So I built a nearly identical core burn Guardian a few years ago, and I just gotta say, after a 3 year hiatus, it was so glorious finding this video of yours to remind myself how to play it. One tweak to the traits I picked based on your choice, and bam, I'm an unstoppable fire machine. Take my sub and all of my likes. Looking forward to my Soulbeast when it gets to 80, and finally picking a build I like enough to main. Cheers, friend.
@@MindOverMeta Your build structure is solid, your intros are gold, and most importantly, every single video is timestamped, and your voice is relaxing. I'll be recommending you to all of my friends I just got into the game with my return. Thank you so much.
Man I loved the idea of the channel, as someone who gives a F about the meta and try to use stuff that feels fun I will love getting ideas from your gameplay not based on "This is optimal"
Hey! I tried your build. Went doing most of the hero pints in POF with it to get an elite spec.. Just blasted them to pieces! Thanks for sharing. You just gained a subscriber :)
Excellent tutorial, well made video too. 38.10 , simple build to play, yes, that's me, i enjoy playing GW2, but don't want to spend months perfecting skills and game play, cheers
Thanks for this build guide! This is exactly what I've been looking for as a returning player (haven't played since HoT and beginning of Season 3). This time around I want to play my guardian "alt" instead of my condi reaper "main" that I played previously. My guardian is 80 already but was decked out in full knight's exotic heavy armor with a greathammer. I suppose I could have just plodded through PoF with that build, but it was easy to switch to your build after buying the exotic celestial armor from the HoT vendor (plus using some ascended weapons and trinkets that I had lying around - not all celestial, however, mostly berserker's and viper's, so I'm a bit squishy at only 16k health). My plan is to switch over to your celestial firebrand build after I farm up the mastery for the elite, and I'm hoping that this core guardian build will be an easy bridge forward. Enjoying it so far!
Very cool and useful video! And that intro made me laugh :D Excellent work "Mindclown"! ^^ Oh, and by the way, I see I'm not the only one who dislikes "help" from other players while trying to actually SOLO stuff hehe. But hey, we can't blame them. It's a MULTIPLAYER game after all :D
actually, the Mindclown thing was something someone salty on the forums called me once ;) As for the Helpers.... I pretty much just had to meme because I had 17 attempts to solo bounties or HoT herospoints in a row helped and rather than losing my mind I decided to use some of the footage for this intro :)
@@MindOverMeta I see. Of course, I didn't mean to insult you, it was just a joke referring to the video :D Anyways, mate, appreciate constructive criticism but ignore pointless salt and hate. Good luck with your channel! I'll gladly see more content in the future :D
Ah, I miss retaliation, too. It was really fun telling the enemies to stop hitting themselves. XD Plus, it was all kinds of useful, especially in situations where you are outnumbered and in a spot of trouble. I remember before it got removed, I did the move that put down the symbol of retaliation, and yeah, the DPS enemy went "derp" then died. Good times. XD As always, an awesome video! (and I've noticed you swear about as much as I do in this game, lol. )
Back to gw2 after 2 years, have lvl80 guardian already which has greatsword, sword+focus and I believe I used to follow some dragonhunter build. Now I'm back and completely lost. 3 nights loged in for an hour just teleporting and not know what to do😁 anyone know any good video for returning players? How do you get that gear for example? Is it craftily from solo materials or is it raids?
You know, that intro of trying to solo stuff... Sometimes I come upon someone soloing a mob and I'll just tag it in case they are trying to solo it. Always an awkward decision.

And you're not wrong to play it that way :)
Good guide for new players... Now all i have to do is get super amazing endgame gear and I'm all set to start playing the game as a new player.

Intuition!

I would say just jump in... Honestly I was just memeing with the intro... I know its group content.
