Anyone have a good crit based GF build?

feelthebeat0922

I've been going through a lot of different PVP builds for multiple classes before I start playing. I've decided to play a GF because from how it sounds, if played right, they can own face in PVP and still be great in PvE. However most of the PVP builds I've come across for GF don't strike me as winning builds. I have heard mention of crit builds that sound amazing but haven't been able to find a single one on google or the forums.
Anyone using one they wouldn't mind sharing? Or happen to have a link to one off hand?

Also Note i'm using this set up right now with rank 8-9 savages 2 Greater Tene' and Perfect Vorp, Perfect Thunderhead, and the Glacier jewelery set + Frostpelt Girdle for more tankiness and Regen. (+ ancient weapon and shield.) You don't lose that much damage but you make up alt of tankiness with lifesteal, regen and higher deflection.

Tene's will not stack from 22nd so its not a good investment

The critical/rate GF is really the best pvp build from all classes.I play one and im happy to say i hardly get owned 1v1 or 2v1 even 3v1 i manage to take down one. My crit with timeless stack is 2700 which brings me to 25% chance. Cooldowns are 6/10/12 which doesnt let you lose stacks.You cant go wrong with this build but i suggest to put all on critical and forget about being a tank becouse you have 5k+ more hp then other classes,more overall dmg resistance then other classes and a Shift key.So all offence slots on azure. P or G fire and a P or G vorpal on the lizzardfolk,rings on azure/savage and your the man

Google envy's guardian fighter build. Its based on DPS and crit. Its made for pvp but it is also compatible with DD and PvE.

That's a pretty significant change. Not intending to be adversarial but what/where is your source?

granville7482

If tene's no longer stack that's great.

They are talking out of their *** as PTR as of this morning still proc's all Tene's.

Also PTR has increased the cooldown of Tene's to 20 Seconds.

No one does no.

GF is by far, the weakest class in the game to build for crit. ZERO crit severity feats/powers = crit is horrible to build for.

Literally every other class has at least a minor benefit or reason to value crit, not GF.

Timeless hero is a weak set. Overhyped because its slightly more ideal for crushing terrible noobs that don't fight back. Against any decent player, stalwart is miles ahead.

also all above posters talking about changes to tenebrous are wrong. There are no changes on the test server and none planned. It was already recently nerfed to 20 second cooldown - thats how it is on live.

Yea I think if Tene's remain stackable I am done with the game just takes any thought out of it and fun factor. Ill wait and see though.
