It's not an easy build to use because the dps is very low. You haven't to be focused on enemies but on your group. So forget to chase enemies or to go in wvw alone. Remember to use shouts to cure conditions and don't spam them unless it's necessary.

Remember to buy and use in wvw "quality maintenance oils" and "tarragon stuffed poultry" or better!
