Build:
http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fVAQJARSlsApaolDxbI8DRRDBljNY/hjnhrPQCCAA-TJxHABD8EAOb/BjLDAwlAAA

GS/Hammer
Energy/Battle sigils on both
Traveler’s Runes
Knight’s Amulet

0/1/6/6/1

Is this build good for sPvP? I seem to deal enough damage but not enough to take down pure bunkers, and I can stall 2-3 people for pretty long. Disengaging is also not a problem with gs3 + hammer5, dual energy sigils and traveler’s runes.

I’m considering doing 0/6/6/4 and take out two handed mastery for the additional might duration and condition cleanse from absolute resolution. Knight amulet also seems to give me much better sustain which helps me kill people, albeit a bit slower. Should I change either of these?

Another question I wanna ask is: why people don’t run resolute healer? It’s really very useful for the knockback, I’ve denied many stomps from this trait. Am I missing something?

In PvP never use 2 Two-handed weapons in the same build as a guardian. One set should always have Focus off-hand.

Currently, you have the trait point distribution of a bunker guard, with the weapons of a DPS and the wrong amulet.

Resolute Healer is actively used by bunker guardians, but not DPS ones.

For DPS I’d recommend this: http://metabattle.com/wiki/Build:Guardian_-_Meditation_DPS_Variant

And in general if you’re looking for builds use metabattle

Yeah that’s what I’ve been seeing people use, but I don’t know why!

can you explain?
