I know we’re not getting any new weapons this patch, but for the sake of speculation I’d love to see a radical change with the Guardian’s Spec – “Fist” Weapons (i.e. claws/brass knuckles) with powerful new weapon skills, and a solid Trait line but remove the ability to wear Heavy Armour (in favour of light armour only) and we can only wield Fists (which are two handed), Scepter, Staff and Focus (so no Sw/GSw/Hammer/Mace/Shield)
It could look something like this:
Light-armour only
Internal cool-down on virtues are halved (so twice as many aegis, heal and burning on hit)
Meditations, Consecrations and Shouts are improved by 10%
New weapon: Fists
1st skill: Powerful combo, 2nd chain applies vulnerability, 3rd is a quick 3-strike combo
2nd skill: Symbol of Zealotry – Fire-field applies burning on foes, gives quickness to allies
3rd skill: A teleport combined & damage with a stun-break
4th skill: An evade that provides protection to self & allies, and if an enemy attack is evaded nearby enemies are chilled
5th skill: A block. If an attack is blocked, it is countered and enemies take damage and are immobilized
Pretty powerful, but if you consider that you’re sacrificing a good amount of armour as well as our best DPS weapons (Great Sword and Sword) means I think a balance could be struck.
My Norn Guardian would also look kittening boss in Devout Armour punching people
