Guild Wars 2

Can we solicit opinions from the balance team about certain issues? I’d really like to hear someone speak of what the general opinion is regarding movement speed in all aspects.

Out of combat: Is there a desire to bring parity between the classes with respect to out of combat movement speed, either including or excluding abilities with a movement component? Is the ability to rune a set of armor to gain additional swiftness to close the gap considered the best case scenario, or a band-aid or something in between?

In combat: Are all classes currently where they are meant to be for in combat mobility? Are there certain areas that are being considered for improvement or impairment?

I see another “nerf warrior” thread. The thing couldn’t please me more actually.

all professions should have the same movement speed and access to movement abilities. additionally, base movement needs to be increased and combat movement suppression needs to be removed because running in mud is not enjoyable.

I want them to remove in-combat slow down from the game. That is one of the most annoying mechanics, and one of my pet peeves. I hate missing a jump and falling down a cliff, just because a random ambient creature is angry at me.

That aggroed bunny is really really…really angry :P its seething inner rage makes your character experience incredible fear thus reducing your movement speed. See? It makes sense

and it has SHARP, POINTY TEETH!
