Guild Wars 2

Im starting to begin to see that my guildmates are starting to hit 18k-21k in one hit i dont think 20% damage reduction would be enough but what im saying it not like completely nerf it like 50% reduction (which would make sense) but like traits the help increase damage for hammer should be moved alittle further cause them to put in more traits for that damage if they really want it that bad, they gonna have to sacrifice alot more for that damage for stun locking also keeping that -20% reduction

18-21k with hammer? Are you insane?

Not insane ive seen it and they even told me

That is Hundred Blades damage from Greatsword. Hammer damage is weak. It only does about 3-4k crits on full Berserker with maybe 10 stacks of might buffed, while the GS can do over 18-21k with its #2 skill completely unbuffed.

That kind of damage is also impossible on any weapon in “one hit”. The maximum I’ve ever heard of was a 10k crit at a boss fight with the person having 25 stacks of might and something like 3,000 power (Signet, Bloodlust, etc.), and several % bonuses.

Op is being sarcastic to counter the Nerf Warrior QQ. Clever but this should be in the general discussion forum where people will read

Wrong, a zerker warrior with 10 stacks of might will easily hit 6k+ with earthshaker or fierce blow.

Wrong again. It’s not unheard of that eviscerate or killing shot hit for 15k+. I even saw a video of a necro getting hit by a 21k killing shot.

As for the 20% damage nerf, we will see how it affects actual gameplay. I personally don’t think we will see less hammer-training warriors just because their favorite leaping 8-sec cooldown aoe cc initiate/escape tool now deals 5k aoe damage instead of 6k.
