Guild Wars 2

I’ve been messing around with a pretty fun build that I run in a WvW havoc group, 100% boon duration.

For gear I’m running full soldier (this could be subbed out for sentinel’s)
Runes: x2 Superior rune of water
x2 Superior rune of the monk
x2 Superior rune of the Traveler

Weapons: Staff/Hammer (both soldier’s/sentinel’s)
Sigil of momentum in the staff
Sigil of energy in the hammer

Trinkets are full givers (snowflake) with Platinum Doubloon’s in every slot except for the back piece
I use a Soldier’s Beta fractal back piece, So use what ever you feel is best here.

Traits:
Zeal:0
Radiance:0
Valor:10-IV
Honor:30- II, IX, XI
Virtues:30- IV, IX, X

Slot skills: Shelter, “Retreat”, “Stand your ground”, “Hold the line”, and Renewed Focus

Test it out and let me know what you think!

Do you really think 5% boon duration from giver’s jewelery is worth the 240 stats they replace?

If you ate the 20% boon duration food you could replace all the jewelery and all but two doubloons and be 3% over the 100 duration cap.

@Serval: I was thinking about that and I definitely plan to mess around with that at some point. My thought process was that its a pure support build so the only stats that I really need are Healing power, Vit, and Toughness. Also this lets me use the metric kitten ton of mango pies and ommnom berry bread that I have.

I think being a full healer is not exactly a good idea for guild wars 2.
But anyway, don’t use giver’s jewellery and soldier’s armor, you better run cleric if you want to be a support…
Oh, and replace worst sigil in the game with Sigil of Life maybe? I mean you think 125 toughness is better than 250 healing power?

Just run the +20% boon duration food, get rid of Giver’s and replace it with something more useful.

Also, this build will be nerfed as A-net is closing in on the rune / sigil balancing patch. See various previous and videos about it. But basically, you will not be able to have all those 15% boon duration bonusses from all different rune sets. Better to start getting used to the 6 piece bonusses and plan ahead.
