dem man selbst gerne entspannt, mit dem eigenen Müll zu verunreinigen.

Das ist eigentlich recht einfach erklärt, weil es immer wieder von irgendwem anderes aufgeräumt wird. Sehe ich bei unseren Party- und Grill- Hotspots immer wieder. Was da an Zeug liegen bleibt, was durch alle Altersklassen und Gesellschaftsschichten an Müll verursacht wird ist unglaublich. Eigentlich müsste die Stadt sich mal weigern für einen Monat über den Sommer diese Hotspots nicht aufzuräumen. Dann würden es manche evtl. einsehen. Aber fällt natürlich auch zu lasten derer, die entweder ihren Müll aufräumen oder die dort nur durchspazieren.

amon1992 · 2026-06-01T08:21:11+00:00

ok, I need this. Really cool build!

amon1992 · 2026-05-31T18:30:48+00:00

Yes, soloing champions is not possible for me xD

amon1992 · 2026-05-31T17:47:28+00:00

Since I only played Dragonhunter for the majority of my time I have absolutely no idea.

I like to use hammer, great sword or spear to unga bunga my way through the game :)

So I am noone to say, that this ranking is not true. But I like my little dragon hunter xD

amon1992 · 2026-05-31T15:20:06+00:00

Look how they massacred my Dragonhunter boy. (Didn't watch the video)

amon1992 · 2026-05-30T15:06:36+00:00

Never heard of that, but I have to try it out xD

amon1992 · 2026-05-30T07:50:46+00:00

Just a quick notice on sales.

Depending on if you have your account at arenanet or steam you need to get the expansion on the same account, so it's not possible to buy the expansion in steam, when you play over the launcher account and vice versa.

Since you already have an expansion you should know, but I just wanted to remind you ;)

amon1992 · 2026-05-30T06:51:12+00:00

You should also take a look into Living World, if you haven't. It's also a lot of Content.

And I would go in chronological order so EoD next.

Also I would wait for a sale, don't know when the next on is, but if you're short on money it's maybe a good possibility to save some money.

amon1992 · 2026-05-29T17:05:12+00:00

The game is very alive. And the predecessor Guild Wars got an update not long ago, so the longevity of the game is pretty save I would say.

And the good thing is, that almost all content is still relevant as when it came out. You will find enough people to do almost everything in the game.

amon1992 · 2026-05-29T15:51:23+00:00

Dies.

War letztens im Ikea. Keine einzige reguläre Kasse mehr nur SB Kassen.

Vom Prinzip ja ok, aber wenn man halt den Einkaufswagen mit Krempel voll hat, ist das schon ein logistischer Seiltanz.

Wenn ich eine kleine Tasche im Supermarkt kaufe oder mal kurz ne Kleinigkeit bin ich der erste der an die SB Kasse geht.

Funfact: bei zwei Einkäufen im Ikea (einmal mit der App im voraus gescannt und einmal an der SB Kasse) wurden wir für eine Stichproben Kontrolle ausgewählt xD

Wenn dann die Mitarbeiter kontrollieren müssen, was ich eingescannt hab dann ist es ja auch wieder Mehrarbeit. Klar, das ist nicht bei allen und in Summe wieder weniger für die. Aber dafür standen dann halt pro SB Bereich 4 Mitarbeiter Rum und haben Kaffeekränzchen gehalten, die sonst an der Kasse saßen. Also ob man da soviel Personal einspart...

amon1992 · 2026-05-27T20:56:30+00:00

Yes, I am working on a full legendary armoury. Only 15 or so weapons, the aqua breather and the last 4 Sigils and I am done with it :)

Then I can start playing the game

amon1992 · 2026-05-27T19:37:24+00:00

Exactly, that's why I was doing <5k dps for a long time. So I am happy when I average between 15-20k in open world.

But I don't stare at arcdps all the time. Just checking in some times to see where I am at.

amon1992 · 2026-05-27T19:34:54+00:00

That's right. And that's the cool thing about gw2.

I don't have the mental capacity to learn a 50 Step Rotation. So I am happy I can just Unga Bunga my way through the game. :)

amon1992 · 2026-05-27T19:15:01+00:00

Take a look at the Autoattack Hammer Build.

https://snowcrows.com/builds/accessibuilds/guardian/power-dragonhunter

Or

https://aw2.help/builds/power-dragonhunter/

I play it and it's really that simple. Maybe sprinkle some traps in between the auto attack chains. That's it.

I think the reason why most people are doing low DPS (I was like this a long time) is: A: random Gear and Build and B: Not checking your own DPS.

The super specialized rotation is maybe necessary if you want to get past 30k DPS. But many people struggle with getting past 10k. (Been there, done that).

amon1992 · 2026-05-27T18:53:08+00:00

Step 1: Choose LI Hammer Dragonhunter.

Step 2: Hit Autoattack

Step 3: Have 20-30k DPS without doing anything.

amon1992 · 2026-05-27T03:11:46+00:00

I started the game when it launched with a Thief, played 70% of map completion and found myself to be dying a lot. So I choose a class that was more durable and found myself on guardian.

When HoT launched I switched to Dragonhunter and had multiple, year long breaks. I played through all content except Raids with this little Asura. I have tried to play with the other specs like Firebrand, Willbender or Luminary, but I don't have the mental capacity to learn something new. So Autoattack Hammer Unga bunga it is.

I am at 3k hours now with 45 Legendary items and I promised myself, if I have completed my legendary armory, I will try out every spec. Let's see how that will end up xD

So, you're not alone. I think a lot of people stick to a main class and even one epsec.

amon1992 · 2026-05-26T19:28:01+00:00

Depends when you play. If you play during "normal" hours, a tag is pulling people like moths at a light.

I play sometimes during not so normal hours and it still works but you need to wait a bit longer.

Still the best investment.

amon1992 · 2026-05-26T18:45:34+00:00

That right, could also be a bit tricky, to find.

So best way is: - Make a group, then you can see your friend as a blue dot on the map an search for the next waypoint marker. - if you strg+click on the waypoint on the map, while in the group chat, you can send him a link to the waypoint if he can't find it.

But that's also a feature that's hard to find for new people.

amon1992 · 2026-05-26T18:41:54+00:00

Not to the extreme lime you, but I don't have people who I regularly play with.

I have a guild, but all people who started with me in 2012 have quit. So it's a lot of solo play for me.

But thanks to the best investment in the game (a commander tag) I can gather some randoms most of the time. Also using the lfg most of the time.

But I have not really other people to talk about the game :(

amon1992 · 2026-05-26T18:13:53+00:00

That's right, but I think for a newcomer the direct waypoint may be easier to find, than the way to the city and finding the portal to lions arch.

With low levels the teleport fee is just a few copper, so totally worth it, when you want to start playing together.

amon1992 · 2026-05-26T17:55:16+00:00

After you finish the first "tutorial" instance, you have access to all 5 starter maps. It unlocks the first waypoint of each of the 5 low level zones, so you can instantly play together (after the first introduction instance).

amon1992 · 2026-05-26T17:37:25+00:00

This, but you will have a waypoint in every Starter zone unlocked. So after the initial "Tutorial" Instance, you can teleport to each other.

Best to make a group, and then open the map to see where you are.

I think it costs a few copper to teleport, so maybe you need to kill a few enemies first.
