This is a list of various viable and fun roaming builds for WvW. While roaming you may experience many situations within a short time. Some builds will work better in one situation but not in others such as larger or smaller fights against certain matchups.
- Roaming Builds = Small Scale 1 to 10
- For Large Scale Builds check here: The Best WvW Zerg Builds
There are also three main roles that roamers can provide:
- Assassin –
– Mobile burst damage to secure kills, but lacks sustain - Bruiser –
– Survives outnumbered with sustained damage, but is slow - Medic –
– Provides healing, buffs, and CC, but struggles when alone
Remember! There’s no “meta” for roaming, use these builds as a starting point and adapt to your playstyle!
