Guild Wars 2

I am having issues deal with the new way that mobs in the living story and events that anet is putting out to the effect I go down in a matter of seconds unless I run and even then still I go in the down state often.

Sadly there is no open world or living world builds that I saw list, while I like my beserker set and build I tend to go in down state or death quite often in the living stories being released in season 2 and in the new zone.

So my question is there a gear set I could buy that would help immensely with my survivability and still keep decent dps against bosses like aerin and trash mobs like the veteran inquest that like to teleport and throw around a lot of dots and disables.

Try a build like this

When I leveled the Guardian I had the impression that he profits the most of utility skills and field+finisher combos. So this build is most about cd reduction traits and a bunch of condition removing possibilities. Virtues VI lets Purging Flames last 6 seconds – enough time to use Focus #5 to get might, swap to GS, #3 to get Fire Shield and #2 to do additional burning damage. Wait until #3 and #2 is available again and then GS #4 + retaliation combos. Then swap back to S+F, wait for the cds and repeat. In case of low HP use the Elite Tome and skill #5 to fully heal you up. Don’t wait the full 20 sec but after the heal swap to the normal weapons.

Thanks for sharing.

Interesting build any recommendations on weapons and gear or should I stick to my berserkers set and trinkets or mix it up a bit?

I’d say try it with the gear you already have and if you face heavy troubles mix in some more defensive ones.
