I have been using an Axe/Torch as my primary weapons in this build. I'm wondering why the axe isn't recommended since it has bleeds and burn?
High damage potential, and probably the burstiest condi build around (if you discount venom precasts etc). Being able to freely use F2 and F3 gives it a lot of active defense too. The main drawback is the need to constantly zoom into melee range.
I run 100% Burning Duration from stats and Sword/Torch. Since the February 2023 update Condi Willbender is easy, fun, and high damage with a good skill cap to squeeze out damage. Willbender in terms of rotation plays much like a Dragonhunter. While learning the build just focus on landing 1 weapon set of choice and big hitting skills during F1. Virtues (F1-F3) now stack making the build very aggressive. Using F3 to stay on boss during an AOE doesn’t decrease damage or override your F1 anymore. F2 to keep up stack of Tempo if the boss moves and sword 2 to catch them. It’s very satisfying and damage output even while missing a perfect rotation is high. Willbender brought me back into playing Guardian and dusting off Dragonhunter for fun.
Have ran both with great sword and 1h sword and both does great dps, rotation is easy enough and is alot of fun to play. I have found myself keeping pace if not outpacing other known meta condi builds with minimum effort.
