Guild Wars 2

In my opinion, all classes should either have it removed or all classes should be given the option for it.

The recent topics about getting away from the zerging mentality would start here. A lot of people don’t solo or small man because of the lack of escapability of some classes. I play multiple classes and find myself switching a lot depending on the current state of the realm. I would love to venture out on my guardian or memser, but find it discouraging when I am repeatedly run down by larger numbers.

Yes, I know there is swiftness, etc, but you shouldn’t be forced into a specific weapon type or setup.

Not to mention if I want to duo/trio with friends or guild mates and not everyone has the speed boost. Waiting for the slow guy gets annoying.

Just my 2 cents.

agree for 10000000% because only source of swiftness for mesmer is either gambling with staff or using focus, well guard has tons of that skill on staff and 2 utilities., but thief, necro, ele, ranger have it. Warrior, Engineer, Guardian and mesmer are left as slow classes.

While I agree it should all be equal, that is not true.

Engineer has the trait Speedy Kits for instance, the medkit has a Swiftness buff and so does Elixer B and the thrown effect of Elixer B. These are the ones I know by head.

Guardian has various shouts that also contain the Swiftness Buff. Warriors do too with their banners.

nah it’s pretty balanced, war can get swiftness trough banners/signets/warhorn, engi also has tons of swiftness,

thiefs only have some traits and combo finishers that give them swiftness

what about mesmers

But thieves also have the passive 25% skill. Mesmers have nothing, unless they equip themselves with Air/Centaur tunes. Even then, it’s wildly annoying.

whatever happens, keep PvE out of it, please.

we need it on all classes in PVE put it on something we can equip on our utility bar I don’t care (rocket boots for engineers for instance) however we all need it. This system of teleporting the loadscreens don’t load fast enough in PVE and if they truly won’t ever load mounts then this is a must.

Tired of switching kits all the time just to travel while gathering on my engi.
