Looking for Feedback on my WvW Guardian Build
A few of my thoughts.
It seems that you really want to focus on using 1 handed weapons. In WvW, our 2 handed weapons tend to perform better in large fights because they do more AOE damage instead of single target damage, so you might want to consider switching out sword/torch for greatsword or hammer.
IMO torch is our worst weapon, so I wouldn’t base a build around it. I’d definitely use sword/focus over sword/torch.
If you want to use both wall of reflection and sanctuary as utilities, you should consider going 20 points into the virtues tree to pick up master of consecrations and consecrated ground. These two traits make sanctuary much more useful, as it becomes almost instant cast, lasts 12 seconds, is ground targetable and has reduced cooldown.
Many consider it somewhat mandatory to go to 30 points in the toughness trait tree to get altruistic healing or monk’s focus. They are both very strong self healing traits that are hard to live without if you want to do a lot of tanking.
As for gear, I prefer knights armor and trinkets with ruby jewels.
