Lady’s and Gentlemen!

Guardians need boons to be powerfull, correct? YES
Guardians feel squishy without them, correct? NO!

Insert allot of troll comments here..

ok, now onto the build!

http://en.gw2codex.com/build/22455-buffing-makes-me-and-you-stronger

go full beserker gear, sigil of rage on the shield and sigil of crit on the scepter
Hammer? i’d say crit sigil aswell.

Q:“sir, your build sucks”
A: the only thing that actualy might “suck” is the low hp-ish

(also, please refer this as the BMMS build, as the name is quite long.. and well.. BMMS sounds catchy!)
ENJOY!

EDIT: You can replace Unscathed Defender with Retaliatory Subconscious, (thanks to Vitu for pointing this out!)

Unscathed Defender; is great if you can manage to keep the boon up.

Very interesting build!
Will test as soon as I get the right gear!

Why a scepter\shield combo and not let’s say, Staff – this baby gets A LOT of boons,

Might be pretty good. Only thing I know I don’t like is Unscathed Defender. Probly the most useless trait in the whole game. You’d be better of just randomly picking one of the other traits to replace it.

Edit: Probly should go Retaliatory Subconscious so you at least get a small heal when the Retaliation boon procs, plus the slight extra damage that comes with it

In certain dungeon (especially Fractals) boss fights, Unscathed Defender is extremely good if you know that you can keep up aegis for a good amount of time (examples: Legendary Archdiviner, Legendary Shaman Lornar, Kholer, Subject Alpha (yes, I pretty much have 80% up time on aegis there with well-timed dodges), Jademaw’s tentacles, Legendary Dredge Suit).

You have to pair with a range weapon if you want to keep up aegis however.

The 25 point trait in virtue only gives a 1% buff for each boon. Granted you can run close to a perm 7% damage buff with this build I think it would be better just to go with the standard 0/0/30/20/20 build with empowering might. You get more damage, more damage for your allies since it applies to 5 of them around you, and also you get healing for all that with AH.

well, not just only 7% but think of the boons that are granted to us(such as quickness) that also adds up

The only things that are considered boons are buffs with the orange tabs, if it has a unique buff icon it is considered a special effect.

Doesn’t seem to add extra damage with stacked boons. Even with all the boons added the damage increase is not noticeable.

What Bash said. Quickness is not a boon.
