Hi guys!
I’m Daniel aka Warangel Eldrith, I’m playing my guardian since early beta and since most people believe that the only way to roam as a guard is with triple medi/traveler runes I wanted to give you guys a little alternative

Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hg4H9wj-QvI

Keep in mind that this is my first GW2 Video and I’m still working things out (getting more/better clips and I’m pretty new to sony vegas aswell^^).
If you guys are interested in more footage or even different builds (ZvZ, roaming etc.) I’m happy to add more videos in the near future.

My stats and traits are in the video and here is my gear setup:
Weapons:
Knights Hammer of Fire
Knights Staff of Bloodlust/Energy

Armor:
Knights with Soldier runes

Trinkets:
Asc. Soldier Amulett/Rings/Backpiece
Exotic Berserker Earrings (working on getting them ascended^^)

Fire sigil > Stamina sigil

thanks for the reply, but i rly dislike just going 5 in radiance – I’d rather have the extra 5% boonduration and virtues cd reduction
and about defenders flame, I know its not that great, but purity is pretty random and I alrdy have 3,3k armor, so Strength in numbers isnt worth it imo.

Fire is more of a ZvZ sigil I know, I forgot to take it out

I have to agree with Silven on this on. An extra 5% boon duration isn’t going to help at all, that’s half a second. Also another 5% virtues reduction is only around 3-4 seconds. Vengeful is only worth using if you put at least 15 into virtues. If you’re using Consecrations, I’d understand putting 10 into virtues, but you’re not. Purity isn’t random, it’s on a 10 second clock.

Justice is Blind on the other hand is one of the best minor traits. Can mitigate a huge amount of damage, and also secures stomps.

Noob question
I never notice but is AH like Strengh in Numbers? It works on you? So everytime you get a boon you heal?
Also, would be Glacial Heart a nice trait to go with too?

Also, loved the Pokemon tone in your video

AH works only on yourself, ~72 heal per boon
Strenght in numbers is +150 toughness on yourself +5 allies
and glacial heart has 30 sec cooldown so its pretty useless :>
the pokemon tone is a remix from lindsey stirling <3

@AgentChaos: I look forward to it =)

Yeah I know but it is for boons applied to allies, what I asked is if it is as Strengh in Numbers, which in this case says 150 toughness to allies but it also applies to you once you enter combat. I allways had the idea that it was only if you applied to allys and because of it I pretty much hated that trait, but if it works on you, as if you are an ally and so it heals you for every boon you apply to yourself, then the situation changes and I kinda like that trait then xD

Anything that says it works on allies, works on you as well.

Strength in Numbers is not considered a boon, so it doesn’t apply Altruistic Healing.

Does that answer your question?

No offense bro but anyone who takes your hammer 1 chain 3 in their face is not worth being shown in your video. Any competent PVPer would have creamed you with your current zerg set up. All you did was show fights vs bads

Props to you for solo roaming on a zerg set up guardian but all you did was reinforce the idea that most people in WvW are so bad they make regular guard NPCs look threatening

Thanks for the feedback!
The thing is, I wanted to show people a different build and way to solo roam around the map (cap camps, kill sentries, cap ruins etc). If you do that you wont meet alot of dedicated duelers that you would meet if you’d go to the new area in the jp or to the south “gvg” area.
I’m still trying to improve myself aswell, maybe the next video will be a pure dueling “montage”, depends on the footage I get

Gotta say elemental vs guard fights are the funnest of all the classes. Had one a few days ago with a HoD ele, fight went on for a while.

She didnt stomp her kills either so we just kept going back and forth for the fun of it.

Normally fights with Eles for me end up with me being stalked by the Ele simply because he cannot accept the fact he can’t kill me and had to run away or die for the last 5 attempts at my life. Eles are annoying as hell.
