Power DPS Vindicator Build

GW2. Raid Build. Power DPS Vindicator. Vindicator. Revenant PvE.


Last Update: September 2023


Overview

The Power Vindicator is a DPS build with an aggressive playstyle that uses its dodges for damage, but when timed well can increase DPS uptime by dealing damage while avoiding mechanics that would otherwise halt their damage. It also has the option to protect itself and support allies with condition cleanse by swapping to the Kurzick stance.

Playstyle

Role: DPS

Swap Legends when out of energy and swap weapons when out of weapon cooldowns. To upkeep the damage bonuses, prevent your endurance bar from maxing out by dodging in between cooldowns or to avoid specific mechanics. The Spear of Archemorus, Greatsword 5 and Sword 5 hit the hardest so prioritize them first and fill in the gaps with other weapon skills or stance skills. Greatsword 4 can even do huge damage if you use it to block multiple attacks and then use the counterattack.

Greatsword: 2/3/5

Sword/Sword: 2/4/5

Luxon Stance: Spear of Archemorus/Nomad’s Advance

Shiro Stance: Impossible Odds

If needed to survive, swap F3 to Kurzick stance and use Battle Dance to evade, pop the Urn of Saint Victor to mitigate damage quickly before swapping, and use the Greatsword 4 to block and Sword 3 to evade.
