Guild Wars 2 Compendium
Guardian
The strength of guardians lies in their defensive abilities, survivability, and buffs. I can see guardians always being in demand due to the amazing group buffs they provide. Special skills called Virtues are what make guardians stand apart from other professions, virtues provide a passive bonus to the guardian, but can be activated to grant powerful buffs to nearby allies. Their other special abilities are Symbols and Wards, which are ground-targeted spells that can be aimed at enemies or used for providing buffs to allies.
Virtues:
Virtue of Courage: Every 30 seconds, the guardian is given a buff that will block the next attack. When activated, this bonus will be applied to all nearby allies temporarily.
Virtue of Justice: Every fifth attack will burn the guardian's enemy. When activated, this bonus will be applied to all nearby allies temporarily.
Virtue of Resolve: Provides a passive health regeneration to the guardian. When activated, this bonus will be applied to all nearby allies temporarily.
