I’ve been playing since the first Beta Weekend, and Guardian was even my choice of profession since it got revealed.

My character is level 80 and all. But I noticed that I had started to stack only one kind of stat, and that is the Soldier stats, which is Power, Vitality and Toughness.

Everything I got is ‘Soldier’ and I think I should start to balance it out more.

I use Soldier armour, Soldier runes, Soldier weapons, Soldier rings, accessories, amulets and backpack (rings, accessories, amulets and backpacks are only Rare, not Exotic nor Ascended.)

This is the build I use: 0/0/10/30/30
(sword and shield equipped)These are my stats

I pretty much like the traits, using the Virtues line. I used to run 30 points in both Valor and Honour, and 5 points in Virtues, and 5 points in Radiance.

Either way, is everything ‘’perfectly fine’’ or is everything ‘’God such a horrible Guardian you are, I’m glad you came here so we can fix you.’’

Can I balance everything out by only changing my rings, amulets and such? or should I change gear pieces, and weapons too?

TLDR; Everything I got is ‘’of the Soldier’’ and I need to balance out out, my traints are 0/0/10/30/30

What are you trying to accomplish? Are you trying to do as much damage as possible, relieve aggro from your group, have awesome healing capabilities, give support through boons?

Well, I like to support, as seen in the traits, but damage is an important thing in Guild Wars 2, is there someway to stay supportive with boons, and getting rid of conditions, while having somewhat good damage?

If you are happy with your survivability, you can slot Berzerker trinkets with your pvt armor to give a boost to damage output. Ascended berzerker trinkets have the best stat increases in the game. You can also switch up your runes to 2xMonk, 2xWater, 2x minor water for increased boon duration. This way you’ll still have a great deal of armor and health, but with a bit more utility and higher damage output.

Is it worth to remove condition removal using my shouts for increased boon duration?

Well, you can trait Pure of Voice to get the same condition removal as Soldier Runes. I guess it depends on how you want to play. If you enjoy the Soldier runes you have, keep them. If you want longer boon duration, switch them out. It really depends on your trait layout and playstyle, so it’s hard for me to give you advice without knowing the details.

Well, that is true.

I think I got good survival. I easily dodge attacks in dungeons and whatnot. I also change weapons from time to time, I do not always go with sword & shield and a staff, I change from greatsword, to hammer, to everything else as well.

So, I think I might go with Berserker trinkets, maybe that will help to balance out my support, survival and damage more.
