I’ve been running this build for a while now, I find myself winning the majority of 1v1’s i encounter and half of the 2v1’s I do. I posted this to see if anyone has any improvements they would make to it.

That build has a lot of problems in it, and the first problem to mention would be runes.
It should come as no surprise that Rune of Fighter is bad – last bonus only grants 1, single, stack of might for 20 seconds. That’s 35 power and 35 condition damage, can be removed, and is not even permanent. Just about any other rune would be far more stronger – I would bring Lyssa Runes as an example, the ones I’m using myself for that purpose. Power and Precision are basically equal contenders, at least that’s how it should be in a good build, so Fighter gives extra 50 toughness and a might stack, meanwhile Lyssa gives 10% condition duration, extra boon on heal for 10 seconds(worse than (6) on fighter if you get might – better than (6) on fighter if you get anything else), and that’s already about even now. Needless to say, last bonus on Lyssa cures all conditions and gives all boons on elite usage… It’s a shame how a SINGLE might stack on Heal is compared to that in usefulness.
Get Ascended Gear, seriously, that doesn’t come as a major point but yeah.
You have too much critical damage and too little precision. Getting more precision(and power) and less critical damage would be more beneficial to your damage output.
Given how you try to utilize all stats but condition damage, consider getting some Celestial gear and then adjusting stats with non-celestial pieces to get better stats overall.
Extra points in Valor(all the way down to 30) aren’t worth it, and Altruistic Healing is horrible given how your build provides a very limited amount of boons(from a Guardian point of view). Compare that to usefulness of (5) in Radiance and (5) in Virtues… It’s not even funny.
You lack condition removal severely. You can pick them one by one, but without Absolute Resolution and Contemplation of Purity(Or, Lyssa Runes), condition’s are going to kill you if you play against a condition-based player.
It seems to me you’re the one who gets 1v2’ed and 1v3’ed, at least that’s what I would do on my Guardian. Then again, most playerbase in WvW is horribly bad, so…

a good player can go without traits period, and still win the majority of 1v1’s if they play it right, i’ve seen it happen, i’ve also seen no armor period, and someone still do a 2v1, thank u for build advice though, twas helpful

the reason i used exotic gear is because there are a majority of players who does not have any ascended

PrZone,

With any build I would always ask, “What am I trying to accomplish?”

And winning 1vX is a testiment to not only your skills but also the other players’ skills.

Weaknesses in your build would include condi removal.

so even with PoV, purity, and signet of resolve… it doesn’t have enough condi removal?
