Guild Wars 2

I’ve been running a support build in WvW, does fairly well. I love the healing output it has, but it could use some better survivability.

So in playing around with some theory crafting, I was looking at just swapping stats to soldiers, and runes to some not so cheap ones. The loss in healing power doesn’t look like it’ll be a huge hit as I fear, but not sure if I might be over compensating. But it will have better health/armor and power as well.

Think I’m on the right track? Or should I look for some room in the middle somewhere?

Elixir infused bombs kind of build has place only in zerg so I guess you’re interested in it.
Notice that bombs have rather bad scaling with healing power and pretty high with power.
Focus maybe on knight/calestial type of build? That way you will have over 3k armor, you will crit often (45-55% crit chance) and for pretty high and your bombs will heal for pretty much the same.
