You can reduce the cool down of WoR; there is a trait that reduces cooldowns for consecrations. I actually do find it useful in castle sieges – i have managed to get people to kill themselves because of my Wall of reflection. When using it, you need to have good timing.
In WvW i use a Retaliation – Aegis build. Honor and Virtue are my main traits, and I only add 10 to Valor for extra defence. For Weps i use – mace and focus (shield buffs) / sword and shield. For utility skills i use – CoP (really important to use when people try to stun you) ‘Save yourselves’ (adding extra buffs) and WoR (majority of wvw players use range attacks, WoR slows these players down)
I am always in the front lines spamming all my sheild buffs, and act as a distraction.
When defending a wall, I always jump in front of the wall being attacked and use WoR. Its funny seeing the other team getkitten off when i do that. I find it is a good way to protect the wall too.
Even though a Guardian has no effective range abilities, you can be more creative and think of other ways to make good use of its skills.
