====General Advice====
+
* Maintain uptime on {{Trait|Inspiring Virtue}} with {{Skill|Spear of Justice}}, {{Skill|Wings of Resolve}}, and {{Skill|Shield of Courage}}.
−
* Note that to play this build optimally you must turn off "Melee Attack Assist" in your Options menu. This is so you can stand inside of boss hitboxes.
+
* Use {{Skill|Procession of Blades}}, {{Skill|Sword of Justice}}, and {{Skill|Spear of Justice}} off cooldown.
−
* Your main damage skills are {{Skill|Symbol of Resolution}}, {{Skill|Whirling Wrath}}, {{Skill|Zealot's Defense}}, {{Skill|Ray of Judgment}}, {{Skill|Symbol of Blades}}, {{Skill|Procession of Blades}}, and {{Skill|Dragon's Maw}}. Swap between your weapons using these skills whenever possible, and fill with autoattacks. You should attempt to use {{Skill|Spear of Justice}} and {{Skill|Symbol of Resolution}} right before you use {{Skill|Whirling Wrath}}.  
+
* Use big skills off cooldown and do not interrupt your auto-attack chains.  
−
** Never interrupt your Greatsword or Sword autoattack chains as all the damage is loaded in the last hit.
+
* Keep high uptime on Symbols for {{Tooltip|Vulnerability}} uptime.  
−
* {{Tooltip|Resolution}} is a massive damage boost so you should try to have it up as much as possible. Your main Resolution sources are {{Skill|Symbol of Wrath}}, {{Trait|Healer's Resolution}}, and {{Skill|"Stand Your Ground!"}}. If using the Virtues variant, {{Skill|Spear of Justice}} will provide an enormous boost to your {{Tooltip|Resolution}} uptime as well as significant damage.
+
;Greatsword
−
** If using Virtues, {{Skill|Spear of Justice}} resets off every kill thanks to {{Trait|Renewed Justice}}. You should use it whenever possible.
+
# {{Skill|Symbol of Resolution}}
−
** In long fights you should bring {{Skill|Hallowed Ground}} instead of {{Skill|"Stand Your Ground!"}} for increased {{Tooltip|Resolution}} uptime.
+
# {{Skill|Whirling Wrath}}
−
* If running Zeal, fight enemies in your symbols to get the damage buff from {{Trait|Symbolic Avenger}}.
+
# Fill with {{Skill|Leap of Faith}} and auto-attacks.
−
* You should wait until {{Trait|Inner Fire}} procs before activating {{Skill|Spear of Justice}}

While this opener may not apply in every situation, it is a good general-use rotation to start with. Open on Sword/Focus.

===Defense===
 
===Defense===
−
* You have a ton of {{Tooltip|Resolution}} uptime which helps you against conditions.
+
* Chain {{Skill|Shield of Courage}} and {{Skill|Litany of Wrath}} to cover your opening rotation.
−
* {{Skill|Shield of Wrath}} is a powerful defensive skill. If you stand on top of an ally while this is active it can block attacks for them as well.
+
* Use {{Skill|Wings of Resolve}} to heal and cleanse conditions.  
−
* {{Skill|Spear of Justice}}, {{Skill|Leap of Faith}}, and {{Skill|Symbol of Blades}} blind enemies.
+
* Use {{Skill|Leap of Faith}} to {{Tooltip|Blind}} enemies.
−
* {{Skill|Wall of Reflection}} and {{Skill|Shield of the Avenger}} can be used against projectiles.
+
* Review the defensive skill variants above for more defensive options.
−
*{{Skill|Shield of Courage}} is a block that also gives aegis, protection, Resolution, stability, and a stun break.
 
−
* You can run {{Skill|Shelter}} for more active defense. You can also run {{Skill|Renewed Focus}} but this comes at the cost of one of your best burst damage skills.
 
−
* Remember to always dodge and sidestep attacks if possible. Don't get hit by anything you can move out of.
 
−
 
 
−
 
 
−
===Sustain===
 
−
* This build doesn't have much sustained healing unless you have {{Rune|Superior Rune of Vampirism}}, so avoiding damage is extremely important in long fights. You can run healing food, such as {{food|Scoop of Mintberry Swirl Ice Cream}} in these situations to relieve some pressure.
 
−
* {{Skill|Wings of Resolve}} is a powerful heal and condition cleanse. You can also use {{Skill|Whirling Wrath}} in the light field from your symbols to cleanse conditions.
 
−
 
 
−
 
 
−
===Zerging===
 
−
* When zerging, use your {{Skill|Puncture Shot}}, {{Skill|Deflecting Shot}}, and {{Skill|Symbol of Energy}} to tag mobs. Try to make sure your {{Sigil|Superior Sigil of Fire}} procs on groups so you get credit for all of them.  
 
−
* Against bosses or static groups of mobs (while the zerg isn't moving much), use your higher-damage weapon set such as Greatsword or Sword/Focus.

Best Dps build for Guardian with alot of traps , Easy build

Frostbyte gave this build 5 stars • July 2023
This is an outstanding build: flexible, sustainable and capable of inflicting fearsome damage on one's foes. In my experience, even if you *don't* replace Radiance/Virtues with Honor, you can still hold your own and do some decent damage. This flexibility, coupled with various alternate options in gearing (Berserker's vs. Marauder's/Dragon's and Longbow vs. Sword/Focus) as well as individual traits that can (and should) be swapped depending on context make it a proper "hybrid" build reminiscent of the classic Tank/DPS builds in games like WoW, for instance, and allow for extreme survivability and damage output in almost any situation. My *one* complaint is not with the build itself but rather the fact that certain sections of it have yet to be updated (e.g., the rotation/usage section still sings the praises of Resolution despite it not being used very much since the switch to Honor from Radiance). Thanks to the author. Very solid build that I'd recommend to any Zealous (pardon the pun) Guardian fan.
5 stars
Tao1013 gave this build 5 stars • March 2022
This DH open world build is a lot of fun to play. It's fast-paced and effective and with weapon variants like longbow available, it's flexible too. With two build options, this set up can be played seat of your pants glass cannon style or with the Honour variant it's a bit more tanky, so you won't get caught out if you run into more trouble than you were expecting. It's my build of choice for exploring and engaging in the new E.O.D. open world content and storyline.
