Everything You Need To Start Playing Hybrid Firebrand in World vs. World

- -- You've heard of damage, you've heard of support, but a number of WvW groups have recently switched to using hybrid builds that offer a mix of both attack and defense, as a way to extract as much damage as possible out of a squad. In this video, we cover one of the foundations of this style of building a comp, the Hybrid Firebrand, a blend of traditional Minstrel support and DPS burn guard roles.

Wow, you have a lot of melee interactions in your vid. Most wvw fights I've encountered, except havok ambushes, are 90% ranged except on a hard push.
Hybrid Firebrand only really works with groups that melee push, so I intentionally chose a few guilds to play with that I know could utilize it. I think most of this footage came from either Strike Force, [SF], or Stop Farming Me [bags]. Both guilds that I highly recommend, if you're on NA and looking for people to play with who favor that kind of playstyle.
@@sheffplaysgames My guild is on NA on the Lutgardis Conservatory team. We do objectives, open field, and roaming. I play zerg support too.
Who do you play with?
@@sheffplaysgames Guild name is Chaotic Style [CS]
I don't think I've ever seen them, but I'll keep an eye out! If you DM me their run times on Discord I could try and stop by when I'm back from this vacation. :)
ah yeah blue class time.
amazing guide. so thorough.
who is that scrapper in bags squad? he is so handsome and plays so well !
Why advance over hallowed ground?
It's two sources of Aegis, which benefits your Shattered Aegis. But more importantly, the primary source of Swiftness in a WvW party is from Guardian Staff 3. Since this build doesn't run Staff, it needs to recapture Swiftness from somewhere. You *can* do that with Febe, but then you're putting your Immob clear on cooldown. Or you can just use Advance, which is my preference.
the problem is you lose a lot of support for your party on that build :)
You do, which is why it gets paired with Renegade (extra Stability and Resistance), and maintaining a dedicated support to make up the healing loss. You do have to comp for it, but if you do, it's quite good.
@@sheffplaysgames that's exactly what we do ☺ i was just talking about the build on its own disregarding the comp
