Hi there,
I recently started playing my guardian in WvW a lot. I only play WvW in small groups (2-4 with friends, up to 10 ppl with guild). I don’t solo roam, and I rarely find myself in a big zerg. I don’t have a very specific role in these groups, we usually just run around in borderlands taking small objectives. Until now I’ve been running with a full berserker PvE build, but I think it’s time I switch to something more WvW appropriate. I’ve been looking for a good build for a few days now but I’m having a hard time telling which builds are up to date and suitable for small group play. I found a sticky on this forum (https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/guardian/Guide-World-Vs-World-The-Guardian-and-You) which has a section on small group play. I’ve read that the healway build isn’t as good anymore as it used to be because of some changes to boons (I don’t know exactly what, I haven’t played gw2 in a long time), is this true? For the other two builds it mentions under the small group section, I’m a bit confused by the gear it suggests, which seems to be an unorganized mess of assassins, berserkers, knights, soldiers, and valkyrie gear. Is this on purpose or a mistake? I’d much rather keep it simple and mix 2, max 3 different stat sets. I’d prefer to have all of my trinkets berserkers as I have those ascended. Does anyone know a good build for me which is good for this playstyle and my preferences? Thank you for your time

Thx for the reply! I’ve indeed heard a lot of positive things about the healway build, but I’ve also heard it’s not viable anymore because of recent changes to boons (again, I haven’t played for almost a year, I don’t know exactly which changes). Is there anyone who can tell me if this build is still viable or not?
