Support Firebrand WvW Zerg Build

GW2. WvW Build. Support Firebrand WvW Zerg Build. Support Firebrand. Guardian World vs World.



Last Update: May 2024


Support Firebrand is the essential WvW support, giving out plenty of stability, aegis, healing, boons, and even a decent amount of cleansing and utility.

Stability is the most important aspect of this build, and keeping a good uptime of it on your squad requires a rotation between multiple skills. Mostly you want to apply stability right before engaging with enemies, to keep your team from being controlled and to let them use their skills.


  • “Stand Your Ground!”
  • F3 Tome (check internal CD)
  • Skill 5 in F3 Tome
  • Mantra of Liberation
  • Hallowed Ground

Hallowed Ground provides the most stability, but it only pulses it in the vicinity of the spell animation. Use this when your squad needs to hold a position, or place it ahead of where your group will be passing through, otherwise the duration will fall off as your team moves out of it.

While you are moving, use “Stand Your Ground!” because it is a decently low cooldown and has a longer duration for being an instant cast skill.

Mantra of Liberation is low stacks of Stability but provides a quick stun break to allies. Prefer to save and use this to fill in the gaps of stability of your more powerful sources, or for a quick stun break for allies who are already stunned. Giving stability to an ally who is already stunned does not prevent them from being stunned.

Entering the F3 tome will trigger a Stun Break and Stability from the Indomitable Courage trait for your party, but it’s a bit hard to control and very long cooldown, and since you need to trigger this to use your F3 tome’s abilities, you will need to use this early on anyway.

Unbroken Lines (F3 Tome 5) is a casted single stack of stability and Aegis, but can be a nice filler in between situations where you aren’t sure if you need to waste a full stability cooldown or not.

Otherwise rotate through your weapon and tome skills to provide what your party needs:


Healing: Dodge, F2 Tome 4, Staff 2/4

Aegis: Shield 4, Mantra of Solace, F3 Tome 5

Cleanse: Staff 3+2, F2 Tome 2/5, F3 Tome 4 (resistance)
