I wondered if buffing Virtue of Resolve so that it’s passive effect gives decent natural health regen for the entire party would be viable.
I was wondering if anyone can comment on this, whether it is a waste of time etc.

I’m fairly new to making my own builds so any feedback will be appeciated ^^.

Thank you.

No offense but the build doesnt look good to me, do you really need that much in healing? It proves how dodgy that site is, shows your roll as healing for less than 1.2k and yet its 1heal point for 1 heal, pretty much the only reason healing is worth bothering with at all.

If you really want to run with that much healing try to make better use of it, 5 points in valor, aegis / symbuls heal etc. Battle presence is a nice thought but i doublt that many people will thank you for it. rly pure of voice with this build all the way.

I was going to link you back your build with a few changes I felt would improve it but by the time I had finished it looks completely different. Strength in numbers, removing conditions, throwing out fury and aegis healing will be better for a party setting than just focusing on 1 passive heal.

May I ask why 20 in Zeal?

Just so that it doesn’t completely lack in DPS.

If there is something more viable however let me know

You wont have any dps anyway, just put the points in honor/virtues and bunker up a bit more ^^ take pure of voice instead of battle presence if you insist on using shouts, perhaps pick up some trooper runes, swap out some clerics for soliders, about all I can think of for that particular build.

Was your aim WvW zerging/roaming or PvE/PvP?

My aim was for dungeons/fractals, confined spaces where the passive effect of VoR is at it’s maximum effect.

I know most people say “Full zerker or gtfo” but I just wanted to try something supportive for a change.

You said “if you insist on using shouts” tbh I don’t. If there is something you think would be more viable let me know.
Also if I sacrifice too much healing power then the whole aim of the build is redundant because VoR won’t do enough passive heal.

Zeal V and Virtues IV must be a bad joke. But anyway, for dungeons or fractals, there can be only one answer to this build:

“Full zerker or gtfo”

Try posting some CONSTRUCTIVE feedback if you’re capable of that ^^

This is exactly what I was looking for

All I wondered was if VoR could be good enough to give decent natural healing.

Would you say that the build you posted would be decent for dungeons/fractals?
Or is it still worth going full zerker?

Thank you for your feedback ^^

I actually thought i had kept 3 of your rings/trinkets on healing to give you more like 1k worth.

I havn’t done much fractals but have a run a build somewhat like it in dungeons, not every group wants just zerkers, in fact unless your running with dedicated dungeon players I wouldn’t recommend it. It would be a good help for the party. I have run many times where others where mainly just zerkers and I def helped a lot and saved many wipes.

Its not a bad idea ofc to get some dps gear for when you want it but I wouldnt recommend any guardian starting of with it and it kinda sucks for wvw.

Anything to do with healing is a waste for pve. For guardian your better off just spamming hammer auto with writ of persistence and that will far exceed the support the heals and all your healing gear do. Hammer is best for fractals as well. Add in blind/vuln spam, master of consecrations, and the right utilities for the occasion like wall/shield, purge, retreat pretty much always, and stability when needed and your good to go. You should really only have 1 shout on your bar at a time which is mostly retreat or stand your ground when it’s needed.
