My PvP build! Great damage and survivability!
Three posts in a couple of minutes and all of them are troll posts. Calm down.
EDIT:
This was directed towards an answer OP got but apparently it got moderated but my post wasnt removed.

Only thing I would recommend is putting that five from Zeal into Radiance or Virtues.
I understand your thinking, since you’re traited heavily in symbols you’d like to get another one, but tbh creating a Symbol of Wrath when at 25% hp is rather lackluster compared to some of the other things you could get.
Justice is Blind is great for damage mitigation and you can also use it to guarantee a stomp. Or you could put it in Virtues and get an adept trait.

It said “error” on my first post so I made a new one. Then both got uploaded but I tried to remove one and wrote “sorry for dublicate” but the moderators removed the other one and left the one with the sorry note on. Then both got removed and I made this one.
Sorry for any inconvenience!

Thanks for the great response!
I will reconsider my 5 points in zeal! Thanks for the tips!
The main reason I put 5 points in it is because of how good the healing system works (included in the video). It helps a lot in that perspective but I understand what you mean!
Apparently a very similar build was made before I did mine, so I won’t take all cred for it!
To be honest this build x/x/30/30/x has been around since beta. There have been many different variances of it. So no one can really take credit for it, but that really doesn’t matter. What matters is you took the time to make a video and guide to help fellow players. Which is what this community needs more of.

Keep in mind my experience is with PvE and WvW, but I found the heal from symbols wasn’t that great unless I was PvE-ing with a hammer, because I literally spent all my time standing in symbols (and the protection helped too, especially in convincing other people to stand in them). Here, you’ve only got the GS’s symbol without even reduced cooldown, and one when you hit 25% life, on a 30s c/d. You sure it’s that helpful?
Depending on how badly you feel the loss of health+healpower I wonder if it might be worth skipping merciful altogether, going 0/0/30/20/20, and taking Absolute Resolution instead. With the extra condition removal (since you’re carrying Renewed Focus, and already take an actual focus as well) perhaps you could be rid of Purity and take something like Defender’s Flame or SiN. DF seems like it would go well with your focus + heal skill (and of course aegis), and the benefit of SiN is fairly straightforward. Plus you’ve only got one meditation with a cast time, so the other meditation trait would be a bit ‘meh’ I expect.
