After the support mesmer nerfs this might just be the new #1 support again. It just does everything. Not the easiest to pick up, even after tempest I struggled with this a lot before I got used to the build but it was worth it. I'm loving the extra mobility of merciful intervention, might be my favorite skill on guard now. Merciful into shield knockback is so satisfying, especially if you get to push enemies off places like clocktower haha, that's the "minigame" I've been enjoying the most recently. I once got someone rallied by knocking an enemy to their deaths with the rez trait proc, priceless.

After several reworks and even more buffs FB is once again viable. Core Guard already has a solid support toolkit and FB makes the class even more versatile while amplifying every strength it's already had. The only downsides are the loss of Renewed Focus (which makes this a bit more punishing to play especially when you can't port to allies with Merciful Intervention) and the loss of shouts/instant virtue F2 means that the reactive condi cleansing is a bit worse, but these are things we can live with.
