That armor is in the game
This picture is my 2 cents on what I would do to improve the HUD. Criticism is welcomed.

What’s the ppoint of this build in WvW?
Meat shield/revive, keep enemies off their siege if you can and knock away enemy finishers/invisible thiefs and chase mesmers keeping them on their toes
Conditions will absolutely destroy you.
You fail to realize mace 2 removes all conditions when standing on a symbol. Don’t believe me try it out. It does.
I’m pretty sure it doesn’t. In fact I just tested it out and mirrored your traits to see if it was a hidden aspect not mentioned in any tool tips and it didn’t wipe conditions.
You may just be seeing them drop off due to duration ending, or someone else is removing your conditions without you realizing it.
Okay maybe you are right But they never bother me
I might argue that you would get more consistent aoe healing out of the sigils of energy and dodging than you would out of some of the sigils you listed, specifically sigil of superior water when your crit % is relatively low.
I stated that sigil of water was NOT VITAL. It was just something I threw on my staff and even staff is not vital. So your point isn’t very strong But I will look into sigil of energy thanks.
You may be unkillable, but how do you actually intend to kill anything with a build like this? At the very least you should run with Apothecary gear, then you can dish out some burn damage.
Unkillable build is what it is. At no time did I state you do damage. Infact i stated you will do some of the most pathetic damage seen in the game If you traded survivability for damage then it defeats the whole purpose of the build
Conditions will absolutely destroy you.

The “Unkillable” Build
http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fUAQNApeWlUgyC33RKEf4ESWBDE7BG9Rb01jESiYIA;TkAqbM3Iuxej7G5NrPGNMdA
This build is a tank/support build that focuses on toughness and healing power.
Healing is key to this build and when you get good with it, you’ll wonder why you ever used skill 6 in the first place. There is nothing in this game that you can’t tank/kite with this and it pushes survivability to the breaking point of which some may say the class is plain broken. But I beg to differ since you will do some of the MOST PATHETIC DAMAGE seen in this game.
You’ll be using exotic CLERIC Armour with SUPERIOR RUNES OF DWAYNA. The old version of this build used to recommend runes of the monk but it turns out that runes of dwayna are more effective since they give regeneration bonuses and regen will heal you a little over 1.5khp/sec so as you can imagine just a few seconds of regen will almost top up your health(13k-16k) to full. So any extended healing duration makes a huge difference.
By the end of it you should have anywhere over 1.4k healing power. I have 1.6k since I have some ascended but the difference isn’t too noticeable.
Now for your weapons you have to have mace/shield as your main set.
The secondary I recommend a staff, but a greatsword is fine if you want to do a bit more damage(Not much more lol). On your CLERIC’s mace you’ll want SIGIL OF SUPERIOR LIFE and on your shield SIGIL OF SUPERIOR RESTORATION. Getting kills with the mace will add to your healing power as well as the shield gives you a small burst heal each kill you get credit for. For your staff use SUPERIOR SIGIL OF ENERGY. When you swap the the staff you will get half your endurance back providing you with another dodge-roll and skill 4 which heals you like a boss and buffs allies with 12 stacks of might. Also the ally heal is noticeable as much as night and day.
And before anyone asks, YES! It works out very well in World vs World.
You can tank A LOT and your elite and 6 come in handy more times than not. But the only thing I would change to be more survivable in WvW would be “hold the line!” to Judges Intervention. For when escaping a zerg of enemies chasing you down (when you get good, you can mostly get away even if you run half way across a WvW map regardless if there are more than 20 enemies).
So try it out! or if there is anything you would change to improve or your current build, comment away
EDIT: Thanks to Lexiculus.5296, Sigil of Energy is a much better substitute for Sigil of Water. Thankyou for improving the build!

As the title says I’m wondering about that.
If this mini-game replaces the normal general content updates we saw last months.
Thanks.
There will be another release at the end of April on top of this bonus living world release today for Super Adventure Box. Date, features, and content TBD (spoiler: of course we have a Flame & Frost release!)
