The whole idea of this build is to preserve might while supporting party and doing good damage. Might comes from: Empowering Might (Nearby allies gain might for 5s when you land a critical hit) which means when you have enough crit-chance you can pop might all the time. Being one of the best and most overpower boon of the game this build provides high dmg to whole party boosting power and condition damage.

1.Armor – Weapons – Upgrade Components
2.Skills-Traits
3.Trinkets-Buffs

• Armor:

Knight’s Armor is the best option giving you Power for damage, Precision helping you maintain might and Toughness which scales well with Retributive Armor (5% of toughness is given as a bonus to precision) for extra crit-chance.
Can also go with Cavalier’s or Berserk’s set.

Pure Stats from Knight’s Armor(without Traits):
Power: 224
Precision: 224
Toughness: 315
Defense: 1211
Critical Chance: 14.67%

• Armor Upgrades (Runes):

As for Armor Upgrades choosing full Superior Rune of the Soldier for (6): Shouts remove a condition works well with Signet of Resolve Passive (Cures a condition every ten seconds) and Smite Condition (Cure a condition…)which means that every skill remove a condition increasing your survivability.
If you want to change your skills or boost your your damage over your survivability Rune of Strength is a great choice might duration, extra power and (+5% damage while under the effects of might) it’s great idea. A bit more tanky is Rune of Hoelbrak same as Rune of Strength with only difference giving you (-20% condition duration applied to you) as Bonus (6).

• Weapons:

Main Hand
Sword serves very well this build. With sword’s auto attack hitting multiple enemies, fast attack speed and third’s auto attack ability Sword Wave (who hits 3 times) giving you crazy critical hits. Third ability Zealot’s Defense giving you also great crit hits (hiting 8 times) while providing you with blocking range attacks.
Off Hand
I choose Shield because of Honorable Shield (Gain +90 Toughness when wielding a shield and reduce the cooldown on Shield skills by 20%).Toughness gives Damage Reduction and Precision Retributive Armor (5% of toughness is given as a bonus to precision) so why not.
Swap Weapon
Staff for Empower (12 stacks of Might), healing and movement speed. Controls enemies with wards and AoE damage and supports allies with defensive spells.

• Weapon Upgrades (Sigils):

For Active Set Superior Sigil of Battle (You gain 3 stacks of might for 20 seconds when you swap to this weapon while in combat) and Superior Sigil of Strength (30% chance to apply might for 10 seconds on critical) changing weapon while in combat going from staff to sword after using Empower you have 15 stacks with increased timer, plus chance with every crit to get might.
Alternative Set Superior Sigil of Perception (You gain +10 precision each time you kill a foe).

Never ending might.

Third Part

• Skill Slots:

1. Healing:
   Signet of Resolve (32 sec. CD) – (1 sec. Cast)
   Signet Passive: Cures a condition every ten seconds
   Signet Active: Heal yourself
   Healing: 8435 (1.25)
   Signet of Resolve with 32 sec CD because of Signet Mastery: Signets recharge 20% faster makes it the most viable.
2. Utility:
   1. Signet of Judgment (16 sec. CD) – (¼ sec. Cast)
   Signet Passive: Reduces incoming damage by 10%.
   Signet Active: Grant retaliation to nearby allies and weakness to nearby foes.
   Retaliation (3s): Deals 343 damage to attacker when hit
   Weakness (5s): -50% Endurance Regeneration, 50% of non-critical hits deal 50% damage
   Range: 600
   The short range and the lack of better Boons makes it better to keep it for the passive “Reduces incoming damage by 10%”.
   2. Hold the Line (28 sec. CD) – (0 sec. Cast)
   Shout. Grant protection and regeneration to allies.
   Protection (4s): -33% Incoming Damage
   Regeneration (6s): 954 Heal
   Range: 600
   28 sec CD makes it perfect for Protection boon and Regeneration.Plus every Shout removes a Condition.
   3. Save Yourselves! (48 sec. CD) – (0 sec. Cast)
   Shout. Draw conditions from nearby allies to yourself. Gain multiple boons for a short duration.
   Fury (10s): 20% Critical Chance
   Vigor (10s): 100% Endurance Regeneration
   Might (10s): 35 Power; 35 Condition Damage
   Protection (10s): -33% Incoming Damage

