GW2 Weaver WvW Builds

Weaver splits your attunement in two. The element you attune to goes to your main hand and the one you were in slides to your off hand, so you are always holding a pair, and attunement recharges are shortened to make that affordable. The pay-off is the Dual Attack on skill 3, which changes with the pair you are in, plus Elemental Refreshment handing you barrier every time you use one and Elemental Polyphony giving you attributes from both halves at once.

We carry one Weaver build: Staff power, from the backline, Dragon's/Berserker's/Marauder under Scholar, dropping Meteor Shower on whatever the commander marked.

Its trait line is not what the name suggests. Elements of Rage does not reward weaving — it rewards being attuned to a single element — so the rhythm is to weave for the dual attack, then settle back into one element and hold the damage bonus. Superior Elements makes those dual attacks weaken the target and gives you critical chance against weakened foes. It is damage with no support attached: bring it when the squad has a frontline that can keep the enemy away from you.
