Here is my build, I understand that theirs not much damage and that Natures Renewal may screw up alot of the other classes in my build, but maybe you could come up with some changes to it? Maybe Diversion instead of Natures Renewal? Or maybe the other classes can be changed to fix it?

Thanks alot for your help, I really appreciate it!!

why would you run nr when you have boon prots? You're asking to lose. Also, aftershock sucks on a hammer warrior, the aftercast is unbearable.

Wow... Build Down... Quickly...

1) Bar on the boonprot is OK... Attributes suck. Higher divine Favor please. Also, why are you running him in an NR build?

2) Blessed Lights bar is OK... But when I look at his attributes, it doesn't seem like he's using any runes... WTF?

3) The runes and attributes on your flashbot are, yet again, pretty messed up... Also, why Shock? It's not like you care about the damage it does on this guy, and it has a shorter knockdown time than Gale. Run Gale, because it's ranged, and it knocks down for longer...

4) Rethink Glyph of Lesser Energy. Attributes aren't horrible, but they could use some work. Maybe add a run speed boost for your flag runner?

5) Wow, this guy is pretty interesting... 16 Axe Mastery, please. Run Frenzy. Drop Aftershock. Rethink the attributes and runes too...

6) Hex Breaker Hammer Warrior... Interesting concept, but your attributes are horrible, and so is your rune setup. 16 Hammer Mastery, please. Plus, Irresistible and Crushing Blow are your ONLY hammer attacks. You realise you can only get a Knockdown when they're under Guardian/Aegis or a Block stance? So, chances are Crushing is going to be blocked in that case... TBH rethink this entire charactar.

7) Oath Shot, please. Barbed Trap is ftw. So is some kind of block/evade stance. Better attributes/runes is also ftw.

8) I'm trying to see the point to this charactar, but I'm missing it. Spam Siphon Speed and IoR, under NR? That seems pretty worthless.

Wrong! He has Aftershock on his Shock Axe, of course. Because we all know warriors with Shock+Aftershock are leet.

Changes I would make:

On Boon Prot: Higher Divine Favor, as said above.
Blessed Light Hybrid: Not familiar with Blessed Lights, so I won't comment.
Elementalist: Switch out Shock for Gale. Perhaps Healing Breeze.
Flag Runner: Switch out Glyph of Lesser Energy with something else. Perhaps Shard Storm. Or Healing Breeze. Or Draw Conditions.
Axe: Take out Axe Rake, To The Limit, and Aftershock for Bull's Strike/Penetrating Blow, Frenzy, and Executioner's Strike. Also, the attributes are screwed up - go with 12 +3 +1 Axe, at least.
Hammer: Replace "Charge!" with Backbreaker or something. You need a stable knockdown - plus Backbreaker is <3. I would drop Hex Breaker for TTL. And the attributes are also screwed up.
Trapper: No experience with, so won't comment. Nature's Renewal is something that jumped out at me with a Boon Prot. As said above.
Mesmer: I would rather go with Expel for the elite. Draw has 20 recharge. Et cetera. And it's pretty out of place here.

If find it rather weird that u have an ice ele, a hexing mesmer and a NR trapper..

NR > your boon prots. Axe warrior has no IAS. Whats the point of having aftershock there? Sorry, but this build might be useful for 2,000-4,000 guilds, where most GvGs are for laughs.

He only has one Boon Prot, but yes, the build is poorly thought out. I would suggest copying an existing build that you like the look of from a high level guild. The GvG Build Directory thread is also a decent place to find builds.
