Overview

A high sustain Power Spellbreaker duelist build for PvP using the recently introduced Spear.


Skill Bar

Spear
Staff
Utility


Skill Variants

Heal

  • Mending over Defiant Stance - more consistent skill but harder to use under pressure due to the long cast time.


Utility

For the optional slot:

  • Signet of Stamina - the passive endurance regen not only gives you higher sustain, but also better Alacrity Alacrity uptime from the relic.
  • Bull's Charge - a more traditional setup with good defense and offense as well as some mobility.
  • Banner of Tactics - great anti-CC tool but it has to be used proactively, as it doesn't break stun for the user.
  • Banner of Defense - could act as a second healing skill with barrier sharing and defensive boons.


Weapons

  • Dagger/Shield over Staff - better damage, lower survivability. Use Sigil of Intelligence/Savagery on the Dagger set and Sigil of Energy/Cleansing on Spear.

Its not the immortal, cc chaining, dps powerhouse it used to be but its still great. Dont listen to the doom reviews from warrior mains.

Ethan gave this build 2 stars • October 2024
As predicted, relic of rivers, spear, and spellbreaker were nerfed as a whole, pity since sb was the reason spear was so oppressive but it's a dead weapon now. But atleast this initiated the end of bunker meta

Nerfed to the ground. You can still play it and have it be viable but definitely not a top pick I'd say.

Broken from beta. Enjoy your time before nerf. We have a diversity crisis in PVP.
