Not the most well edited video and this is also my first attempt at a guide, but thought I would make one since there are no other videos on positioning and "positioning" is one of the catch-all terms veterans throw at WvW newcomers, expecting one word to encapsulate why they just died. Hopefully it wasn't too confusing and you learned something new. Thanks as always to my firebrand and scrapper for carrying me through 2021 and thanks for the feedback on the initial draft, Tails.

Questions are welcome.

You can swap out as many berserker pieces as you want for marauders for more survivability. The DPS loss is only about 5%.

Dragonhunter build: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?PWwAEt/l...
Berserkers and marauders are interchangeable as you see fit.
