Magi/Minstrel/Harrier
(In WvW, must be Minstrel.)
Wash the Pain Away, Feel the Burn, Flash-Freeze, Free slot, Rebound.
The free slot can be...
- Arcane Wave - blast your own ice field for an extra Frost Aura
- Aftershock! - same as above with Magnetic Aura, but on a higher cooldown
- A Cantrip - up to you
Matthias/Cairn "Carry"/WvW[edit]
The point of this build is either to:
- Res from afar at Cairn while kiting shards or
- Trivialize the first two phases of Matthias (cleansing , while reviving people through wells.
- Carry friends through WvW
If you choose to take Runes of the trooper instead of runes of the monk
- Shame on you
- Take Water 333 instead of 331
Water: 331
Stop, Drop, and Roll - remove a free condi or 2 since you'll be dodging anyway
Aquamancer's Training - you'll be camping water
Cleansing Water - you'll be spamming regen.
Arcane: 211
Renewing Stamina - Vigor on you is more useful than vulnerability.
Arcane Resurrection / Final Shielding - Could go either way. Free stun break+blocks or free fast-res. I prefer Arcane Resurrection.
Evasive Arcana - Non-optional. Dodging in water will heal and cleanse conditions.
Tempest: [1/2]23
Gale Song / Latent Stamina - Could go either way. Free stun break or more dodges for your sub-squad. I prefer Gale Song.
