Guild Wars 2

shaidyn.4016:

I’ve been levelling a Guardian, and though he’s low level, I feel kind of disappointed. It’s not that I dislike the role of a support character (which the Guardian nicely fits), but I feel like my options for questing are limited. I can put on a greatsword, or, I can autoattack mobs to death with another weapon.

Are there any other good weapons or weapon combinations that I’m missing, the primary purpose of which is to kill mobs, rather than to provide assistance to a party that I’m 99% of the time not with?

I have a level 53 Guardian and I haven’t used Greatsword in… like forever! I unlocked the skills, had a good greatsword for 5 levels or so in mid 20s and after that… its mostly been the hammer. I change my second weapon a bit. I had a staff for a bit but just never seemed to be in a situation where it go used much. So I switched to sword and shield and recently it’s sceptre and focus. So now my weapons are Hammer as primary damage dealing weapons + sceptre and focus for ranged damage and other more defensive things. I think I have pretty much forgotten how to use a Greatsword to be honest, its been so long!
