[Before Subclass No More Updated]Ice Castle (Newbie Battleground Warden Tank4 Heal 4 Dps2): Breakdown(Deathmatch) - Hüter Baue PvP - ESO

This build splashes many heals, many debuff, many buffs mainly within 6-8 meter. You and your allies can have a big advantage in this area.

Of course, there is no fool who approaches and attacks the waiting warden without a plan. Your position is important. Flag battle is easy, Rugby is intermediate, Deathmatch is difficult(enemies can escape from your AoE).

Flow

1. Move quickly to strong points or game objective(e.g. a banner)
2. Cast Defensive Stance before battle. ※And, you would better to keep this skill during combat.
3. Set AoE, buff, and debuff Skills WITH GUARDING(Most important point of this build. LA → Skill(Weaving) → Guard( canceling skill animation) is standard.)
4. Bash your closest enemy for Bloodloard's Embrace
5. Mark a strong enemy. Especially keep Frost Clench(Major Maim 5sec)
6. Rescue allies with your ranged heals ( Corrupting Pollen, Living Trellis, Green Lotus ).
7. Tweak your position while in combat. HP30k healer is fragile. Not cutting the enemy's territory deeply, but waiting for the enemy near the forefront position.
8. Swap your weapon and control your resources. resource to guard is your life source.

Piercing Cold (HP30k control)

In Battleground, Bewitched Sugar Skulls and Maturation, Your HP is over 30k when 1H and below 30k when Ice Staff.

If you want to kill, use Staff. If you want to survive, use Shield.

Defensive Stance(with Defeinsive Position set)

The skill can restore magicka anyway. If simply expire, restore 6000. if reflect OR OVERWRITE, restore 2000. It's why I wrote keep the skill. your stamina will not be in vain.

Frost Clench(with Perfected Destructive Impact set)

600 weapon damage, Major Maim, Chilled, Immobilized. Very effective skill for main weapon.

Elemental Susceptibility

35meter long range attack and insta-status damages(Chilled and Concussed, Minor Maim, Minor Brittle, Minor Vulnerability 4sec), and Major Breach 30sec. Surprisingly, it's no cost.

Spam it and sprinkle tons of debuffs. Your resources are for your survival.

Not to forget, Magcika64&LightArmor4's basic attack with Perfected Destructive Impact is a bit painful. I think it's enough as a supporter.

Betty Netch(Blue Betty or Bull Netch)

Morph is depends on your play-style. If you feel lack of stamina, Bull Netch. If you feel magicka, Blue Betty.

Living Trellis / Nature's Grasp ( Nature's Embrace or Bursting Vines )

Living Trellis is Low cost, High Heal, Castable to your ally, And can Insta-Heal.

In BG, sometimes warden must spam it to rescue low health ally. So, Leeching Vines couldn't be recommended.

Nature's Grasp('s both morph) is also good if you don't go solo. It's depends on your play-style.

Shield Disciplin

Auto-blocking is strong. also cost-free Defensive Stance too.

After cast ULT, spam it, and possibly your magicka will be restored to full.

Subterranean Assault

Some players like Deep Fissure rather than it because of Major and Minor Breach.

In this build, Warden is a waiter, not a chaser. Warden has many magicka skills. I think Stamina morph is better.

Gripping Shards(Impaling Shards) / Frozen Retreat

In my opinion, if I were a foe, immobilizing zone would be harder than Winter's Revenge. It's difficult to gank and hit-and-run. 

Depending on game rules, sometimes Gripping Shards is not effective. Swap it for Frozen Retreat. In most case, at least either one is valid.

Main bar/Backup bar

I guess, you would better keep equally your resources. So, you would better make Buff&AoE Skills/Spam-able Skills be assigned to each bar equally.

It's depends. I swap skill's positions frequently.

Curse

I suppose…..Vampire's Undeath is not necessary for this build.

Guard and resource control is more important than damage cut 15%.

Alternative set(5set)

Battalion Defender is tough. But probably you can't keep HP 30k. If you want to be tank.

Alternative set(Monster set)

Baron Zaudrus is for serial killer. if you need to kill and game rules allow you to easily die.

Balorgh is for one-shot-kill. if you need to breakdown the enemy's hard phalanx formation. 

Remind HP bonuses of these. Balorgh is 0, Baron Zaudrus is 600, Chudan is 1200.
