Frost warden - Gardien Construire PvP - ESO

unbreakable ice: This build is incredibly tanky, yet still capable of putting out damage with the potential of reaching 6.5k spell damage and 15k pen, all while staying above 30k resistances on your front bar. After some play testing this build I like running the armor weights in 4 heavy 3 light. If you need more pen, you can run 4 light 3 heavy and swap the apprentice mundus for the lover, giving you another 3.6k pen. I do recommend running health poisons over the weapon damage enchant for better sustain and increasing ability costs for your opponent. Between Running poisons and the lover mundus, your spell damage still pushes close to 6k. The 4.3k crit resist might seem overkill but i've come across some hard hitting crit builds and switching to rallying cry on my back bar has made a huge difference. Negating nearly 70% crit damage on top if 40k+ armor truly makes this build fit the name. The 20% cost increase aetherial gives to break free, sprint, and block can be mitigated using the CP system and even in BGs I hardly run into situations where i've run out of stamina. Skills are personal, I like mage's wrath because my warden has always needed a little finishing power and subclassing has allowed for me to finish fights. I have been experimenting with the backlash skill from the dawn's wrath skill line, and I'm loving it. You get minor sorc and 100 weapon/spell damage from sundered (power of the light morph) and it acts similar to an execute with having a second delayed bursts paired with shalks. Everybody is running spec bow so crystalized shield is a must and it's a nice defensive stun if you use the reflect morph. CPs are all personal, cutting defense is an interesting thought with such high resistances.
