Hello, brand new to both the game and the class. Decided to play guardian for my main class because I always have enjoyed the paladin arch type in past MMO’s. That being said I was wondering what the most effective leveling build is for the class. Everything I found when googling is 2+ years old and metabattle doesn’t have a leveling build listed. Also any helpful tips or insight into the class would be much appreciated.

Great answers thanks for the info!
So after doing a lot of research on this game and now my class I have a few questions that I haven’t been able to find answers to and was hoping someone would be able to help me out.
1. After reading up on the class I’ve found multiple sources that talk about meta builds, that being said how viable are the other builds? After coming from ESO I’m a bit skeptical when I hear the term play the way want. Yes in ESO you could be a sorc that uses heavy armor and a greatsword but you would do almost no damage and groups wouldn’t even look at you. Is it the same thing here?
2. My second question is about weapon switching, from what I’ve read it seems the ideal 2nd weapon for a thief is a shortbow. That being said when is the opportune time to use this weapon during leveling and PvE. I understand it’s purpose in PvP as it allows you some distance, but I cant for the life of me understand why I would swap to it any other time being that it seems I do less DPS with it.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help shed some light on these subject. Overall I’m loving the game so far, it has kind of the same feel as Final Fantasy does only for some reason I’m enjoying it a lot more.
