Celestial Juggernaut+Bunker Down+Elixirs
I used to run something similar like that on my engi front line wvw (had a break of 1.5 year)
differeces are p/s instead of rifle (I like the shield utility), healelixer instead of turret (combined with HGH), elixer B instead of U (although I might give U a try now)
and traits Protection injection instead of invigorating speed, and kinda torn between backpack regenerator and self regulating defence wich is a lifesaver
also, my thoughness (3k) and power (almost 2k) were a bit higher, cond dam a bit lower

This looks really good… Must try it.
that it makes every other class in the game boring to play.”

I run a Juggernaut HGH build in WvW, but for Celestial I’d probably swap Juggernaut for Incendiary Powder at a minimum.
I don’t PvP much, but I’d probably start out with something like this and go from there.

Backpack regenerator is good with bunker down (And flamer), BD heals like 800 every 2sec+ permanent regeneration, so you really sustain. On its own it is pretty lackluster imho. I think invigorating speed has better synergy, permanent vigor is no joke on a build with no access to the Tool lines, and juggernaut means I get pulsing stability so ideally I wouldn’t proc protection injection that often. Elixir U is pretty nice, with one big caveat: IT kittenING INTERRUPTS YOU. Way to go anet, bug has been reported for a long time but we get to play with a stunbreaker that actually interrupts us. The workaround is to use the elixir in between animations and not during animations like you would. I can’t explain how mad I was when I learned that this was the reason I was failing to quickness stomp or res, the godkitten skill was interrupting me. Fix this bullkitten yesterday please.

Hmm, Incendiary Powder is interesting and it could be worth it but only in certain matchups I think. Battle Sigil is just bad for this build, Strength Sigil equals it after 2 seconds and vastly surpasses it afterwards. (20~ very quick stacks from juggernaut+sigil) Doom instead of Perception is a good idea, I’ll probably make that switch for matches where I feel I wouldn’t be able to keep the perception stacks.
Elixir U replacing juggernaut so stability is covered, and you also get consistent fury, allowing you to get the rifle trait on firearms, but you lose a reflect and quickness… It looks interesting, I’ll try some of the stuff for sure. Thank you for the ideas.
