Condition Specter PvP Build

GW2. Condition Scepter/Pistol Specter PvP Build. Thief.


Last Update: December 2023



Duelist Variant


The Condition Specter is a Duelist thief build with the potential to heal allies, giving them Rot Wallow Venom which they can expend to deal damage. It uses the strong single target conditions from Scepter to pressure single targets in between moments where allies need support.

Basic Combos: F1 > Scepter 3333 > F2 > 23452 > Leave Shroud > 3333

Signet of Shadows can be used to cover your conditions when bursting a target with your team, making it harder to cleanse.

Survive using the Pistol 5 and using finishers in the combo smoke field with Shroud 2/3/5 to gain stealth. Swap to Sword and use the Sword 2 when trying to rotate around the map. Also use your Sword 2 in the middle of your Shadowfall animation to increase it’s range when you are ready to engage on a target.

  1. I really like being able to swoop in, heal a nearby ally, and then immediately shift to attack with this build. It is a very fun “snatch victory from the jaws of defeat” roamer, and I love it.

  2. Hi guys are you gonna update the build soon for this new patch june 27?
