Guardian is the most balanced class, it shines in PvE as full zerker damage dealers with good survivability. It shines in WvW as support/ backbone of the melee train. They shine as roamers as zerker meditation specs. They shine in sPvP as bunkers.
Name me 1 aspect of the game in which guardians aren’t good at? And don’t say as a condition class, even they work for roaming to a certain extent as burning does deal a lot of damage.
It is just as simple as that, guardian has multiple options and performing well.
And don’t discard your 3K health trait too soon, it opens up quite a few new builds that show a lot of potential. First try things out before complaining.
ps.: new traits suck for warrior too and before you complain I am a warrior, I have a guardian aswel which I played in all game modes.
