Guild Wars 2

This is a PvP build but an even more powerful option could be used in WvW groups.

There are similar builds out there but none that I’ve seen are the same!

“perma” dodge (100% AoE vigor, signet of endurance, sigils of energy)

900+ HP/sec self-regen and 250+ AoE regen. (over 1k/sec regen with life stacks up)

up to 80%+ retaliation up-time (reflecting 400+ damage per hit). This is huge against DPS classes!!

perma swiftness, AoE

Revive master – increased toughness, reduced damage, faster revives, AoE might on revive, battle standard for AoE insta-revive

lots of CC – mace, shield, and sword

AoE condi removal / boon conversion

Summary

Extremely survivable, lots of team support, good DPS when you factor in retaliation, no major weaknesses except only 1 active stun break, which can be controlled by dodging or blocking stun skills

Pro-Tips!

Warhorn converts Fear into stability, which isn’t really useful on yourself since you can’t cast while feared, but is really useful on allies. When your team gets AoE feared, quickly use dolyak signet and warhorn and give AoE stability to allies!!

Pick up and plant banners again for blast finishers

After using battle standard, dont forget picking it up #2 gives AoE stability 4.5 seconds on a 15 second cooldown.

Increased retaliation uptime vs mesmers when you use warhorn to convert confusion into more retaliation

My GF has Triple B’s and they work better than this.

lol >.<

its not a solo Q build your teammates need to know how to benefit from it but in tPvP its really annoying which means its good

It is not that bad for being a support bunker. but you do not need two sigils of life on your weapons. Rather take a sigil that heals on swap? or anything but two sigils of life. That is simply a waste of potential. Otherwise it is fairly interesting. I don’t see this build becoming that popular though as most Warrior mentality is to do the most damage as possible.

Not sure if this works, but I would like to point out couple things.

The Mercy rune bonus while reviving doesn’t stack with warriors minor trait Determined Revival, so no point taking those runes in your trait selection

And Vigor does not stack with Signet of Stamina. So you will be wasting the passive of that signet for almost all the time. If it is there for the full cleanse, then I suppose it is ok.
