A PvP support Firebrand build focusing on healing, cleansing and boon sharing. Generally considered to be one of the '''hardest''' support builds to play due to the sheer amount of available options it has for supporting allies that players have to juggle, but this makes the build great at adapting to any situation when played right. One downside to this however is that your healing is more spread out - sometimes you need to work harder to do burst healing than you would on other builds. Survival can also be more difficult
