Q:

hey guys i recently started playing a guardian and i plan to build him for something like WvW roaming in small 2-3 man groups or even winning 1v1 fights by just outtanking the opponents damage and damaging him down with the stacked up might it should be a all-round build
i want to use mainly the staff
and i have no idea how to get the best result for this kind of build
the most important thing i wanna have is tankiness a bit support since i’ll use the staff but decent damage too by stacking might
so i initially thought about something like that:

the second variation i came up with is something like this:

i know the staff isnt supposed to be a offensive weapon but i’d like to give it a try

so basically what im asking is if i should get my damage from the first build by stacking might on critical hit’s OR go more through the power route beeing more tanky and supporting? both build get their damage by focusing on might but i dont know which one is better can you help me? should i mix them up or maybe do something completely different? thanks in advance

A:

For roam with 2/3 player i would recomend hammer or gs with staf.

Bunker on WvW is more suited to hold a few points giving some time, or for soaking frontline damage in larger groups, usually this build cause huge attrition to the group when in small scale combat.
2nd build doesn’t look bad, carry a GS or hammer as main and staff as secondary,

1st April joke, when gw2 receives a “balance” update.
