Sword/Sword
Utility

Variants

  • Legendary Dwarf Stance can be used instead of Legendary Alliance Stance, offering very similar DPS and different utility.
  • You can also opt to camp Greatsword. This is a small DPS loss, and allows you to bring a utility weapon like Staff in your other set.

Strong power DPS that performs even better against large hitbox bosses. Recent changes have made it more usable, though swapping out legends or weapons for utility now comes with a much greater damage loss.

Great build but I would rather use salvation than devastation for better sustain. Better survivability and sustainability of boons, which provides a barrier every few seconds. Overall, it is a great class and build, very easy to use and master once you get a better grasp of understanding of your rotation since dodge is now a part of your rotation.

While in large hitbox bosses the GS go better the sword is there for little ones, this build is good and easy to understand I'm playing with dwarf, but I am going to test with aliance legend soon. for beginners is excellent build because you can use Dwarf legend instead alliance until you have all HP needed, and this build can be used in Open World with just peculiar difference. You can play all around with just little changes and play nice, very fun to play. I vote 5 stars on it .

Solid 4, maybe mid to 5. While it's a good build, the only real downside to it is the time investment needed to adjust to some seemingly minor surface changes: Dodge (V) is now part of your rotation, and you must use Greatsword 4 / Sword 3 as your defensive utilities (Block and Evade frames respectively). Sword 3 is risky when there are lingering damage effects scattered around the environment, more-so when the target is mobile, and is low-DPS effective when multiple targets are presented even with Impossible Odds channeled. This build works more than fine if you need a pDPS slot filled in your fractals/raid groups. Edit: I'm updating this to 5 stars for a number of reasons: There's decent support utility via Saint Viktor in the Alliance stance in the form of subgroup stunbreaks and a spammable condi cleanse as well as off-healing that's pretty robust without investing anything into Healing Power. Regardless if you go GS/Sw-Sw or GS/Staff, you have a lot of Defiance break and a slew of CCs and engagement approaches. While there are pDPS elite specializations that can offer different or a wider array of team utility skills, the Vindicator's versatility in approaching different mechanics (defensive use of the Dodge, as well as solid evade frames and GS4's block mechanic) all slide it into the 5 star category for me.
