Guild Wars 2

I am currently at level 32 Human. As I am new to this game I had spent my traits points without thinking what does what. I am resetting my traits points from trainer. Total points are showing 22.
Please tell me which is best way to spent traits for making DPS or what will be best for leveling fast guardian. I need to level up to 80 first so need to spent points according to that.

For leveling…. I really don’t know. If you are power leveling I suppose it doesn’t really matter. Maybe go like 10 into honor just for shout reduction since they strong for leveling or 10 into Virtues for master of consecrations, Then like 15 into radiance, to start using that blind spam. Followed 10 into zeal and go for zeal II. Then 10 more into radiance for extra damage vs enemies with condi. Something like that. I really haven’t thought of guardian skill progression as leveling for a long time.

My advice isn’t terrible, its just I haven’t spent anytime thinking of builds under 80. So sorry if I have no clear point in my post.

I leveled my second guardian extremely quickly with a Hammer and Staff. You won’t be able to invest points into your middle traits yet until you’re level 40, but I recommend something like this. After you get 15 in Radiance, 5 in Virtues and 5 in Honor you can really just shotgun your traits all over the board and it won’t matter. What that setup does is give you a very basic Guardian trait synergy which is common in a lot of builds, namely spamming Virtue of Justice every time you kill something (Renewed Justice 15 Radiance) which in turn gives you 3 stacks of Might (Inspired Virtue 5 Virtues), blind everything around you (Justice is Blind 5 Radiance), and give them Vulnerability (Blind Exposure 10 Radiance) all from one ability. Between the permanent Protection from the hammer, and the constant blind spam you’ll be churning out, you’ll be very sturdy in PvE.

Your Utilities are pretty optional but I recommend you keep Stand Your Ground on your bar at all times, as it’s one of our better Stunbreaks as well as a source of Stability to prevent you from being knocked around. Very useful against many types of enemies. Spirit Sword also tends to be more powerful in the early levels than it is in the later levels, so now is a good time to get some use out of it. Lastly, the third slot is really up to you but Purging Flames is great because of its low cooldown, 3 conditions cured, and fire field which you can Blast with Mighty Blow for additional might stacks on a long duration.

The staff is mainly for travel and running away, as well as tagging things in events – its autoattack cleaves 5 targets making it very valuable.

Edited to add: Gear wise, just concentrate on having gear that is at your level. You’ll be going through stuff so quickly the actual stats won’t matter as much. Generally speaking though always look for stuff that at least has Power on it, and preferably Power+Precision, Power+Vitality, or Power+Toughness. Eventually you’ll get access to 3-stat gear around level 55 or so, at which point you want to prioritize Power+Precision+Critical Damage, Power+Precision+Toughness, and Power+Critical Damage+Vitality.
