Killed? Hardly. You are simply a mere mortal free kill now, like the rest of us before the patch that made Warriors viable.

ANET you just did a great justice with the game. Whoever Okayed these changes should be given a bonus. And your whole balance testing team should as well.

Fixed.

If you call that fixed, it is definitely an issue specific to yourself, as far as I can tell. I have had no feelings of being a free kill on any profession I have played since the update. I spent a substantial amount of time on my warrior in PvP and WvW yesterday, last night and today, I had no real problems.

If you PM me, I would be happy to connect with you in game and go over some things with you. I am sure with a little guidance, you could learn to play the profession to a level beyond that of “free kill”.

The Adrenaline changes killed this profession. Was fighting a thief he blinked away. Lost all adrenaline, then got rekt.

ANET you just killed your own game. Whoever Okayed these changes should be fired. And your whole balance testing team should be as well.

This is the exact same problem that every other profession has when a thief resets a fight after some of their key resources to fight them are exhausted.

The change was reasonable. The benefits of maintaining adrenaline were ones that no other profession had. To claim someone should be fired for that is extremely ridiculous.

I do not know what you do for a living. I can tell you that if a single customer, who knew nothing about your business, suggested that you be fired for a change that is rational to the vast majority of your customer base, you would likely laugh at them.

I only play Warrior and this killed the game for me. Time to find a new MMO, at least until they fix it.

Warrior is just a little kitten punching bag now.

Whoa, I just saw this thread and almost threw up. Warriors are not dead. Warriors if anything were buffed with the gs f1 skill… Before the update, unless you are an idiot, probably didn’t even use your adrenaline in a fight since it gave u all those kitten buffs. Warrior is literally:disable (kd, kb, or immo) then press 2 and watch your enemy die at the end of your gs… Then if they aren’t dead yet you have your kittening hammer which kb/kd’s so hard. And, you have a kitten ton of regen. You think you were nerfed? Look at us thieves for kittening’s sake! We literally don’t have a possible weapon set! Like, o s#*t, the warrior actually has to play like everyone else instead of being a lazy kitten Omg! Never seen that ever in the history of gw2!

I took my warrior in and retraited for axe/axe hammer. I went right up to brawlers recovery in discipline line. Took spiked armor in the toughness trait line.

I threw a cleansing sigil onto the hammer. If anything he more survivable. I see no loss in adrenaline gain. Conditions rarely last on him.

If anything he is tankier and axe/axe gens a lot of adrenaline.

I save the adrenaline for when it a sure thing and ensure adrenal health pumps out its maximum. I still getting used to the nuances of Juggernaught but its a beast.

Warrior’s adrenaline F1 skills are all unusable now…..

You literally have 0.00000000001 millisecond to use your F1 skill before your adrenaline is zero.

Even Usain Bolt was quoted as saying, “I am not fast enough”.

RIP warrior time to QQ about necros or eles now

This. So much this.

And Thieves.

And Engies.

I’m glad we’ve dropped the trite “don’t nerf me, buff everybody else” rhetoric.

AnonMD.7263:

If you lost once you lost all your Adrenaline and the fight got reset, how’d you manage to not get rekt while building it up in the first place?

EDIT: And don’t Thieves kinda hardcounter Warriors? Isn’t that like, their job?

Thieves do now in a sense since thieves have all the evades, they can get wars to blow adrenaline, reset a fight, and then burst them down.

No. If you get one pushed your bad. Yah all you have to do now is reset the fight and GG you beat a warrior.

Still doesn’t explain my question.

cooldowns.

If his utilities were used to stay alive and he exhausted them, a reset would render him a sitting duck.

Thieves can pretty much hard reset fights by pulling away as soon as adrene is full. once it’s insta-decayed, pop back in while utils are on cooldown and warrior is easy bag.

who has passive play now?

Balance is made around tpvp so far . If you are complaining this i blame anet .

Also run and hit is passive play ?

Such Q.Q, such little direction

Lyssa forbid you get punished for missing something. Welcome to earth warriors, welcome to earth. Sit down and smell the sweet smell of punishment for low skill floor. So mad that you weren’t catered as Anet love child hmm? Practice on your active thinking and maybe you will adapt or just quit realizing its too much work when it really is too easy to adapt to this change when you didn’t just press 1-5 for a living.

Your trolling is bad, and you should feel bad.

I have to admit, warriors feel weaker now.But far from free kills.Very,very far.More like in line with…you know…the other 7 classes in Warriors wars 2 before patch.Oh.Shiet.I forgot necro is no longer a class

Give me shovel i must bury that abomination deeper… way deeper so to make sure signet and hambow zombie never rise again.

If they are hell bent on nerfing the warrior class, at the very least (like you know sympathize with us and donate 1 dollar to help the poor scheme?) they could give us less telegraphed moves.

But we get telegraphed moves which only sleeping Koalas cannot evade, we now get adrenaline which disappears as fast as The Flash on steroids; we get nerfs after nerfs on dmg which turns our weapons into mere balloon blowup toys; and there are people still campaigning to nerf our sustain, which contrary to popular belief, is us being on an ER life-line drip instead of performance enhancing drugs.

This is the first MMO I’ve seen (others may have experienced it elsewhere) which has a Balance Team that does Unbalancing instead. If they were to have an award, it’ll be “The Nerfrific Team of the Year”.

You have less telegraphed moves. You just don’t use them.

warrior are punished for a low skill floor, they have a low skill cap. Unlike eles or guardians, warriors have very little sustain in their weapon skills. Their healing comes with extra cons. BTW, most classes heals for 1/4-1/3 of their overall health. I find that a con because warrior naturally take in more damage than other classes. Anet designed them this way which they realize it was a mistake. Unfornately, Anet fix the class with cheese traits. You literally have to trait to get decent condition removal. Even worse, their access for cheese boons such as protection, aegis, vigor and etc are very limited. All of their weapon skills are telegraphed. There is a reason why asura is popular among warriors because you instantly become 30% better because opponents have trouble seeing your animations.

Although the adrenaline change is in the correct direction. Anet still have to provide more sustain via weapon skills.

Oh man first you reply with bolas and now you dont even know whats wrong with it..

I’m assuming that skills work as they are supposed to, otherwise this entire discussion’s kind of pointless. If your key skills don’t work, you’re not an imbalanced class, you’re just a class which plain doesn’t work.

I’ve had little issue with bolas. Get in someone’s face and then throw them. The projectile doesn’t need to go over bumpy terrain and they won’t have time to get out of the way and the skill has almost no tell so they can’t really dodge it- which is almost the exact circumstance in which you should use your finisher anyway.
