[edit] Nerf to SoD

this skill is so annoying nerf it plz 24.141.45.72 02:56, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

Why Nerf? If whoever is balancing these skills out decides to nerf this skill, why not nerf fire attunement sense it is so annoying because every fire elementalist uses that skill. Just bring some type of skill that punishes the player for having an enchantment on them and problem solved.William Wallace 05:01, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

The irony of it is, this still isn't good enough to put on my monk, despite these complainers. No, seriously, If this is bothering you so much, just figure out a way to get Warrior's Cunning and such to work for you (I understand Rigor Mortis is good at this, despite being a hex), perhaps by mean of Recharge reduction of some sort or, better yet, instant recharge(Not that I would encourage Oath Shot for a non-ranger primary if not part of some awesome combo, but my point is made via example). As stated above, there are many ways to punish foes for daring to use enchantments or to block your skills. Find something that works, so you can use your own skill to not rely on nerfs to punish balanced skills. Chaiyo Kaldor talk contribs 05:27, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

Auron Bushi:wait what? Warriors cunning last 10 seconds and has a 60 second recharge time... lets now that we have 10 seconds of no bockage and we managa to kill you ( i would like to add 10 nrg for WC 5 for sprint and 5 for and attack skill that we can now only use once every ten seconds) 2 seconds later your res and we are right bac to where we were. Gaurdian should have a dramatically lower duration or longer recharge time. look at the warrior Defenceive stances, they nerfed them to prevent efficiently linking them together to have perfect blokage extended periods of the time, and they are warriors.. they;re job is to go up front and survive, abbadon forbid that yet a single monk can give themselves and another player the ability to block indefinatly? not to mention that every skill that removes enchments are either elite, XTREMELY conditional, have LONG recharge times and are SUICIDAL. but spellcastors love theiir god complexes i gues. bet you if they made all procjectile spell (or spells in general) blockable every1 and their mother would be jumping out of the woodwork "thats not fair, its magic it shouldnt be blocked, anet sucks" so on and so fourth. and why not make them blockable. they are projectiles, be they made of fire or steel or stone, theres no reason why a sheild can't block it or what ever force is blocking attacks with gaurdian and aegis to block cant be able to block projectile spells. but i'm moveing off topic this skill needed major debuffing and still does. 99.202.68.190 23:45, 10 March 2008 (UTC) strike hard strike fast, every strike first and last

Surprisingly, there are only two points I disagree with you on: One, the fact that you seem to have completely ignored my combo-encouragement to cut that bothersome recharge, and two, the list of useful enchanment removal that does not fall under any of your...gracefully put terms of removal. Cases in point: Strip Enchantment (recharge 15, no condition, even health steal), Test of Faith (For the non-necro; 15 recharge), Gaze of Contempt (Good to combo with Test of Faith; 15), [[Envenom Enchantment (Rec 20, but will make a foe pay for cover enchantment), Chilblains (20, but I cannot say how many times I was glad I brought this into combat), Rend Enchantments (20, effective if you call and have an experienced healer who knows what this does). Other than that, the only thing I find disagreeable in that are the points of grammar that are so graciously ignored on the internet. --Chaiyo Kaldor talk contribs 00:05, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Needs to be seperated between PvP and PvE

There are too many monk using guardian as a defense in PvP, especially in Random Arenas. It's frustrating when the monk is the last person standing, and neither you or your paty could kill said monk because that monk keeps spamming Word of Healing and Guardian. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 151.202.91.195 (talk • contribs) at 22:59, 16 July 2008 (UTC).

if thats a problem for you, then maybe you should learn to run a good team. enchant removal, and unblockable skills can destroy monks that use guardian and WoH without much trouble. 86.161.94.177 19:50, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

Agreed with 86.161.94.177, just because you can't kill a monk doesn't mean they have to be nerfed. --karen 19:52, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

If you want guardian nerfed then you need to uninstall, NOW. It's the ONLY DECENT prot against melee. 82.34.128.95 21:11, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

That one two seconds + on the recharge is still noticeable to me, and I would not like this nerfed again. Use tab, melee players! --People of Antioch 21:17, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

Thought it was 2 recharge, not 4. 82.34.128.95 21:19, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

Whoop, never mind, you are right. --People of Antioch 21:21, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] For everyone that fails hard at GW

This is NOT overpowered, it's good, and NEEDED. If you want this nerfed, uninstall now. Take it from the top200, guardian is an ESSENTIAL skill. Without it, monks are going to die FAST to melee. 82.34.128.95 21:13, 19 July 2008 (UTC)
