Guild Wars 2

Up until Tues, my guardian felt pretty solid in WvW with a 0/0/10/30/30 build. After 4ish days, I am looking at changing out how I am built. Any suggestions for a bunker/heal build that can handle 1v1s also? I end up slapping yaks a lot.

Thanks ahead of time.

Any bunker build with soldier stats can handle 1v1 with no troubles, especially when killing yaks.

I personally run 0/5/30/30/5, with main focus on AH and Empowering Might/Pure of Voice. I use a mix of Soldier’s and Knight’s gear with (mostly) Ruby Gems, and with it I hit 3K Armour, 40% Crit, 70% Crit Damage, and 17000 HP.

For abilities I run Stand Your Ground, Save Yourself, and whatever I feel like rocking that day (tons of conditions? CoP. Some roamer group of friends? Hold the Line).

It’s a pretty tanky set while doing good damage, and all my shouts/buffs do double duty of Buffing/Cleansing my team while I get a steady flow of heals coming in. Of course, this build tends to have difficulties when Im soloing things in WvW, but any buff applied to yourself still triggers AH so the core mechanics still work. My friends love having me around, and I like feeling like I made an impact.

As for weapons, that’s preference. I usually rock Hammer/Staff but lately I’ve been using Hammer/Greatsword for roaming with friends.

hi mate, I really like the sound of your build but I’m really struggling to work out how to get to your ‘numbers’ (no ascended stuff yet). Would you mind adding a link to your full build? ta
