Hello, I would like to know any good guardian builds best suited in WvW.I haven’t played guardian that much, so I don’t know how to play him and what to build on him

The build I am looking for would offer me the highest survivability in combats in WvW, meaning that I want my character to be Extremely tanky, having the highest possible health and toughness out of his build, including having some sort of condition removal.
This build should offer me the Highest health and Toughness a guardian can have.

Weapons:Anything melee, literally, I have seen some skills with Guardian’s weapons and so far I liked the hammer, how viable it really is in WvW?( I know I want a full tank build while asking for hammer , but I am thinking of a Hammer/Mace and Shield build that would give me great survivability)

As far as damage and Utility goes, I would like this build to be able to do some damage, even a little(instead of none), while having some kind of Stability and Condition removal to keep me fighting till I fall.

I would also like if you told me the Traits and Skills that fit this playstyle, and it’s pros and cons.

I am sorry for the high numbers of questions I ask, but I haven’t really played Guardian that much and I love that class.Thanks a lot for reading this!!

Hammer is excellent in zergs, not so excellent in small groups, and pretty bad solo. Search for the Healway build, that’s a common one for attrition based solo/small group gameplay and easy to convert to zerg use. It uses sword/greatsword.

Aside from that, full glass meditation builds are common, as are some fairly in-between high toughness/health builds that lack in healing power but tend to have okay damage. Search around the forums some, there’s lots of threads on this.

Well, I am thinking of using a Hammer/Greatsword build with shouts, but I don’t know how well my durability will be.

Try it. There are no silver bullet builds, you won’t know until you give it a shot.
