Notes / FAQ:
1) The link goes to gw2buildcraft.com - I am unable to paste the URL directly as the link gets interpreted incorrectly.
2) The link does contain all information. There are tabs at the top (just under the class icons) that allow you to switch to armor, trinkets, spec, and food info.
3) Divinity runes are expensive. Beryl Orbs are a very good alternative - divinity is only marginally better and beryl is a fraction of the cost.
4) My D/P spec from outnumbered #5 is still good. I just found I prefer the extra burst that D/D has and overall enjoy the play style more. I really hate flopping around through black powder fields constantly, and find CnD more engaging and rewarding in the long run. This D/D build is not quite as survivable as D/P, but has more upfront burst.
