I would like to see some of these trait changes for guardian this upcoming balance patch(prob not but worth a try). I am approaching this from a PvP perspective.

1.Move Glacial Heart back to Valor. With all the dmg/stealth buffs thieves and mesmers got burst guardians could use a little more dps to compete with them.

2. Communual Defense should give you aegis aswell not just allies since its on a 15s ICD.

3.Change Might of the Protector to what it was, no ICD and 1 stack of might per block. Let us decide if we want to use shelter proactively or reactively. Plus it makes for some good counter-play if we time our shelter with a burst properly.

4. Change the damage % of Power of the Virtuous from 1% to 2%. There are 11 total boons, so if its at 2% the most dmg we could get out of it would be 22%, which is never going to happen in pvp, it will probably be around 12-14% buff instead of 6-7%. If you’re a bunker guard you will get more boons but the dmg won’t really mean much anyways so I’d like to see this get buffed.

5. Binding Jeopardy and Retribution should swap places. Retribution fits the zeal theme more of symbols/retal so you would get more use out of it there. Radiance is more of the blind/immobilize theme so binding jeopardy would be better there.

6. Right hand strength should have a cooldown reduction for all one handed weapons not just the sword.

7. Zealous blade should have a 10% dmg buff, not 5%. Gs on burst guardians is very weak compared to mesmer shatters/thief burst.

8.Move Writ of Persistance away from Pure of Voice. Bunker guards should be able to use both not have to pick between the 2.
