Cheers everyone !
So it is some time that I play gw2, now it will be 2 weeks spent in pvp as a medi guard. I realy like this build and it isn’t that hard to fight other players but…
As my frame per second isn’t that great, I miss some stuff so don’t tell me to dodge more.
Anyway, my point is that: How do I fight scholars ?
For 2 weeks I’ve matched with various people, sadly I see many mesmers, elementalists and necros. People tend to say they are all superior 1v1 but arenas aren’t 1v1 ? Well, if you are superior 1v1 then you are also better in a team fight, considering how necros tank whole teams across the map with that cursed ability, death shroud (perhaps it has its weak spots so you will defend necro’s dignity, but so far I didn’t see any weak spots on necros). Im not even gonna talk about elementalists (d/d especially). Let’s talk about mesmers and their unlimited clones to kitten around with you and I am bored of the same explanation from experienced pvp veterans with glorious 60 fps “geez it’s so easy to spot the real mesmer” for me it is not easy, not yet at least even though illusion’s pattern is simple, the player her/himself can disengage from combat on demand and keep on doing too many illusions to see where he/she is to be found.
I do not write this thread to call for nerf, because I bet that their nerf is imminent at some point. I ask you, how am I supposed to fight them now ? As I said, I run medi marauder with GS and scepter/focus. What are your tactics to counter those foul cloth wearing kittens ?

LAG and FPS issues are hard counter to Medi guard … Playing medi guard feels more or less like playing a thief. Whereas a thief can disengage at will, a medi guard must endure as attempts to disengaging will fail 90% of the time.

Eles are very strong and the latest cele necros are even more annoying. It’s really hard to take em down on a medi guard unless you catch them off cooldowns and burst them strong.

I recommend you attempt other builds . maraurder wouldn’t be much of your friend when you have lag .. should a mesmer have lag the same you you do, he’d also end up dead no matter how op his build is.

Very well, but be it dps or support, there is only burn guard and hammer/staff to go with right ? What are your thoughts fellow dps/support guardians, how are you playing in pvp against scholar classes ?

Thanks ! I’ll hold on to those and test them to see what will fit me best in this current meta.