And when is Polymok coming? I have been waiting til the 2nd month of the game being out
And you better have it so mini-pets fight, none of the polymok pieces BS. Give mini’s a clear value and not just some vanity accessory
I purchased around 30 BLC keys, opened the chests… and got nothing but some pathetic boosters I’ll never use, BL axes I’ll never use, 9 mystery tonics I WILL use someday… but no weapon skin. why Arenanet? why? I feel cheated.
If you are going to advertise these awesome weapon skins people can get, next time could you atleast make the drop rate be known? And words of advise.
IF you are going to have cool skins in BL chests, and sell the keys with REAL money. Please make the drop rate a 1/10 chance next time. Or you’ll lose the respect of your playerbase. It makes us feel like you cheated us

You are not hearing me… (-_-)
The jumps, are EASY. The only trouble is SEEING YOUR CHARACTER. And times you deliberatly slow down to see your character, you realise a mob of norns are covering your view of the jumps but that doesn’t matter coz the goo already got you coz you slowed down.
I play a short female human and she… isn’t noticable in a mob of norn and charr haha Meh, I will keep trying until I get lucky and there are no big players doing it. I almost did it a few times when for a few minutes when everyone was human/asura. But then norn showed up and I started doing a lot worse.
I’m sorry my post didn’t help you
I have done the tower on all races, including an Asura mesmer. I had no speed boost on that character. So I can fully understand your situation. All through the first 10 jumps I was completely hidden by all these Charr and Norn chars. (But then they start to die off and it gets easier).You really have to get a feel for when to jump. That’s where muscle memory kicks in. But with muscle memory (any kind of memory really) you have to understand that you can’t train for too long at a time. I wouldn’t advise playing the clock tower for more than 1-2 hours at a time (unless you’ve already mastered it).
Go out, do some Halloween achievements, or if you’ve already completed all of them, then do something else you like to do. It’s important that you also calm down. I know I was ready to destroy my keyboard with the help of my mouse after the first 2 hours of failing at the tower.
But then I slept on it, and the next day immediately at my first try I’ve made it further then ever before, and within 15 minutes I’ve successfully completed it. After that I could already do it at least 1 out of 3 times.
I know my cousin was in the same boat. Couldn’t get past the first cog on the first day of trying, easily completed it the next day.
I know this is not much help, but it’s all I can give really… Please, trust me. You need to give it a rest if you’ve really been doing it for 6 hours. I can only imagine the psychological pain you’re feeling right now
Yes, the norn do die off. Mainly coz they actually finish the puzzle. But this being an MMO there are plenty more norn coming to fill in. I an usually an optimistic person but after 4 hours of the same repeated fails I can honestly say that was the first time I got close to raging. And yes, I felt like forcing the keyboard through my LCD screen but we both know no good comes from that.
And yes, i have every other possible achievement up to this point. obviously i don’t have ‘attend the party’ yet. -sigh- And i am a completionist. so not having this achievement yet bugs me so badly. I hope I get it tonight
As other people have stated before, if you’re having trouble making some of the jumps, it’s best to look at other people’s videos.
If fact, you can start with mine

hahaha I am a completionist. I even have 31 minipets for the sake of colecting. I have over 260 dyes also. And well, anything that is collectible XD and this achievement is bugging me coz I need it. the only others I have left are “attend the party” and the one for getting all achievements “emmisary of the mad king” … so in other words, the only one I need is the clock tower achievent and then the other 2 are sure things. I have been at the clock tower (no life I know) for 3 DAYS… the other night, I spent 6 hours straight trying to do it.
And I don’t want to pay anyone to do it coz I want to do it, it is my character and account.
This has happenned to me a few times! But I didnt let it bother me… what bothers me is having the clock tower NOT instanced… I admit the tower puzzle itself is not that hard, BUT norn and big charr make it impossible for me to see my character or where to jump And when I get tired of failing repeatedly for an hour I sometimes get cautious and go a bit slower to see my character… then fail coz the green goo gets me.
