[Coming from a FB main, this one's obvious.]

@Arken.3725 said:If you ask me Eura, it's more so the symbols than the mantra's. Remember, the main offender is Mantra of Truth(even though it got nerfed). The rest of the mantra's aren't as strong. Symbols provide significant pressure in any given area and while most symbols(outside of axe) that don't keep you in them well enough, mantra of truth helps with that.

But again, gutting symbols would destroy core guards who rely on symbols for tick damage, heals, and other purposes. Since the start of GW2 symbols have been guards signature, unique ability (which is why every weapon has a symbol).

In short, dont destroy core guards who already struggle to keep their place just to get rid of FB. Instead target axe symbol and perhaps remove the stun or cripple in PvP only? Adjust mantras and tomes if need be but again leave core guard out of this.

[Guardian New to WvW]

People have probably asked this, but Im a long time Guard trying WvW for the first time.

I have played much PvP and used many builds but I mostly tank points w/ core guard mace/shield + staff with virtue/valor/honor. But unless Im with a large group Im pretty sure that wont work in WvW.

So far Ive been taking the small camps by using my old PvP meditrapper DH using sword/shield + bow, but with the changes Im curious about what is best to use when playing by myself.
