Summary
Throne And Libertygives players many different roles to take on. They can man the frontlines to soak up damage and control the aggro as a tank, focus on dropping targets as fast as possible as a DPS, or make sure their allies have everything they need when they need it as a Support. Different support builds will work better in different game modes.
Thebest Support builds inThrone And Libertywill involve tanking up the Wand and Sword, but the Longbow makes for the second best choice. There are plenty of builds that make use of at least one of these weapons, as well as one build that makes use of both.

Wand And Tome + Daggers
When it comes to thebestThrone and LibertySupport builds, having a challenging class to play can mean not being there when one’s allies need them the most. As such, beginners are better off with an easier option to play. This class has access to a wide range of features besides the usual healing of allies and providing crowd control.The usage of Daggersgrants a lot of escape options when in danger. However, this class has some problem areas that players will need to address if they wish to be effective with it.
The first is how glassy it can be, with it not taking much to put this class into the danger zone. Players will always want to be near allies that can pull the aggro from them and keep them safe. Next, players will rapidly run out of mana, so having the right gear is imperative to help with this. Players' limited mana means that they cannot afford to always be going full throttle, as they may find themselves needing to tap into their mana to make a hasty retreat. This is still an easy class to pick up and start using, so players can practice overcoming these problem areas and be effective Supports for their allies.
4Invocator
Wand And Tome + Staff
This build will shine best inGuild vs. Guildevents, such asCastle Siege. This build will decimate mana if left unchecked, so players are going to want to heavily invest in their Wisdom Stat. With this build, players will have many tricks up their sleeves that will allow them to adapt to anything the enemy guild may try, like having truly outstanding prowess for both their healing and crowd control.
This build does not do so well in other game modes and may struggle in many other areas of the game. As such, players who enjoy how this build looks might want to try it out down the line. Realistically, they should start by creating an easier character to learn the game, level up, and then look into this build if theyenjoy GvG aspects of the game.
3Warden
Longbow + Sword And Shield
The Warden is a great choice for newcomers thanks to theSword and Shield Skills it offers. It lets players play as either a tank or a support by changing between different Skill loadouts, but when used together, it creates a great backrow healer. The class is easier to play if the player swaps out the Longbow for the Sword and Shield, but this does come with a cost — it being not as versatile.
Players who take this build in a more tanky direction will find it not as tanky asif they had a Greatswordwith them. This makes it a build that is great for exploring different playstyles and having fun. However, once players wish to take things to the next level, they are going to want to find a different weapon pairing.
2Seeker
Wand And Tome + Longbow
There are not a lot of Support options out there forThrone and Liberty, since there are only two weapons suited for the job. The first is the Longbow, and the second is the Wand and Tome. Combining these two weapons together can result in one of the hardest Support builds in the game, but it will bring the most to the table. This build will have everything a support needs to crowd control enemies, heal groups of allies, or pour its healing into a single frontliner.
The Longbow also lets the user use their own life as a resource to get more mana when they need it most. A skilled player with this combo is capable of providing some of the best support in the game. However, its high difficulty to play makes this a class that demands perfection, and newcomers will surely struggle to enjoy this class. Players that struggle with harder classes, might want toconsider remapping their keys.
1Templar
Wand And Tome + Sword And Shield
Looking for thebest Wand and Tome Buildswill haveThrone and Libertyplayers coming across varying playstyles. A lot of Support characters fall into the glassy category, but not Templars. Like Wardens, they make use of the Sword and Shield weapon to grant them an incredible boost to their survivability — this comes at the cost of dealing low amounts of damage in return. This buildshines particularly well in Small Scale PvPas opposed to large scale.
Players with these two weapons can focus on keeping their allies and themselves always topped up and in the fight. In fact, they do such a good job that they are shining examples of top level Supports as both a PvE and as a PvP build. Players should not try to level up solo with this build; they will want some friends along to help make things go by quickly — with one preferably beinga DPS build to speed through dungeons.
