GF - Leveling Stats

Hello!

I am leveling a GF, currently at 21. I am doing PvE (Dungeons, quest lines, foundry) and PvP.

Right now, I have been stacking mostly defense and power and ignoring all other stats. I have some deflection, but that is just a by-product of what is available on the AH.

My question is this - should I be trading any of the defense / power for some of the other stats?

    first off, don't be afraid to pick up offensive stats in place of the defensive stuff. my first time thru on my guardian i picked all defense, deflect, that sort of stuff and a really defensive build. it was fine for a first character, but then i tried a DPS build (Rokuthy's conqueror spec) and its so much more fun for me. basically i pick all offensive stats wherever i can.

    grab yourself a cleric companion and go all out offense, you'll have a blast :D

    i recommend building like this guy and he gives really good information about the skills.

    Up to level 60 you should be trying stuff out, you can get the powers that appeal to you and test if you like them. There are powers like the "Gain 3% of your Max HP when killing an enemy" which are great for leveling 50-60 but don't do too well at level 60. Don't worry too much about equipment stats. You level so fast that you will be replacing your equip every 2-3 levels.

    Once you are level 60 you can buy a respec any time, it's not too expensive. It's much about the feats. If you don't want to respec just check a guide and follow it. You can check Envys Guardian Fighter Compendium. It is quite old and focussed on PvP, but concerning powers and feats its still quite alright.
