Guild Wars 2

In power+tough+healing gear

Sword or Mace. Be it PvE or PvP.

I didn’t know Warriors had a support build with healing gear. That adds what, 4k healing/25 seconds?

Full clerics/apoth gear with healing shout build using healing signet + healing sigil w/ no food

9241.625 per 25 seconds -> 370 passive regen from signet and adrenal
shouts heal for about group for 2k each

you can build sword/mace/shield, hammer, or longbow ideally
using apoth id say go sword/shield or warhorn + longbow
using clerics id say go mace/shield or warhorn + hammer

Yes and the only benefit to the group you’re getting from the cleric’s gear is another ~1000 per heal x3 every 25-30 seconds. That’s…not much. Adrenal health doesn’t benefit from +healing and the regen on signet scales very poorly, and it only affects you.

You’re far better off going Knight’s gear with the same build imo.

Axe.

MH Sword and mace are kittenty weapons whether or not if you are damage or support. Sword’s only usefulness is the leap. Mace only usefulness is removing defiant.

MH Axe as a.. support weapon? Ever heard of Mace weakness spamming bosses and Sword being able to peel bosses away from DPS? Before you talk I would suggest that you understand the difference between a weapon better “traited for DPS” and a weapon better “traited for support.”

If you didn’t know the difference between support and DPS, well now you do.

Axe #2 has vulnerability, Vulnerability weakens mob so it does more damage to it.
Axe #3 has range cripple, so you can throw a cripple at a mob chasing down clothy.
Axe #1 has the best dps of the three. When an ally goes down, that ally attacks a low hp mob and you spam dps on that low hp mob to take it down so that ally will rally.

Better than 2 defiant removers, and a leap. Weakness doesn’t last long enough to matter.
