what is a good overall stats for wvw solo full medi build to aim for?

Power = ?
Crit chance = ?
Vit = ?
Crit dmg = ?
toughness = ?

Thanks!

Edit: I’m asking because my guardian is going full medi with scepter/shield + sword/focus and has a lot of problems doing enough damage to kill the enemy!
I always feel like I am not doing enough damage during the fight to keep the enemy under pressure. So i am not sure if my own skills are terrible or my stats are not giving me enough damage XD

I have about:

Power = 1800+
Crit chance = 38%
Vit = 1400+
Crit dmg = 189%
toughness = 1700+

Without any buffs I’d recommend a minimum power of 2k, crit chance 40% and crit damage 200% for a Mediguard and I’d drop the shield completely.

Metabattles Meditation DPS Variant works well

For a sword and scepter build I’d recommend going 6 into radiance instead of 6 into honor. Also don’t use shield; it’s absolutely terrible and torch is a much better choice for the ranged nuke alongside the scepter immobilize.

If you DO go 6 into radiance, you really don’t need any more than 30% crit chance because RHS and fury from meditations will allow you to crit enough anyway. Once you get to around 30-40% crit chance, start building power and crit dmg with valkyrie gear (pwr/vit/fer) so that you’ll actually be able to hit hard when you crit.

Thanks for replies guys!
Esp black box. I think this valkyrie thing will work for me!

Yeah, it looks really cool, but you’re honestly just hindering yourself by using it. The nuke from throwing your torch 4 does HUGE damage from range (when it doesn’t bug, at least), especially when paired with the immobilize and vulnerability from scepter 3. Most of the time if you’re crafty enough you can down a thief in his SR with scepter 2 and torch 5 anyway.

Believe me, I really wish guardian shield was worth using, because of how good it looks. But it’s just SO bad.

Another good way to get a thief out of SR is binding blades on greatsword. The projectiles track through stealth.

But, if you’re using two 1handed weapons, torch is the superior offhand in a meditation build. I’d also drop all clerics gear, meditation builds are more focused for dps and not support. The healing power doesn’t do jack for the meditation heals either. If you’re using right hand strength (15% crit chance) you can focus more on valkyrie gear for the extra vitality while still retaining your damage.

Pack runes give 175/125 power/precision with ~50% uptime on fury/swiftness. Can be swapped out for traveler runes for more consistent movement speed at the cost of dps. Fire/Air sigils on sw/f for the dps and bloodlust/energy on sc/t.

Hope that gives you a few ideas to work with. Your focus with a meditation guardian should be on dps while working a bit of survivability in. The valkyrie gear works fine with this build, but might not have enough crit chance with 2handed weapons or if you took the 6 points out of radiance.

True enough shanks!
I decided to go with GS instead and took out radiance 6.
And I found myself with too low crit chance for my liking!
I am currently using precision foods to get higher but i still dont seem to be doing enough damage!

I have swapped out half my cleric armor to valkyrie and once I have more gold I will try changing the rest too!
