The bread of the build is the weapon passive: you'll need any weapon with the Gourdo's Community Garden skill, I usually use the Basherball since strikers have the highest weapon damage (for other effects).



You see, the passive deals up to thrice your healing in damage, as long as you heal at least 11hp. That damage will help you fill up your skill stacks. Powers that heal on-damage will trigger on the weapon's passive damage, and that healing might trigger the weapon again, leading to funny interactions with other abilities. The more enemies near you, the longer you can hold your skill, and more hits will pop on your ears, so this is best for hunts like Blisterbane Bog, Molded Grave, and maybe Splintershard Cavern.

The butter of the build is our armor: The Wollusk Helmet and any chest piece that creates poison pools. Wollusk Hauberk spawns large and short-lived poison pools on dodge, so it's easier to keep the poison going. Gloop Top Glaze spawns medium/small and long-lived pools on kill, allowing a better pairing with Colossaphire Greaves (Gloop Top also might kill allies summoned by powers that trigger on kill). If you have a friend to create poison pools for you, or you're hunting on Molded Grave, you can pick Bullrog Gauntlets for some more damage.



Wollusk Helmet heals us for up to 70% of the poison damage you take, and poison deals on base 30 damage, that's 21 healing. Not only that, but since you can't heal at full hp, the poison ticks helps you keep the healing going.

And that's the gist of the build: summon poison pool->stand on it->praise the gourdo->???->profit!
