Guardian has some pretty nifty Minor Master traits. Heal on dodge, VoJ recharge on kill, Vuln on symbols, and retaliation on virtues, all super useful abilities thatll get used -alot-…and then there’s the Valor line. Courageous Return, recharge Virtue of Courage on rally. Now don’t get me wrong, its nice to see a little love for VoC, its just..kinda misplaced. Most Guardians are gona put 5 into virtues, and get that protection time whenever they pop VoC. Aegis and protection for the whole party, wow that’s a good defence buff, It’ll help everybody live alot longer and probably save some1 from getting downed…..and this happens when you rally? I mean, it almost makes it seem like we SHOULD try to get knocked down, just so that we can get back up and cast that. Its essentialy rewarding us for doing a bad job, and on its own its very lack luster. On rally traits are great but this is something that effects the WHOLE TEAM. So shouldn’t it be whenever somebody on the team gets helped up? Changing it so that whenever u help revive somebody would be great, but again somebody has to be tossed down for that, and that’s something you just -dont- want to happen, especialy in a pvp situation. So here’s some other things I think could be done with the trait
TLDR heres suggested replacement traits
1.VoC recharge whenever you start reviving somebody (on a CD of course)
2.On Elite
3.On heal
4.Just do it on health threshhold with a CD
5.Have its CD get reduced abit every time you block.
Favorite->6.Have its CD get reduced abit every time you take damage.(I think this is an interesting mechanic that would go great with Valor lines grandmaster traits, It would reward the entire party for the Guardians ability to take and maintain aggro)
If anybody else has some thoughts or comments on this I would like to hear them.
