If you want to use this in open world, you can make the following changes while keeping gear the same: 1. Camp longbow for range, the burst is still very strong! 2. Use signet of judgement isntead of bane signet, this trades 180 power for 10% less damage taken. 3. Use -10% damage taken + ferocity food (ascended is always better). 4. I like to use radiance instead of zeal for easier crit capping (since both fury and resolution will make you reach the cap that way) and renewing virtue 1 on kills. In open world this allows you re-use virtue 1 on each enemy! I also like to use hallowed ground with this for easy stability and resolution uptime and feel my wrath for fury + quickness.

Your videos are so crisp and the explanations so clear and short. I love this format!

been having a hard time playing guardian specs except firebrand so this really helps! thank you!

Thank you, Masel. The community appreciates this.

Hell yeah, good to see you did actually wind up doing a DH build.

Hope you never stop making those!

How does this build fare with the new rune / relic changes? Would you recommend using this over a simplified willbender or firebrand if such LI builds exist?

Just when I was thinking of playing some more Guardian to compliment my other half's Heal herald, mister Masel delivers yet again. Thank you for your service sir!

I have a question, I’ve seen some differing opinions, on what weapons to use. Is Forgoing the bow for a 1 hand sword and focus. Better?

Thanks for sharing. Apologies if this has been mentioned, but what sort of infusions do you recommend for armor and weapons?

So sword and shield is done for now from the update? Power

but doesnt that mean if ageis is gone we will lose damage? or are we not relying much on it?

Will this work for roaming/ zerging too?

Hello, how ur virtue 1 have such a long use And after virtues 1 u only hve 2 sec cooldown to use it again In newplayer on gw2 :D

Good timing. I was just thinking about switching from Radiance to Virtues. DH is such a beast of a dps build to bring to group content for the extra utility it can offer. It's also super fun to completely ignore Goreseval's CC phase and keep dpsing thanks to F3 and Litany 😆

100% recommend virtues. It does similar dps even without aegis and the added utility is so nice :)

How does 0% aegis uptimes virtues dh compare to 100% resolution uptime radiance dh?

Can i replace the Greatsword with Sword/Focus?

Sure you can. Less damage, but doable :)

I don't get it.. I'm trying so hard, full exotic and I'm doing like 25k dps on golem with snowcrow settings..

That sounds like a more severe problem than rotation. If you can record a log or a video I can try to find out what's wrong.

Rly nice video

I am just returning and am gearing up to go for a Dragonhunter as the Longbow there is a magic archer feel. So it may be stupid, is the gear used for this berserk? And do you think it could work with Longbow+ 2 Swords

Watch the beginning of the video again - it shows all the gear. Mostly zerk and a few assassin pieces mixed in.

So DH is back in business?

It's been for months tbh, but they changed a few animations so it feels more fluid now :)

I've been play testing this build for a couple of days and just want to report that it's quite smooth and very playable. A big improvement over the build I had been using.

rly you are able to upkeep aegis in fractals and strikes/raids? seems extremely unlikely.

Why eagle runes and not scholar?

It's thief runes. They make up for the loss in critical chance from not using radiance, combined with the accuracy sigil.
