Guild Wars 2

I wanted to free roam /1v1 in wvw and need a good build for it my current guardian is lvl 80 with all PVT gear and traits are 0/0/30/30/10. Going all boon build with water/earth/monk runes. Anyone know if this build is okay for free roaming or is it only useful in groups?

your build is very useful for groups, but for solo roaming, it’s a bad idea. Look at it this way: you are taking a tank/support spec that deals relatively little damage, and expecting it to kill people by yourself. at best, you can hold out until someone arrives, but if that someone is another enemy, your life gets a lot tougher, and probably shorter. start out with knight’s armor with beryl upgrades and jewelry and a 10/5/30/20/5 trait spread focusing on meditations. you get much more damage and still retain quite a bit of durability, however your group support plummets (but hey, in a 1v1, it’s just you and the other guy, right?). once you get used to it, feel free to swap out for some zerker pieces and move traits around to fit your playstyle. good starting weapons are gs, hammer, 1h-sword, scepter, focus, and shield. carry a staff to get around, just remember to swap it out for a more appropriate weapon (though i have seen some creative uses with it).

edit: here’s a link to get you started:

cool thanks a lot

You can use your current build so you don’t have to respec on the fly. I would just change out the armor a little bit and roll meditations.

Vigor + Food = 140% endurance regen (can swap to omnomberry for more healing)
Sigil of Energy usable every 10 seconds on weapon swap = an extra dodge.
Might for 10 seconds (internal cd of 2 seconds)

I personally like hammer a lot but it is more group oriented. With Greatsword / S+T you can stay on your target and keep pressure on them. If you feel comfortable after a while, go full berserker minus your weapons to keep that extra health and go stomp people. Your only weakness is bursty thieves (or a bunker ele but what class doesn’t have a weakness against them...).

Wall of Reflect for range or if you are fighting a condition class (necro/mesmer) swap it to Contemplation of Purity.
