GW2 Guardian Spvp Support Build

[Rafiki]

I personally prefer to play my Guardian in the supportive / defensive role. Been rolling with and getting used to this build here. I prefer the Runes of Earth, Cleric's Amulet with Soldier's Jewel, and Sigil of Water on staff and mace with leeching on the shield. Weaknesses though are your damage output is kinda crap, so personally only play when your queing as a group imo, with random pugs it can be annoying, got some low hp so high burst / lockdowns can be a pain. But its extremely amazing at node holding, I held keep last night for example when pvping with Chook, Triage, and Kali, for a long time til they rezzed and still didn't die, was about a 1v4 (Guardians for the win) and has great support both offensively and defensively.

Was pvping with a few guildies a bit ago, decided I would drop the support build for a few games an try a greatsword out for change, I personally never touched it back in the betas so I didn't know how effective it was. Did a Greatsword / Scepter + Shield build, and it turned out to be pretty legit for the random Spvp pickup games. My damage output was nice and the survivability was great, managed to fight Chook and about 2 or 3 of his teammates, plus kite them away to get back to my group. The traits, runes and sigils aren't set in stone for myself just yet, Chook grouped up with Tribune and they was waiting for me so I literally just kinda through stuff where ever looked good and etc lol.
