Guild Wars 2

Hey everybody,

I got 4 classes:
Necro (10% signet speed buff), Thief (25% signet speed buff), Guardian (I use “retreat” and he is protected by heavy armor).
But my mesmer got nothing except on the weapons. No speed buff at all at the utility slots. Why is that? And he only got light armor. Easy to catch for enemies. I think that’s not a balanced gameplay. :/

I would love to hear a statement from Arena Net about it.

I play a Mesmer exclusively in WvW, I complain to people that I play with about my lack of speed. They tell me he is getting away! and I say, I have no speed, I cannot catch them.

While I beat down anyone that stays an fights, it is hard to chase people if they decide to run. I feel this is balanced due to the Mesmer’s power. If the Mesmer could kill any one and be faster than everyone, then they truly would be over powered.

We do not need a speed boost.

If anything the thief’s speed boost needs reduced to put it in-line with everyone else’s, or remove it entirely and tell everyone to rely on stealth more.

Mesmer is fine without it. Learn to use your focus wall to drag back those trying to run away. If you are one of those individuals not using a focus in your offset weapons, well then that’s you’re choice for not havign a way to drag people back to you. BTW…that wall also makes YOU faster if you run over it before blowing it up to drag them back. A great 1-2 whammy, especially if it throws them right where your clones are for a nice shatter kill.
