Hello all your hybrid guardians. As the question states whats the best Hybrid/Burn build for WvW? One that can transition easily from taking camps (solo or small groups) and fighting large Zerg battles. I dont mind if i have to change around a few accessories or weapons or even traits if needed. Id rather keep the same armor/rune set though.

Thanks

Zerg battles are centered around the GWEN model which has specific builds for each class. Guardian being one of those classes, you won’t be able to just easily switch your build on the fly, you’re going to need different armor and weapons sets. I only know of a few guardian roamers and they all use a meditation build with traveler runes. For zerg battles, you’re going to want an AH build using hoelbrak runes (melandru is popular among people not in a WvW guild.)

GWEN stands for Guardian, Warrior, Elementalist, and Necromancer

for wvw
taking camp solo go with 6,x,6,x,x full carrion
for zerg battle only if you team dont needs you as ah guard go with the same build but stay at the backline as your armor will be very low
take elite tome which proc aoe burning for 4 sec alongside nice direct dmg
for more hit and run (like thief/mesmer) go with 2,6,6,0,0 build with carrion or other combination of power @ condi with gs and sword+focus) but again hit and run as you cant take the hit from the enemy melee

or you can go full dire and get 1.2k burning dmg with low direct dmg which can be 500 so total dps around 1.7k from AA

play with the necros back line
