Mace has the regen symbol and when used correctly it can pulse heal 300 as well as regen 210 added with the virtue heal spread to others doing a further 200 is a perfect group heal of 700 per tick. That's what I use in my guild [Zero] and it works well and efficiently. So that might be why he used it.
May I ask what build you are using on your guardian? I am especially curious on the staff & mace/shield set-up, seems very appealing, would be a nice change to the standard staff/gs or staff/hammer build I run most of the time. Also, happy to see one of the best WvW guilds back in action again!
So Godspeed, did you had to fill in for the clerics mace sheild role for a bit? As a replacement, or was it both you and Zumos run that during the same raid?
Still doesnt help them getting 2v1'd by JQ and TC, LOL! Fukin BG ruined tier 1 wvw, i swear. its just a freakin 2v1 fest...im jus happy its ON THEM now, so they have a taste of their own medicine.
It's something I was giving a try since now Im off raidleading. Since the party buff prio and other synergies in place there is room for more testing ;)
We disbanded the Guild 2 years ago, we were on Piken Square. The Original Red Guard was our Guild from DaoC and we all moved to GW2 after the Alpha. Sacrx was part of the Alpha and he was the one who kinda organized the switch from DaoC to GW2. Intigo who made alot of Videos is still active in another Guild that he formed after Red Guard falling apart. Intigo is still on Piken Square. I sadly have no contact to Sacrx anymore and have no Idea what he is up to. But I don't think he will return.
It's not a horrible idea. The AoE regen support is pretty solid to help pocket fights, and activating the shield 5 as a projectile absorber counters their backline. Probably only viable to have 1 or 2 Guardians do this in a raid. Pretty sure Zumos from RG has been doing this setup for ages tbh.
