I'm a ladder slasher newb.

I want to make a Guardian Healer/Tank. (Is this viable in ladder slasher? Will people wanto party with me?)

How can I prepare for a climb? Every climb/party I join they all leave because they know I'm a newb what do I need to do to prepare for a climb?

Thanks all!

You need gear, never play guardian

What would you suggest for my first climb? A fighter I'm guessing?

Also is playing a guardian possible or do you need loads of FGs to have a useful guardian? Do people even want healers in ladder slasher?

There is no such things as useful guardians atm haha, it's main pupose is to heal, sure heals are always nice to have, but having one more player in the group who deals dmg is much more important.

I would suggest getin sword setup, which would help you get from fighter/rogue/barb whatever you decide , samy + paladin can also use sword.
u buf sworddmg with str gear. (might wanna buy a tank set instead of str armors)
