Sword & Shield / Rapier PvP Build - Season 1

A nasty, light armor, backstabbing assassin build with great mobility. This build does a great job hunting down targets and stunning / staggering them to death.

Hope you enjoy the build!


 

Great Axe / Sword & Shield Heavy Brawler By

Nyce Gaming - Season 1

A durable brawler that has the one thing heavy struggles with, mobility. This is the perfect build for anyone who wants to dive right into the middle of a fight.

Having two gap closers, multiple hastes, and a Great Axe make this build surprisingly fast and good at hunting down a fleeing target. This build also has an incredibly good block mixed with tons of damage reduction, healing and fortify. In short, it can tank, and then spank.

A huge shoutout to Nyce Gaming for sharing this build with us all! You can check out his YouTube channel here https://www.youtube.com/@Nyce-Gaming


 

Sword & Shield / Throwing Hatchet PvP Build - Brimstone Sands

A well rounded light armor build that uses a throwing Hatchet setup. This build is fast, hits very hard, has great healing power, and tons of good counters / utility abilities that make it great for surviving in PvP.

The throwing Hatchet can deal a lot of damage, while being able to apply snares, roots, and rends easily. Aiming a throwing Hatchet can be tough however and will require some practice to be really effective. With a bit of patience, you can learn to deal nasty ranged combos while being able to quickly close the gap for huge damage combos with the Sword & Shield.

I hope you guys enjoy this build, it has made me fall in love with throwing Hatchet as a ranged weapon!


 

Sword And Shield / Rapier PvP Build - Medleyfaire

A super aggressive melee build with excellent mobility. This build can quickly hunt down an opponent and deliver nasty backstab damage while also boasting a powerful defensive kit that’s excellent for brawling. This build has a super high critical rate and is packed with tons of healing power, giving it good overall durability with great burst healing power for those rough moments!

The combo of Sword & Shied with Rapier gives this build access to two gap closers and tons of stuns / staggers. I found this build did excellent in all forms of PvP, from 1v1 to 1vX and even running in the thick of the pack in a group fight! I loved how aggressive this build felt to play and really enjoyed the kill potential when hunting healers, so I hope you guys like it!!
