Guild Wars 2

So like other tanky support guardians, Ive been running mace/shield. What do you guys think about sword/shield?

I know it lacks the heals, the combo field, and the possible protection via mace #3, but it does have a blind and i would think it does quite a bit more dmg.

Thoughts?

Im not looking to be super tanky or anything I guess, but the mace just feels really weak, and at times I don’t know if the small heals and protection that it is providing is benefiting a group at all. Not to mention, the protection is redundant, as I get that from shield #4, as well as save yourself/hold the line…So really the trade off is a bit of healing.

Thoughts?

Oops so sorry, I thought I posted this in guardian forum. Please move it.

Thanks!
