What are people’s thoughts on using meditation mastery over purity or strength in numbers in the standard 0/1/6/6/1 bunker? (or the 0/0/2/6/6 I suppose)

The reason being the reduction to of renewed focus’ cooldown to 72s from 90s, now that it is a meditation.

Not as useful, most fights aren’t not going to drag on for that long that you get to use RF multiple times, even at 72 seconds. However if you plan on taking another med(s), than yes it’s more viable.

I always take it. Just to get Smite Condition down to a 16 sec timer.

We don’t need to make mandatory gear treadmills, we make all of it optional

ive been testing it out and i dont see a major increase in survivability but its pretty good. Ill decide later whether ill take it over purity.

for meditation builds, i recommend take knights and play 0/0/6/4/4 and use all 5 meditation.

I’m by no means an expert Guardian but I found that a 0/0/6/4/4 works pretty good on an AH shout/medi hybrid.

Med Mastery, Purity, AH
Superior Aria , Empowering Might
X, Absolute Resolution

I normally take 2 shouts, CoP, RF, and the signet of resolve for extra condi clear. You get plenty of healing, along with personal and team condi clear.

As i said in the op, talking about meta bunker guards here, i.e. 3 shouts. My point is whether it is worth taking med mastery only for rf

It seems ok, I have been trying using merciful intervention as a third utility instead of save yourselves and the CD reduction on 2 skills is nice but against a high condi team purity seems way better (it may just be me being used to playing around the condi removal).

tldr: meh seems ok

I use a similar build for pvp:

and this trait is really usefull but it is not only good for the elite but also for the lower cd on smite condition which is basically spammable like a weapon skill

It’s not generally going to be better than Purity, a free condition clear every 10s is stronger than it seems, it helps you save shouts for your team. The only time I would consider it is if I was going to use another meditation with the elite, which is pretty rare.
