Power Willbender Roaming Build

GW2. WvW Build. Power Willbender Roaming Build. Guardian World vs World 2023.


Last Update: Feb 2023


Overview

The Meditation Radiance Willbender is a guardian WvW Roaming build that focuses on assassinating enemies with high burst damage and immobilize while using mobility to find the right timing and to get out afterwards. While it can sustain decently, it must do so through disengaging and only trading with enemies when cooldowns are available. Aggression is necessary.

The high critical chance modifiers gained from resolution and fury allow the build to take the Dragon stats for high burst damage and enough vitality to stay in fights to get the bonuses of successive for the virtues.

The main burst consists of porting to gain resolution and either using sword 2 or a meditation to gain fury. Then using a virtue, most likely F1, will allow you to gain stacks of Tyrant’s Momentum for even more damage modifiers.

Burst Combos:

Basic Burst: Sword 2 > 5 > F1 > Swap > Greatsword 2

AoE Engagement: F3 + Judge’s Intervention > Whirling Light > Greatsword 5 > 4 > 5 Pull > 2

Full Combo: F2 > Sword 2 > 5 > 4 > F1 > Swap > Whirling Light > Greatsword 3 > 5 > 4 > 5 > 2

  1. Would you say this is a harder build to play then the celestial version ?

  2. I think switching the runes to superior rune of the pack is stronger for WvW, more damage and nice buffs when engaging into combat.. speed is niche and not really needed as you already have a lot of mobility from your skills.

  3. now could this build be used for opend world pve content i do plan on pvping but im running currently berserker’s and struggling to stay alive
