#1 - This is not a horrible idea and other dynamic solutions have been thought but generally coming up with one would require a lot more time than I have. Yours in particular as you said would not work due to players being able to tank their GKDR and having to police/limit that wouldn't be feasible. As for changing guard buffs on how many players hit it's not a bad idea and I have considered it but ultimately it might create inconsistent gameplay and we'd have to add checks for if it's just C blockers hitting them.
#2 - Not a bad idea but probably won't happen unless I really think it out.
#3 - We may do small buffs to guards such as increased sharpness maybe an extra heart etc. Thinking about PvP it usually comes down to either who can kill the other player or who has the most gold apples. Guards could do with extra health to burn through more supplies of attacking players but still dying in the end. We also previously buffed guard gold apple counts significantly and I'll look to doing it again. Another option is to give guards another actual item buff like making the tasers better when a guard uses them.
Thanks for the suggestions and making me think about the issue to formulate a response.
