Is that the spawned weapon? Does ANet even have the letters Q and A in their alphabet?

yes its the spawned weapon and it must be broken or something..
a single skill that hits for 8k on heavy armor in PVP where you don’t have food/buffs etc etc and low ferocity.. something is wrong with that skill..
The guardian did not want to tell but he even says it hits 12k on most classes.
that’s insane for a PET!!!

Sounds like something got messed up on the Ferocity change. I don’t know if necro minions have similar WTF moments, but since there was a good amount of work done on related traits, my guess is no.

What are they called again? Oh yeah Spirit Weapons. Are those new? No? Really?

Anyway.. I’ll give it a test later tonight in WvW. AFAIK, Hammer of Wisdom’s attack, just like the Sword of Justice’s does not scale with the summoner stats. In case that I am wrong, with 2400 power and 25% crit damage on my guardian, the fully traited hammer crits for 4k~.

They are only viable for 1v1 against non aoe enemy. Other than that they die too quick to be called great.

They changed bundle items to scale with power now. I’m assuming that includes spirit weapons too.

Well, latest update notes said they fixed a bug with pets/minions/summons scaling improperly in PvP. That should have resolved it.

Too bad if it is fixed. You can tell me it is OP, but from the other side, spirit weapons are like engineer turets: Completely unused, only in several situations. This actually made me thinking about playing a build around spirit weapons.

heavy armor/light armor/medium armor makes absolutely zero difference when it comes to how much damage you take. Its about which amulet you are using, not what armor you have that determines how resilient you are.

The realism of this game draws me in!

Nobody at Anet loves WvW like Grouch loved PvP. That’s what we need, a WvW Grouch, but taller.

A light armor with a soldiers amulet will be a loooooooot tankier than a heavy armor with zerker. The difference between the base armor is so small its irrelevant.

It’s roughly 300 stat points actually. As much as you get to one stat from full investment in a traitline, for comparison. Not particularly irrelevant, especially considering that by your comparison it’s actually more than the total armor difference between zerker amulet on a heavy and soldiers amulet on a light class (291 base difference compared to 269 difference after stats). People always underestimate base armor differences.

base lvl 80 exotic armor coat (draconic) 363
Equivalent lvl 80 exotic light armor coat(exalted)314

the base armor difference is exactly 49

Not even close to 300 difference. And not even close to make a meaningful difference in any situation.

So roughly 50 per armor piece? now let’s remember, we have 6 armor pieces…6*50…that’s 300. Right ! Thank you.

If you want to do the whole set then exalted then its still less than 300 and the difference is closer too 400 than 300. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=glkQwKA5_PU

my original point is that the guy could be walking around with zerker heavy armor and get hit for a ton. but a tanky light armor could be much more of a tank than he could be. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4BQjCF8MENw

…So when did we start just randomly picking a single piece of armor instead of comparing sets as a whole? Forgive me if I sound rude, but what the actual kitten.

To your later post, here is the wiki on base total armor stats.
http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Armor#Defense_rating
The base difference between an exotic light armor set and an exotic heavy armor set is exactly 291 (1211-920), if you can’t be bothered to click the link. The difference in total armor between a heavy armor class with a zerker ammy and a light armor class with a soldier ammy is exactly 278. 278<291.

Congratulations on failing basic arithmetic.

Edit: Oh, in case you don’t know what a PvP soldier’s amulet actually is and can’t be bothered to look it up: http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/PvP_Soldier%27s_Amulet
The stats: 798 power, 569 toughness and vitality, in case you can’t be bothered to click that link either
