Q:

I have a quick question about my guardian build. I am running a shout build that cleanses conditions, coupled with hammer symbolic protection. Here is the build so far. My problem is that I do not know what to do with the last 25 trait points. I am very tempted to put them into Radiance to get Radiant Power (10% dmg vs. foes with a condition, which for this build would result in a permanent increase due to Symbolic exposure), or invest it into Valor for some beefiness and crit dmg. Precision is not an issue as I am currently at 49%, so it is more a questions between getting Radiant power or not. What do you guys think?

Is this for PvP? Cause your listed with PvP armor (solider runes/celestial ammy), and a 25% chance to crit yet you quote a 49% chance so I’m a little confused.

So if you 49% crit in PvP I’m going to assume your probably berserker ammy offensive runes, in which case I’d suggest picking up some defense as your current skills you have a 30 second shelter and a 90 second renewed focus and not much else. 5 in virtues for the boons on activation and 20 in valor (strength in numbers, purity, or even strength of the fallen) should help you here

If your the soldier/celestial, then I’d your probably good to pick up some offense, but I’d suggest either 5 more in zeal (scepter damage when your on swap) and 20 in virtues (condi removal or stability) or just flat out 25 in virtues. I’d also recommend picking up sanctuary to throw on bodies for resing/stomping so either ground targeted consecrations or reduced CD for the adapt major trait (retaliation duration if you don’t want the skill).

If this is for WvW I’ll suggest the same as above and but where I mention sanctuary is useful I’ll suggest Wall of Reflection instead

If this is for PvE, I’d suggest looking at this guide.
