For pistol whip stuff

This is strictly for pvp in heart of the mist, not wvw or pve. because this build lacks a lot of utility especially in many scenarios that are found in wvw. (such as having reduced fall damage, scorpion wires, etc etc)

20 deadly arts with mug and improvisation
30 crit strikes with signet of power & use, and executioner
20 trickery with thrill of crime and trickster.

Utility spells
-signet of malice or hide in shadows
-haste
-signet of shadows
-signet of agility

elite
-thieves guild

For runes
-Its going to be all runes of Divinity

and sigils on weapons
Sigil of air on the sword
Sigil of force on the pistol

so blah blah blah you know what each of those things do i hope.

so for pvp.

when you see a target you want to kill.
open up with
Infiltrator's strike (for the gap closer)
Haste
Pistolwhip
Steal
Pistolwhip till dead.


So as you know when you do pistol whip, your character is stuck in position for the duration of the animation. Stealing to the enemy warps you to their position (if they haven't stealthed) allowing you to land the majority of your hits, Which case haste should still be active allowing you to land a few additional pistolwhip stuns and blows.
This is how you work around not being able to move during pistol whip.
For your concern that you have no endurance when you use haste, you have signet of agility for that.

Is there toughness/condition/healing or condition/power/toughness cloth gear? I'd prefer the first, but 2nd if the first doesn't exist.
what level range are you looking armor for ?
there's only 6 types of stat combos for armor/weapons.
If someone doesn't tell you I'll look it up when I get back
whoops sorry bit more combo types lol couldn't remember them all but here's a list

Valkyrie: power, crit, vitality
Rampager: precision, condition, power
Knight : toughness, power, precision
Explorer: Magic find, power, precision
Cleric: Healing, power, toughnesss
Carrion: Condition, power, vitality
Berserker: power, precision, crit

Add Pillaging, usually POWER and MAGIC FIND +% - This is one of the most useful farming sets btw.

i mean it could work for pve, but i prefer pistols honestly. especially in dungeons when half the time you want to kill stuff from range.

however i do love the bouncing blade you get with dualing daggers

Use signet of malice with it and you'll almost always keep your health at 100%. It's a very very boring playstyle in PVE though.

Keep shortbow as your secondary weapon (for leveling) for running around and events. more mobs you tag with clusterbomb the more loot you get.

Oh wow... Just got home and tried out pistol whip... it's very nice :D I see why I never knew about it. I disliked using sword from the beginning so I stopped using it.

CATNIP DAMNIT

You or your friend need to keep in touch with me because I'm tempted to jump ship and join a guild with my JP Classmates or jump to the server these guys are on and join them. I'm tired of all these guild invites from people I don't know.

I'm also tired of broken events. I need 2 more *** skill points in this zone but *** Lyssa is broken and one other event (for the SP south of Ilya) is broken.

Also sooooo many contested waypoints it's not even funny.

A few tips that might help you level.

1. Carry all 3 gathering tools and gather everything you can while running around the map.
2. All hearts on the maps have level suggestions attached to them to help you figure out where to go next.
3. Unlock maps (free exp)
4. Do your story missions at the level they suggest. It's good exp. I thought the last story mission would be the lvl 80 one and I was wrong there is more after.
5. Do events as you come across them on the map and find out which ones are easy and which arent worth doing. (Having the maps unlocked helps with this. Can just jump around waypoints to find which events are up)
6. If you look on your map it shows suggested levels for each zone. Feel free to jump zones at or near the levels suggested. I sat in a 25 zone until 30 and it took a while. There is plenty of zones to level in. Even at lvl 80 I only have 54% of the world map unlocked and some I unlocked just cause. (like all the towns)

If I can think of anything else Ill edit.
