Open world PvE build?
Hello, and welcome back to Tyria!
This may come across as a tad lazy (it’s stickied, shh), but it’s definitely worth checking out: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/guardian/Guide-DPS-Guardian-for-PVE/first
(The second post in that contains a number of builds to check out.)
Since roaming/open PvE generally is low risk, you should have no trouble running one of the builds described in that topic. There’s quite a bit of variety to go for, but the core traits are essentailly always the same.
It relies on blinding your enemies, dodging and dishing out solid damage all around. Lucky for you, greatsword is one of the prime choices in these builds, too!
Lastly, Altruistic Healing has been mostly discarded in the current “meta”. If you are a solo player, and wish to keep that trait line though, the meditations may suit your style better. If nothing else, they are a reliable source of self-healing once traited.
Hope this is of some use! Good luck finding something fun and comfy to play with.