———COMPILATION OF ALL PREVIOUS TOP IDEA’S———
- Preview Armour/Weapons on the trading post. – This would save disappointment for those who are buying for cosmetic reasons only to realise they wasted a small fortune on something they dislike the look of.
- Add a “dungeon token” collection tab in the bank. – This would not only be convenient, save bank/inventory space but make sense also. Since you collect them making them collectibles.
- Better party group mechanics. – How about seeing who is party leader? Or making someone else leader?
- First person view. – This would add more immersion, get people to explore a lot more and encourage them to take more screenshots.
- Damage reflect numbers. – People who play tanky roles can tell how effective they are at negating damage. you could add it as a tickbox in the options UI.
- Need a Duelling Mechanic. – 100% of players want this.There have been over 20 times where I have wanted to test my abilities against another player and vice versa.
- View Gear of another player – This would make everything more convenient so I don’t have to bug another player bout what his gear is.
- Key Bind 3 Different keybinds. Loot, Resurrect and Interact. – Time after time, I have resurrected a useless NPC instead of looting.
- Player Housing. – I can not express at how much this would improve your game. It adds more immersion than the other 90% of the game. It could also be another money sink and you could even sell furniture through your gem store I would love to make my own house in my home instance and make it like a mini castle with statues along a long hallway with armour on them and red carpet with a massive statue of zhaitan as my centrepiece. This will get people to play longer and provide another end-game.
- Barber Shop – Either do what u did with GW1 with a micro-transaction or put in an in-game barber shop where players mess with hair/facial hair options. If not, a magical guy that allows you to remake your entire characters(without changing race or gender).
- load/save traits. – This would be one of the best and most used features. Of course you could charge us but it would be nice and convenient. That way we can pay a small fee in-game and change our entire build on the fly to something more suited to the next dungeon boss battle.
- in-depth stats – What? no overall “Magic find percentage”?
- In-game PING meter like gw1. – Everyone would like to know their ping on the main UI like in a corner you could have a small coloured bubble like gw1.
- no stack limit to collectibles in bank. – I have so much iron yet I dont want to sell it amoung other materials and they now eat up bank space etc.
- Actual cutscenes – This would make the storyline so much better. But I understand is takes a while with the so many variations.
- load/save/send builds. – This would be one of the best and most used features. Of course you could carge us but it would be nice and convenient.
- in-depth stats – What? no “Magic find percentage”? or “healing power”?
- voice support for 5-man parties. – If I could voice chat while doing a dungeon with a bunch of randoms, this would raise dungeon success by miles.
- Guild Halls – We need a place to hangout with our guildies. simple. PUT IT IN!
- Multiple Preview options. – This game has the wort clipping ever. And when you preview stuff, mostly you have to take the time to get naked just to see it properly coz ur armour/clothes cover it. Maybe if you add a button or two like “combat stance” so your character in the preview window weilds it in their hands so you can see it better or even a “go naked” button at the very least.
- Potion making with random cool things. – Only +% potions?… REALLY!?… what about potions that make you the size of a norn? as small as an asura? different race? opposite gender?… hell, even a potion that makes clones of yourself would be awesome enough. You people need to learn how to make crafting fun and put in senseless whacky random stuff.
- In-game PING meter like gw1. – Everyone would like to know their ping on the main UI like in a corner you could have a small coloured bubble like gw1.
- Dye weapons – PLEEEAAASSSSE!!! Everyone I have spoken with wants this!!! it sucks having a weapon that looks epic but has unmatching or kitten colour(s).
- no stack limit to collectibles in bank. – I have so much iron yet I dont want to sell it amoung other materials and they now eat up bank space etc.
- Money sink casino in-game. – This would be cool if you had a casino in like a crazy place like in the sky that you could do crazy mini games for gold and have a tiny chance to win something worth of value.
- Make dyes ACCOUNT BOUND. – There are so many… … and some are far from cheap… account bound please.
