watched this on my phone so I think this was against IOJ. (my server) That is HILARIOUS. If you have 30 and you can't take 4 guys, you all deserve that repair costs and the 4 guys deserve a sweet vid. Sure some were underleveled and played poorly, but that's to be expected, you can't beat 30 players if they play well. So many zerg babies thinking they are safe in a group. Awesome vid, I enjoyed it.
If this was recent and you are still fighting IOJ and you see 4 guys from the guild RUN and one of them is a human elementalist (and you also have 4) start filiming...though I'm not sure the result will be to your liking. ;) ( I dont think we've ever rolled 30 guys before though, more like 15ish...so maybe I'll be proven very wrong)
The Guardian is clearly the most important class to master.
That's very situational. If I had to make a 4 man skirmish group I prob wouldnt have a guardian in it. Mesmer, necro, ele, thief. Then 5 can be warrior or guardian. Mesmer tima warp is a skill that is beyond useful. Necro's condition and space control is great. Ele (DD) with boons, condition removal and knockbacks. Thief for rex, stomp in stealth, group stealth, dps. Warrior/guardian for heavy armor/dps, knockbacks/bubbles.
Those guys wouldn't have made it without the guardian there. Same in dungeons.
Cool beans bro, I consede that guardians are the most important class to master based on the extensive and thought provoking arguments you have laid upon me here. That's why they're the meta of tpvp and WvW...because they are the most important class. This isn't PVE and dungeons. It's dubious to NAME ANY profession as the most important, and I wouldn't do it myself, but if an argument was made for one, it would not be a guardian imo.
