This has everything you could ask for in a support build: excellent sustain, boon sharing (including multiple sources of stability), damage mitigation, damage prevention (aegis), mass cleansing, AoE healing, anti-projectile, ranged rez and even some CC to peel for allies. Very diverse and powerful toolkit. 2024 update: still the best support in PvP.
This build is really fun for me who was pretty much exclusively playing staff tempest or d/f suports in their respective metas. I enjoy the tanky nature of guardian with stability aegis and protection. I can definitely feel it isn’t as good at surviving conditions as tempest is right now, but it is less susceptible to cc so I think it balances out. Tempest is inherently better right now with the unique aura access but I feel this is a more fun build.
simple and easy to use even for beginners, used this build for the 1st time after years of not playing and got called slurs from enemy team for using this build :( 5/5
This build is absolutely amazing. I'm going the maze route on most matches. I swapped the sigil for Sanctuary. The plays that can be done using this skill in combination with staff 5 and shield 5 are astonishing. If I find myself alone I can stall the decap for a long time with cooldowns and those skills. Signet is too easy to interrupt, so going sanctuary has been a game changer. Can be used to deny the enemy team reviving while I stomp, or to safely resurrect an ally. Deny entry to a capture point and lock off an entire passage for the enemy.
Love this build, this build is not only very enjoyable to play but also very effective.
This is my favorite build, one of the best support builds
best support by far. Nothing hard, just stability, follow your dps, rez and gg autowin
With another nerf on Healbreaker, this build is THE meta support build. It offers insane amounts of healing, condition cure, and general support value, while being incredibly hard to kill. It can almost single handedly shutdown a lot of the common DPS in the current meta by denying their burst for all teammates. Crazy good right now, if you want to win as support there is no better choice.
Edit: Will probably drop in viability after april 6th update
Having played support FB before sever nerfs, I was sceptical at first of this build. But oh boy, was I wrong. Probably the best support in the current meta, core shout guardian offers great healing, damage mitigation, boons, CC, emergency res (I missed you, Signet of Mercy!) ...AND impressive survivability. You can easily handle 2v1 or even 3v1 until help arrives. The build does almost no damage though, but that is actually balance.
Shout support guard has absolutely insane personal sustain as well as great team healing, condition cleanse and boon application. Definitely a meta contender, only difference is it has a lower health pool than some supports so you need to time stuff well, but its not hard. Gonna give it 5 stars but i really recommend you include signet of mercy, renewed focus and possibly even retreat as options since they are equally as good and in some cases even better than the ones listed
