Guild Wars 2

Do I go full offense, or conditions?

Me and my cousin both made tanky builds, and we just played a match which went 0-0.

Should I go for a Rifle/Longbow combo with conditions, and just try and bleed/burn him out? Most physical attacks are either missed, blocked or dodged..

He’s only at 13k health, but he blocks so much and gets about 8k back from his heal that it doesn’t matter.

I’m pretty bad at the controls, tbf.

u went 0-0 because u were both running tanky builds…

‘’ Tanky" you mean bunker? If he is bunker you can’t kill him but he won’t kill you either. Usually when a guard is too tanky I just tell him drop the clerics bro.

I think I’ll try my luck with conditions..I got dual swords for bleed and torment, along with a longbow for burn. Switching to either weapons bleeds close opponents, and I imagine the torment’ll force him to stay a little less mobile.

^ dont use geomancy sigils, use sigils of doom. You should already have no problem stacking lots and lots of bleeds, and the poison from the sigil will greatly help against his healing and is also just another condition hell have to waste a cleanse on

Quickness chews through tanks. I opt for Last Chance, Frenzy or sigils of rage if you dont want to give up a utility slot.

go full glass, trait for short temper and just axe autoattack

you can kill bunker guard if you zerker gs or axe, or easy mode condition

condition just kill bunkers easily

Why this obsession with killing a bunker guard that can’t kill you? Its like fighting a PVT P/D 30 SA thief, troll spec. Pure troll.

And I doubt you can kill them with condis, well it will take 2 hours

If its sPvP, then they can cap rather well, of it’s WvW, they mmmmmight be able to jump in and create havoc in your group and screw stuff up whilst their teammates kill you. Not sure how well guardians can do that though.

Ifs it’s a 1v1, I guess it’s just the fun of figuring out how to beat a build like that.

Yet a warrior can slap on HS, to become tanky like a guard, without the investment, and still deal out the good DEEPS. :P So you telling him to drop the clerics is like someone telling you to drop the HS.

Zerk GS or Axe should work. Or something like sw/sw+LB condi.
