Dude this build really does slap, I almost got the same setup you do except the weapons. It's really good in pvp as well. This is by far my favorite build
Hi, i'm also playing GS/Wand. Great at soloing stronger targets in PVE with incredible sustain. In group I'm mostly player as the healer. IMO you should really consider using the Greatsword Blood Devotion ability, not particularly for the damage transfer but for the added damage for the whole group after you spec 3 talents in it (groupwide/duration/damage add). During some phases of bossfights this can really add up. Wand/GS as healer is underestimated imp in pvp groupfights. I'm wearing pretty high defense, have a Dash mobility skill and I have 2 instant stuns and a knockdown.
Dude I'm running your DPS paladin build and it's so good. This looks like a fun alternative for healing. Any plans to make a tank build? GS has some aggro specializations for some skills.
Hello ! Your guides are quite interesting! Im constantly moving between sns wand and sns gs , and maybe gs wand can be something ! Can it be viable with 2.5k CP ?
I was running this, but after playing 2 stars, I've taken it out. Those dungeons do a lot of damage and unless you have a reliable team, using Devotion is going to get you killed. Had a tank die when using it, and when I died after using it, it resulted in me getting kicked 😐 Not sure it's worth the headache just because others don't know how to Q block
Whats the best way to get purple upgrade stones, ive got 2 max purples but its so bard to get more stones to upgrade unless im not doing something right
i have somewhat the same healer build but i use Will breaker instead of Frost Cleaving, Time for Punishment instead of Blessed Barrier and Curse Explosion instead of Death Blow. I'm thinking of bringing in more support with Will Breaker and Time for Punishment as it will boost the dps on the bosses/mobs. I use curse explosion because I'm already using Touch of Despair, so might as well use Curse explosion to maximize the dps. Dunno if C.E is optimal but that's what i went with. I'll try out your build too, since I love your using aoe build a lot too.
Willbreaker is a really good option instead of Frost Cleaving for bosses, I probably should have mentioned that when I talked about Time for Punishment. For everything else though, I like Frost Cleaving just because of how much healing/damage it can do against mobs. To me Curse Explosion seems a bit difficult to make work in this build due to how many points you need for the specializations in itself and Touch of Despair. Also there's no Corrupted Magic Circle so it'll do less damage.
Unless you're focusing purely on arena or small scale skirmishes, wand/gs is not great in large scale/gvg, I wouldn't recommend it at least for T1. gs in general for large scale can have a very hard time getting value without setup or dagger to make your own setup.
Added a gameplay video in the description for those interested

Thanks for the info! Running a paladin build as well. Always good to get a different perspective!

Do you have any new updates/changes now that they've added the Fortitude stat? Thanks!

You're not using the skill debuff skill? That one seems more useful then the first weaken
I love your build ! However I think you should run fully upgraded blood devotion, the 50 base damage is HUGE

Can you put a POV of you as Healer into T2 DG ? :D I would love to see that !

can i change Touch Of Despair with a greatsword skill? Meybe Tornado ?
touch of despair is your activator for vampiric contract so that wouldn't work well
Pvp?
