To all senior guardian:
I’m here to state my very honor to fight along the glorious force of gaurdian, and also to request some idea from you if you don’t mind to spare your wisdom.

As a new guardian, I believe I have to be tough enough ( in PVE ) to take damage from my enemies and possess the strength to conquer them with my great sword. Here is my current build which I wish to be successful with. Please tell me if you spot fatal mistakes which could cost my life on the battle-field.

I changed the traits around a little bit. Not a bad build you got there but the 20 in virtues won’t do you much good in PvE unless you were going for a spirit weapon build maybe. I added 4 points in Valor for the +200 ferocity (more crit damage) and for the Retributive Armor trait (more precision = more critical hits = more damage). Also the Valor trait line has more to offer statwise over the Virtues line (Toughness + Critical Damage over Boon duration and Virtues CD reduction)

TL;DR
I made it a bit tankier as well as adding more damage

Good luck with your quest of fighting honorably on the battle-field Mr Nameless New Guardian!! xD

Damage on a guardian is about multipliers. I suggest you pop up to the sticky which explains the pve dps guardian in detail.

Instead of removing points from virtues add one more and get more damage per boon. (Multiplier) After the nerf on crit damage virtues are at least as good for damage as valor and bring more support, even though marginally. Boon duration is also nice when moving around in the world.

Add one more point in radiance for more damage on conditioned enemies. (Multiplier)

Just keep 2 points in zeal so you get more damage on burning foes. (multiplier)

If you are going for greatsword as main weapon add in 2 points in zeal for heals and more damage on GS. (Multiplier). Suggest you pair the gs with focus+sword so you get multiple sources of blinds which adds the amount of conditions which increase your damage.

4/5/x/x/5 is a good start imo.

Here is the thread Brutaly is talking about. A lot of good information here: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/guardian/Guide-DPS-Guardian-for-PVE/page/4#post3917471

I would check out a majority of the stickies on the Guardian forum. Its a wealth of knowledge.
