Guild Wars 2

Any advice about it?
For now i playing old meditation-marauder guard, and sometimes burnging DH. But
all this is not effective. Engi, warriors, mesmers, elems, druids, rev’s much stronger.

lol..guardian is worst than ever..

only other weak professions (warrior and thieves) have been pushed above to crazzy (for warrior)levels on last patch …so gardian is now officially and by far the worst profession with huge nerf.

oh please~ don’t be so dramatic… it is not THAT bad lol

finding pro league/esl team as guard would be an issue atm but i think guard will be fine as far as yoloq goes, just play around your weakness and don’t engage fights you can’t win

Play what is ment to be played or whatever Abet wants u to play to be effective, Anet@balance.

Gw2 should receive the shame balance award.

It is just facts…one guard in esl on a team who got obliterated.

You’re wrong to an extent. You can finish your first 2 or 3 entry Divisions with ANY build… getting to Legendary will be more problematic. For Guards, we’ll have issues with Rev, Druid, Ele, Engi comps. These four except for Revs (if we can burst them efficiently at first engagement) will obliterate us unless we can get a +1.

We perform worse in team fights too because Anet nerfed DH based on WvW performances… so now, it’s debatable whether or not to take DH for their team fighting abilities.

Guardians for once are not in a good spot so let’s not sugar coat it.

broadly, i want to say no

there’s only one thing really massive that happened in the meta and that was the removal of merc’s. there’s a broad reduction in the survivabilty of necros and mesmers which could give dragonhunters an opening as a counter to them but i am skeptical. high projectile hate in the meta from scrappers and elementalists will, i think, leave them an unfavorable option

cd reductions on shouts will give the traditional bunker guardians a leg up in the counter condi game but that’s a build that’s not in favor at the moment so it’s up in the air if it’ll stick. again, leaning towards ‘no it won’t’, but i don’t think anyone would mind a pleasant surprise here

burn mediguards will be seriously hampered by no merc’s amulet

power mediguard/non-lb dragonhunter will probably not be in a good place

Only in casualy play, where they can pull off their tricks. In good teams i expect no place for guardians. I did already slaughter them before the nerf so ….

So… looks like I’ll miss 3 spvp season.
dont wanna play another classes. Guard one love <3
but not today, okay anet.

you can still grind to legendary w/ guardian, but you’ll have to play at a prestige x5 level to do it.

I got to legend in both seasons by playing thief, most (complete season 1 and till diamond in season 2) of it playing core build without elite even. Guards are nowhere in as bad position as thieves were in season 1 and 2 even. Compared to season 1 and 2 other classes also became less bunkery which gives guards decent chance vs them. I am NOT sugar coating it, it is reality.

With the 20% damage reduction in true shot, DH are laughably weak now . I played DH in season 2(as one of my 3 classes ) but that spot is now taken by warrior. When I see a DH now it’s just a temporary delay (while I kill him) and then focus on the more dangerous enemy players .

Any advice about it?

Use another class. Is weak since (at least) last summer. After +2500 matches (75% of them with Guard/DH) I give up after the second league and din’t touch him since then. Very happy with Rev at thios moment.
