Hmm, well, first of all, this forum is for checking out builds you already have, not just random giving builds. 's in the rules and all. So if you gave us your current build it would be easier for us to help you.

Second of all, i think there's a problem with the knights armor that makes it not stack. or something like that. If you have money to spare i genuinely recommend changing our the chest and legs at least of your armor into Gladiator's. It's extra energy and more defence against physical attacks.

Lastly, self-healing w/mos are a blight upon teamwork... alone, they probably are best but in teams they oten are a poor choice. You are asking for a build not suirted for teamwork, when guild wars is all ABOUT teamwork. For extra insults please refer to the Gladiator's Arena thread "why everyone using the paladin build should be shot." Or something like that.

I hope you got the asbestos armor from Droknar's, since you used "godly" and "W/Mo" in the same breath. But seriously, there are a ton of builds posted here in this thread already. Just read on...

well you can always use some kinda "godly grief" build like this:

But of course any kinda enchant break will ruin you. Just check the builds directory of this site and find what you are looking for

If you're talking PvE, then you shouldn't be worried about being a tank that heals himself - your group should heal you for you. Monks are monks for a reason, and warriors are warriors for another. Research the tanking builds on this site and experiment around.

Pretty nice tanking build, but can you actually kill someone with it? Especially on that screenshot of yours wherein your surrounded...

Notice his character's name... That build is not for killing anything. Absolutely hilarious.

My god, I just noticed that he's even carrying a Healing Ankh. AIEEE!!!

Explanation on the armor (you can find this elsewhere, but just so you know). The armor level on a piece of armor (ie al 60) is local to the region on your body. So if you aren't wearing a helmet, you boots will not offer any protection to your head. However the absorption effect "this armor reduces damage from attacks" does effect the entire body. If you're wearing the boots that do this effect, it will shield the entire body alone. The problem is, if you are wearing multiple pieces of armor with the same damage reduction modification (such as a full suit of knights or ascalon armor) this effect is not cumulative. You will receive exactly the same absorption bonus wearing a complete set of knights armor as you would wearing just the knights boots. Thus is it generally considered to be wasteful to buy a complete suit of knights/ascalon armor, since other armors are more beneficial, and it is better to, instead, buy a single piece of knights armor (usually boots, maybe gloves).
