I understand that using dodge is very important, but there’s some situations where you’re not going to be able to dodge, so the question is, if you’re unable to dodge at the appropriate time, are you going to be 1 shot?

Not meaning at appropriate dodges on boss fights that are required, meaning any hard hit from any mobs.

That’s the beauty of being a guardian — If we are unable to dodge we’ll in most cases have another trick up our sleeve: shelter, elite, f2-3, etc. That aside, we’re able to constantly maintain vigor with crits and SY if you run it. I personally prefer an energy sigil on my offhand which comes in handy quite a bit.

Very true… Maybe I’m just not used to conserving my dodges cause I’m constantly finding myself out of endurance and virtues and having my elite on cool down lol once I get enough CoF tokens to get full zerker I’ll make the switch :) thanks for the advice guys!! Any other tips on playing guard are very welcome, I’m sure the others on the thread will appreciate it too ^^

How often do you go down? I feel that full zerker would have you going down quite often, especially in the higher level fractals, to the point where the added DPS from full zerker isn’t utilized… A downed or dead guardian does 0 dps… Please, prove me wrong :) Also, how often do you have the lifesteal perk from food, and how much does it heal for? Thanks in advance :D

Hellooo!

I hate to open up an “old” thread but I’m currently running this exact build minus the berserker set up.. I was wondering if you might post what pieces you have berserker / runes / gems / sigils as I’m very interested in making the full convert to what you run. I love my hammer but it’s lacking a bit in the damage and I feel like I’m holding the group back. Currently in full pwr/prec/tou gear will all jewelry and gems stacked Magi (heal/prec/vit) with full Monk’s runes and life steal sigils. The healing is nice but in fractals, I feel that I’m going to be more useful helping knock the boss’ head off than the minor heals I do. (My normal fractal group has a staff support guardian so my heals do practically nothing in comparison) Thanks in advance for the help!!

Hey guys, I read through the entire guide as well as the discussion that follows and the one question I have that wasn’t clearly answered is what jewelry should you go for? If you went Zerkers armor should you go knights jewelry and vice versa? Or should you keep stacking the same, zerker/zerker knights/knights? Just trying to look for the most survivable build while still dealing the massive damage warriors are known for Thanks in advance! (I’ve been using a sword/warhorn bleeds build, and while effective, it doesn’t have the high damage output needed for fotm) ^^
