Guard needs outright immunity & limited uses

Right now every class except GF has a way to dodge out of red circles and aoes.
The excuse is that we're supposed to Guard it, except Guard cannot actually sustain the damage, and even if it does we still get knocked down or knocked back most of the time.
This means we're actually the only class that has to manually walk out of circles, and thus we have the lowest survivability in T2, especially since our Defense does not give us significantly higher mitigation than Clerics and GWFs.
Guard needs to have specific charges like the Rogue Dodge or Wizard Blink do, and provide complete immunity to damage and control effects for 2-3 seconds. That's the only way Guard could actually become useful against special attacks.
Fix that together with making Mark have a specific duration and not being dropped when we get hit, and we'd probably be able to tank again.

Most of the lag is on your side, ofcourse the server can be a bit laggy. it might be that your connection isnt good enough.
How fast you lose guard meter in dungeons is what is killing the GF. Other class at least get the advantage of putting some distance between them and there attack when they dodge. When a GF loses guard meter they are punching bags that cant escape at all.
We need at least other 2 commands when guarding, for not we have the aggravating strike and the shield slam, but we need at least a BACKJUMP (press jump when in parry mode to jump ONLY backward with a little cd between one jump and another), and the tab skill avaible when guarding.
And OFC some optimization on aggro generation and guarding bar duration ^^
Can we get some dodge skill? Useable only at PvE, disabled at PvP? Coz currently we are weak... as hell. Maybe some better resistance? Skills on passive ressistance like ~400 def addidtionaly? Aggro generation... we have only one true AoE crowd control spell.. what the? We can't take dmg on ourselfs, plus if we could, we would die in secunds. I just want to feel a little bit more tanky, to be a Guardian master!
Said the cleric , get the fk out of here .