- Dungeon & Jumping Puzzle timers. – You could set up Leaderboards on your site for the fastest dungeon runs on the different modes and the fastest jumping puzzle runs too.
- PHASE OUT SOULBOUND COMPLETELY AND MAKE EVERYTHING ACCOUNTBOUND. – Nuff said…
- Crafting Dynamic Events. – Maybe you could have events players can only do once every 24 hours and they can only do it until they level up once on their crafting profession. Like cooking in some massive epic 5 story high resturant with awesome NPC’s like a french head chef or mining at some old desolate mine and using those special quest item ores to craft armour until armoursmithing levels up once and then u have to wait another 24 hours.
———COMPILATION OF ALL PREVIOUS TOP IDEA’S———
- Preview Armour/Weapons/dye on the trading post. – This would save disappointment for those who are buying for cosmetic reasons only to realise they wasted a small fortune on something they dislike the look of.
- Helper NPCs in storyline quests should be more useful. – This is something you should fix soon. I understand you want the player to feel more powerful and a hero… but really it gets annoying to revive the same NPC’s repeatedly 5 times on the same quest.
- Waypoint costs need readjusting. – You have enough money sinks and +3s per teleport? no no not on. 1s should be max price.
- Add a token collection tap in the bank. – This would not only be convenient, save bank/inventory space but make sense also. Since you collect them making them collectibles.
- Add an LFG channel. – This would me dungeon party finding that more faster and easier.
- Better party group mechanics. – How about seeing who is party leader? Or making someone else leader?
- First person view. – This would add more immersion, get people to explore a lot more and encourage them to take more screenshots.
- Numbers or Percentages on healthbars. – This will add more strategy to your combat and lets the player see the damage they are doing.
- Option to customize own UI. – 99% of players would want this.
- Need a Duelling Mechanic. – 100% of players want this.There have been over 20 times where I have wanted to test my abilities against another player and vice versa.
- Epic Raids once a week. – You could implement epic scale castles, fortresses or zones where players can access once a week as a set time and raid with their guild for some hack and slash mayhem with over 100 enemies and when taken over, can display guild banners or something.
- View Gear of another player – This would make everything more convenient so I don’t have to bug another player bout what his gear is.
- Key Bind 3 Different keybinds. Loot, Resurrect and Interact. – Time after time, I have resurrected a useless NPC instead of looting.
- Face to Face trading like gw1. – There have been countless times where face to face trading like GW1 would have been easier, safer more convenient.
- WvWvW Ground/Water Mounts. – Dying and then walking to the battle is so brutal no feeling on gw2 matches how boring and grindy that feels… I use run skills and then feel worse when they run out. You could add a kitten ghost horse that runs on grounds and water.
- Player Housing. – I can not express at how much this would improve your game. It adds more immersion than the other 90% of the game. It could also be another money sink and you could even sell furniture through your gem store I would love to make my own house in my home instance and make it like a mini castle with statues along a long hallway with armour on them and red carpet with a massive statue of zhaitan as my centrepiece. This will get people to play longer and provide another end-game.
- Barber Shop – Either do what u did with GW1 or put in an in-game barber shop where players mess with hair/facial hair options. If not, a magical guy that allows you to remake your entire characters(without changing race or gender).
- Carry all weapons equipped – This would add a sense of realism and lets you show off all your weapons.
Many people here know cooking isn’t cheap to get up and it is a bit painful to gather all the ingredients. But, that is a part of the game. What if you people put in 24/7 events that are never ending in the main cities where players can go and be a chef or something in a restuarant until they earn a certain amount of xp and then have to wait 24 hours until they can join again.
That way it will help them get their cooking crafting higher by 1 level a day? It would be cool and would help all those who havent got the time or money to level up their crafting skills. sure theoretically people could have all crafting professions maxed to 400 in 400 days without paying a copper. But, 400 days? that is already longer than it would take anyway.
You could even have whacky NPC’s like a french chef or something or for armoursmithing, a big hairy norn guy with some stupid backstory. Well, just an idea.
I think it is cool
