Guild Wars 2

Hello,

So I’d like to start off with I’m not a huge fan of the DPS meter. My first MMO is FFXI. I loved the way we all worked together with skill chains. No need for a DPS meter, just team work. I also enjoyed WoW before the dreaded meter. Didn’t have people posting their uber leetz scores. We all just worked together, and enjoyed our time.

However, DPS meters are incredibly important when video games offer you numerous options for profession builds. GW1 is famous for their abundant amount of job class combo / trait builds. Sadly, most of them didn’t work!

DPS meters can really help us weed out the builds here in GW2 that just aren’t viable. They can also help us relay information on weak trait builds to help balance out the game.

That’s why I would like to suggest a DPS meter for Heart of the Mists Dummies only. I believe the dummies in GW1 also had a DPS meter that would tell you how much damage you did in a period of time. There should also be a healing meter for those that would like to test out their support builds.

Again, I do not support DPS meters in parties, but we could really use some sort of DPS / Healing meter while we’re testing builds out in Heart of the Mists.

Thank you.
