DPS Hammer Spellbreaker Build Guide for PvE

[@thehunattila1]

I’ll definitely give it a shot. I’ve always had a soft spot for mace offhand since playing vanilla warrior in dungeons. Thanks for the build update, Nike.

[@EarlyNai]

always appreciate the slow motion rotation breakdown

[@Farwind]

I'll miss my brief time roleplaying a paragon, but man do I love hammer spellbreaker.

[@kjo5280]

Will try this build over weekend. Thanks

[@gabrielpelegrini6135]

When did mace 5 start refreshing the cooldown of 4? I've been using axe since forever

[@NikeonaBike]

this patch

[@SierraMike8633]

Thanks. I could use the ;lemonade for sure.

[@becople1491]

would you run force/impact sigils on both weapon sets for pugging fractals?

[@NikeonaBike]

yeah, for fractals impact is way good

[@yriel1]

i love salad

[@foxxsenpai]

what's that Fashion tab add-on? came back to gw2 recently and the new plug-ins are legit giving me a headache.

[@NikeonaBike]

A plugin to share your fashion with other players easily.

I'm sorry if I missed it; but what are the numbers for this one? How much are we benching?

[@JtomTheInfallible]

4mil golem starts at 10:52 and ends at 12:25, so around 93s 4mil/93s = 43k - 300 for console condis = bout 42.7k dps (+/- a few hundred depending on exact duration)

[@NikeonaBike]

​@@JtomTheInfallibledont worry about the exact numbers. I play on EU at 175 ping and I'm not one of the great benchmark guys. I expect SC to have a much better number. The build has a good opening burst for a warrior build without tactics so it will be quite good.

[@nickverschoore4351]

im benching max 100kg 3 reps right now

[@elocfreidon]

Good. I've been playing Spellbreaker this way for a while. Mixing it up with swapping the elite or Bulls Rush for other skills.

[@nickrandazzo5249]

I don't have a single iota of interest in pve but I am a warrior main and I'm drawn to your build videos because of your love and mastery of the class. I just want you to know that your build videos are literally the only pve content I watch

[@NikeonaBike]

@@nickrandazzo5249 thats super nice of you to say

[@ricardoserato]

is this build good for open world, doing missions etc?

[@NikeonaBike]

its fine, but not particularly good since it doesnt self-generate offensive boons. at meta events where you get boons from others its great but just roaming solo its not the best there is.

[@schwaahly]

Ill have to give this a try been main spellbreaker hammer ax dagger for long time I love it

[@NikeonaBike]

@@schwaahly mace feels great

[@chopthatpanda]

W shit ong

[@otsuka3010]

This video is very timely, I've been really enjoying Spellbreaker. I have a dagger/mace and hammer with Force + Impact sigils, would that be bad for this build?

[@NikeonaBike]

Impact sigil is OK, you will only lose a small amount of damage compared to the sigils i recommend. But if you also play this in fractals, Impact will be a bit better.

[@Curtislz]

i really wanna try this but i need a lot more hero points to even use spellbreaker lol

[@NikeDnT]

join a hero point train EZ

[@thewhitecrow_9854]

Hello i tried this build and got rn with all boons and the bot with all debuffs 27,2k dps constantly. I didnt use any food or utility skills rn or got any ascended gear. I like how easy the rotations is and how simple it is, even tho i fucked it up more than 1 time in that 27k try. I dont know how much dps it should do imma guess 35k dps but i could be wrong. Anyways thank you for charing this build and can anyone tell me a good food for replacing the ascended food shown in the video, that i could craft without chef training achievment or buy from the tradepost? To everyone who read thru this message have a nice day and take care :D

[@NikeonaBike]

Optimal dps with full min max will be 42 to 43k i believe

[@thewhitecrow_9854]

@@NikeonaBike dayum I’m shit xD

[@thewhitecrow_9854]

I mean it was my second attempt with spellbreaker maybe time will tell

[@NikeonaBike]

​@@thewhitecrow_9854 practice makes perfect. If you get min max gear, etc and put in time you can get there.

[@thewhitecrow_9854]

@@NikeonaBike imma do that :D thank you for doing this quick video after the patch and have a nice day :).

[@melovebeef]

I'll try this, ranged combat is for cowards

[@NikeonaBike]

i like the cut of your gib
