Guild Wars 2

Hello everyone,

I’ve just got my guardian to 80 last night and I’d like to get some gear at last. Thing is I intend to use this character in both PvE and WvWvW. And I know that, ideally, I should get 2 sets of armour and weapons for each mode, but that’s more than I intend to spend (plus I’d run into inventory issues). Therefore, I am looking for something rather balanced and flexible.

I’ll probably be doing some exploring and world events, with a dungeon or two in between as far as PvE goes. I favour a more offensive build and I plan to use greatsword or hammer coupled with a staff. For WvWvW, I’m looking for something that’s durable enough but which can do decent damage as well. I run solo, so I won’t rely on anyone else, unless I join the zerg, of course.

I’m mostly looking for help mix and matching the gear, as I’ll change the traits depending on what I do. Thanks for taking the time to read this and looking forward to the suggestions.

For PVE tho you should switch utilities an traits found in obals hammer build guide. Since you can now switch traits anywhere, and for free its not a big deal

Thanks for the suggestion, I’ll give it a try.

In terms of armor type in WvW I went Power-toughness-Vitality. Coupled with all the boons we get you can hit hard and take a beating, plus brush off conditions. I use rune of the soldier. with GS/Staff

PVE I love full berserker. With all the boons and healing we do, once again you won’t be a squishy as other professions that go full berserker.

This is what I use for WvW, works well (Videos in my sig link)
