Skill searchable build database - Guild Wars Forums

Astraeos · Dec 20, 2010, 11:41 AM // 11:41

I'm sure something like this is out there, but I haven't figured out where yet -- hoping for a bit of guidance from more experienced players.

I'm looking for a build database (like PvX) where you can search for builds by specific skills. So if I'm looking for a build that uses "Serpent's Quickness", I search by that skill and get links to the builds that use them.

Anyone know if that's available, and if so, where?

I used to look at this one some time back.

I am at work atm and the site is blocked so I don't know if it still does what you want though...

You actually answered your own question - pvxwiki in its old state and gwpvx in its new location both have a search function that does what you want.
http://pvxwiki.com or http://www.gwpvx.com/PvX_wiki

Please don't use the old address (pvxwiki.com) as that has been vandalized and is no longer being maintained by the pvx staff.

Sort of. I just checked the new site and did a search on a skill name. The results are extremely raw. Gamependium's skill search is much better, but most of the builds are pretty old.

Now that I'm more awake and have had a bit of caffeine, the PvX wiki search is fairly easy to navigate. It's not as pretty as Gamependium's, but you'll get more recent builds. Gamependium may give you some good ideas, though.

EDIT: Wow. I guess I'm still not totally awake. I should have just edited my original post. Oh well.

I agree. While PvX is a fantastic site for general build information, I haven't found it's search function to be that helpful for the purpose here (searching for builds using a specific skill). I'll poke around Gamependium's and see what turns up, but if anyone knows of another option, please post. : )

EDIT: Hmmm... well MuleGoon posted again while I was posting. I'll try the coffee and see if that helps.
