I lost this fight as a burn guard the other day. Was trying to push my current 1v6 record as a burn guard and go for a 1v7 win. Eventually killed 2 and downed 6 but didn’t have what was needed to finish the fight.
Armor I vary between vipers/dire/and trailblazers mix so I didn’t fill it in. Don’t run scepter/zeal, this is bad for roaming. The strength of burn guard is more in how you outsmart your opponent than the actual damage potential. Make them think they are winning and then smash them to pieces.

Well sw/t and gs. There are blanks on that link but it shows the jist of the build.
Runes I run travelers since Anet stoically refuses to give guards a run speed buff. Balthazar are far more powerful if you want to crawl across the map like a dead snail.
