Guild Wars 2

Looking for a new build. I am level 80 and run with a pure-Cleric/Sapphire Guardian tank. My current build is 0/0/30/30/10 with supporting shouts.

I enjoy tanking, but I’m looking for a bit more variety in my Guardian gameplay, since I don’t play it as much as I do my other classes.

I’d like a hybrid build that I can ease into without having to rebuy/regrind ALL my exotic gear. I’m also willing to look at Karma gear from Orr for those stats if I need to, since I have plenty of extra karma on this toon. (If such is the case, please tell me which vendor I need to go to, it would be much appreciated.)

Thanks guys.

When I first reached 80, I had a similar tanking build. It was slow and it was boring. I worked in more offense not only in gear but through paring down traits in Valour and Honour. Eventually I arrived at a satisfying balance for my preferred content. It was an expensive path to take but I learned alot of Guardians because of it.

If you want to ease into a new build, I would suggest converting your gear with the highest stat values first into Knights/Zerker. I don’t actually have a build to suggest to you though. That’s something you need to find out for yourself based on your style and the content you do.

A less expensive alternative would use your current setup, just changing traits around. I’m guessing you’re swimming in power, but not any other offensive stats, and this build is fine to work with your current gear.

Oh, I like that one.

I tried out the Paladin build, but it lacked decent boon uptime (I prefer shouts over meditations or consecrations) and also didn’t work at all with my stats. That build looks easier to ease into (also closer to my current play style).

Thanks a lot for the suggestion!
