Thundercry Blade & Soulshade Umbrella PvP Build
- Decent Damage
- Good Healing
- Incredibly Tanky
- Boring to play
- Slow
Overview
The 
Thundercry Blade pairing with 
Soulshade Umbrella makes for one of the most if not the most tanky builds in the game while remaining a competent damage dealer. This build is perfect for those looking to be the anchor of a team fight or act as a self healing bruiser in solo PVP scenarios. It works best in group fights such as in the guild PVP matches but it can perform well in arenas too.
Martial Arts
Gear
While the Gear part of the build is still under development and more information will come soon, you should use the Rainwhisper + Moonflare set combo and make sure to keep the buff active by weaving in Heavy and Light attacks as needed. This part of the build is still under construction as far as specific stats go.
Inner Way
Morale Chant is one of the best Inner Ways to add both damage and healing as it is easy to stack and keep up with 
Echoes of a Thousand Plants constantly healing you when its active. The 
Adaptive Steel adds extra crit damage to your Charged Skills like the 
Avalanche or 
Galecloud Cleave, 
Battle Anthem adding even more damage once upgraded to affect players. 
Exquisite Scenery adds some much needed extra speed to the Thundercry Blade by letting you deal damage without having to charge up as much.
Mystic Skills
Leaping Toad is a good damaging Mystic Skill that deals good damage quickly but can also be used for its whole combo for even more damage. Regardless, the Leaping Toad also applies a poison which adds another layer of damage. 
Wolflike Frenzy is a great single target skill to knockdown and beat down an enemy. 
Dragon's Breath can be used defensively to block enemies from attacking you upfront while also doing good fire damage. 
Serene Breeze shouldn't be missed either as it breaks CC chains so you can counter.
Rotations
- Begin by activating Echoes of a Thousand Plants on yourself so you can get constantly healed while fighting. Then, swap to the Thundercry Blade with
Dual-Weapon Skill. You can then bait an attack and use 
Predator's Shield to protect yourself while channeling 
Sunrush Gale into a Galecloud Cleave. Then, if you get the chance, carry on the offense with 
Cloud Steps straight into 
Guardian Palm for some serious damage.
