I understand you dont want the tri-class thing going on with tank/healer/dps but fact of the matter is healing really helps, being 80 and running with friends/guild i have seen that we can get away without having a “tank” but sometimes theres just too much dmg going arround in instances. too many mobs pulled or something of that nature.. its a 90% wipe then.. you give guardians all these awesome support spells, but half of them dont mean anything because its based off the OTHER PLAYERS STATS . Its to the point of why am i even stacking healing if it doesnt do anything.. regen is a vital boost, and i really feel as if it should be based off the casters stats, not the player receiving it..

I don’t think support class is intended in this game design.

I went water spec on my elementalist healing my comrades in battle, rezing downed and killed players and doing every supporting role except dps-ing on the enemy. And I got zero xp, zero karma, zero silver after working so hard for hours in WvW.

I turn on my fire spec since. There is no point.

well they dont want you to sit there and not do anything, i use scepter/sheild and mace/sheild, or mace/sheild and staff – and i hit everything, they dont want you to sit in the corner and just heal.. just read the guardian elite skill, it literally says you gain powerful SUPPORT skills.

re: no support class

The game is not rewarding dedicated support, no; but each player should be supporting the other party members at least part of the time.

Not a good concept, support and being there should give you rewards rather then what it is right now. Right now in most instances of combat (PvE and WvW) I simply try to tag everything once rather then properly help kill something because that gives me 8-10 times the reward of playing the game properly. It feels stupid running around with my axe/bow and just trying to AoE everything once so I can loot everything.
