Dhuum's Covenant - Looking For Builds, Skills, Tips

  • Hey fellow GW1 enjoyers,

    I'm no expert when it comes to builds, I usually check out the wiki, most of the time I'm able to understand how the build works and then just copy it. :D

    The problem when it comes to the 'new' Dhuum's Covenant mode though is that a lot of meta and great builds are very specific for the type of role you are playing.

    For example I have a shadow theft dagger spammer assassin who after she shadow steps has 20 crit and 20 dagger mastery. She hits like a truck. And also blows up in a second if the prot/heal is off.

    I believe lot of you experienced players could get away with playing a build like that in Dhuum's Covenant but I personally would love to have self-sustain, and panic skills at the ready if something goes wrong.


    There meta builds that feel good for this mode are VoS derv with mystic regen, tao rangers, ritualists in general (spammer, healer, maybe even st etc.) and monks in general (again prot, hybrid, heal).

    That being said I'd love to have some inputs on what builds you are running for this mode or what you'd run. Any profession, any combo, I love looking at builds :D

    Also any skills that don't really come up often but for Dhuum's Covenant it may makes sense. For example: for warriors Signet of Stamina to me makes a lot of sense as a panic skills to get out of a fight that went wrong.

    Last tips are also greatly appreciated.


    Thank you and take care!

  • I would just like to make a comment about the Canthan New Year event. This year there will be more players on the rings, which will (perhaps) cause lag. I would be wary of this event in Dhumm mode.
