I have a difficult time picturing guardians not being able to solo supply camps, and have heard that it’s not a good choice with them….I don’t believe that either. Now that I think of it, I really haven’t seen any that have done it… does anyone have a specific build to this? It looks fun and I haven’t been able to find one.

Thanks

There are esey way to do this get all protection shouts with signet of protection so you’ll get 43%less damage for 15 sec
Argo few or all mobs in the camp to a side of the building so range mobs will walk towards you.
Last step DPS with GS and don’t die use your ult if you have to if you are low on health.

It is possible, but you would be unwise to just run into the middle and start hammering away.

Take them a couple at a time.

(And make sure the supervisor doesn’t have Righteous Indignation buffed, otherwise you’re wasting your time)

I routinely solo camps with my Guardian without much difficulty. In fact the scouts give me the biggest problem but “Wall of Reflection” helps there. You have to experiment a bit with each camp to figure out the best way to pull a few at a time but on a freshly flipped camp I can have everyone gone by the time the Supervisor’s buff wears off. Some camps are easy (the easiest being the NW camp in the BLs) some are difficult but they can all be soloed.

Wall of Reflection is the biggest help when soloing camps. Scouts pretty much kill themselves, and you don’t have to worry about stupid blind chain.

its doable, the trick is surviving the inital agro then using your skills and kiting to keep them from all beating on you. Wall of relfection works wonders for the scouts.. Its jsut takes ages.

Dont believe those people, any decent build on any class can solo supply camps. The trick is to not be kitten and pull everything at once, pulling mobs 1 or 2 at a time is possible.

Hammers are typically good a taking out camps quickly in my experience because of the hammer #3 symbol finisher. Even if blinded by the scouts, the intial move might miss, but it’ll still drop a symbol which does damage and will help with blinds the scouts throw at you. Also being able to have retaliation up using hammer #2 in ring of warding or the symbol for the chain finisher gives steady damage to the npcs as well.

Pretty much what I do. Only difference is I drop a Wall of Reflection in the middle.

Haven’t watched the video but when using Healway build i’m normally doing this:

1) Run right trough the camp to gather all NPCs and position myself behind a house/wall/tree to break LoS so the Scouts run towards me instead of firing from range.
2) Kite the NPCs around the house/wall/tree while throwing out attacks every now and then. Retaliation and burning blocks are doing most of the work.
3) Cap the camp.

Takes some minutes to do this but works every time. Against fully upgraded camps it’s tricky because i can’t fight against all of them at once and they usually respawn too fast.

On my tanky boon guardian I tend to just charge in, pull all with greatsword, whirl them, then start running circles around the nice concentrated group of NPCs while whacking away at em.

I have no trouble at all against camps. Pretty much same strategy as everyone else, except for Shield of the Avenger works extremely well combined with WoR. If you have traited consecrations you can use WoR (once it goes down) > SotA (once it goes down) > WoR. I can take down any camps even if they have the neutral NPCs protecting as well.
