GW2 WvW Builds

Curated Guild Wars 2 World vs World zerg builds, grouped by profession and elite spec, each ready to open in the live editor.

A WvW squad needs more than damage. Every build here is tagged with the role it fills — Power DPS, Condi DPS, Heal, Boon, Stab or Strip — so you can see what a spec brings to the squad and pick the slot yours is missing. Each spec has its own page on why it plays the way it does; open a build for its traits, skills and gear, with tooltips in World vs World numbers.