   Swiftness (10s): 33% Movement Speed
   Retaliation (3s): Deals 336 damage to attacker when hit
   Breaks Stun
   Range: 600
   Also Choosing any other shout just like Stand Your Ground for Stability is a great idea and better occasionally.
3. Elite:
   Tome of Courage (180 sec. CD) – (1 sec. Cast)
   Tome. Summon an ancient tome that grants you powerful support spells. Increases vitality and toughness by 916 for the duration.
   Protection (20s): -33% Incoming Damage

Remake scepter…yes making auto-attack faster

U can also check my build:
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/guardian/Guardian-Tank-Crit-Build/first#post1790873

which boost crit chance a little.

My Tank-Crit PvE Build: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/guardian/Guardian-Tank-Crit-Build/first#post1790873

Well, new to tank guardian I’m here to share some thoughts and discuss the possibility of a crit/tank build.Going through this way cus none of us want the main trinity of a tank-support-dps.My main focus is a tank with a descent crit chance.
My Build: http://gw2buildcraft.com/calculator/guardian/?3.3|9.1d.h1.e.1d.h1h|2.1c.h1j|1n.7x.1n.7x.1n.7x.1n.7x.1n.7x.1n.7x|1c.9c.3u.e17.1c.9c.1c.9c.1c.9c.1c.9c|0.u29b.u679.a2.0|3t.1|v.1b.16.18.1j|e

• Armor:
  Choosing Knight’s Armor for Toughness scaling well with Retributive Armor 5% of toughness is given as a bonus to precision(Guardian’s Trait)
  Personally I prefer full Knight’s Draconic Armor cus it’s easier to obtain through crafting costing 15-20g average (TP mats).
  Pure Stats from Armor(without Traits):
  Power: 224
  Precision: 224
  Toughness: 315
  Defense: 1211
  Critical Chance: 14.67%
• Armor Upgrades:
  As for Armor Upgrades choosing full Superior Rune of the Soldier for (6): Shouts remove a condition works well with Inscribed Removal Using a signet cures a condition on youNo conditions again.
  For low budget you can go for:Crest of the Soldier.
• Trinkets:
  For trinkets I personally prefer Soldiers one.Granting bonus power with toughness and vitality Superior Sharpening Stone Gain power equal to 6% of your toughness
  Gain power equal to 4% of your vitality .For every non Ascended Trinket I obtain it via karma (42k per item) and I upgrade it with Crest of the Soldier.

1. Amulet: (+90 power, +64 toughness, +64 vitality) u can mix and match what ever you want, not big deal.I personally believe Ascended is the best in slot.
2. Rings: (+103 power, +68 toughness, +68 vitality) Ascended with def vitality Infusions
3. Accessories: (+56 power, +40 toughness, +40 vitality) same with Amulet, I have the same myself finding Ascended one way to hard to get.(/sigh lazy)
4. Back: (+22 power, +16 toughness, +16 vitality) Soldiers

• Weapons:

1. Main Hand: Mace
   Going with mace for two reasons Symbol of Faith and Protector’s Strike
2. Off Hand: Shield
3. Swapping weapon: Hammer-Staff .I like staff more than Hammer finding AoE event Farm easier.Wiki says:Controls enemies with wards and AoE damage and supports allies with defensive spells.(I see only supportive skills but anyway).
4. I’m Running all Shaman weapon type for huge Vitality and minor healing power.

• Sigils:

1. Main hand: Superior Sigil of Accuracy +5% critical chance
2. Off Hand: Superior Sigil of Battle You gain 3 stacks of might for 20 seconds when you swap to this weapon while in combat.I need to change it considering for Superior Sigil of Water
3. Swapping Weapon: Superior Sigil of Energy While I find it useful in many cases. Also good for a off hand sigil.
