Guild Wars 2

So I’ve reached lvl 80 and I’ve been running a 0/0/20/30/20 trait build with my PvE Guardian. I love the Nightmare armor look and would really like to incorporate it into my final exotic armor build. Thing is I’m not sure how. My skills are fairly shout based and I was wondering if you guys have any suggestions on how I should go about this. I was also thinking of using Superior soldier runes with the armor. Also I normally use a GS/staff, sometimes switching to a scepter-torch for range.
Worst case scenario, I was thinking of transmuting the skin over a Draconic Knights set

Just transmute it. I have both draconic knights and berserkers and all of the pieces are transmuted.

Yeh transmute it

I have Berserker set transmuted with Human Culture armor, Knight set with Flame Legion armor, and Explorer set I’m going for Nightmare Armor as well
