Guild Wars 2

I think vigor and stability are breaking the game. Some classes have ample access to it, some don’t. These 2 boons are breaking the game, they need to go. Get rid of them and I think you’ll find this game sooo much easier to balance out. In fact we might even see true balance…for a short time anyway until someone figures out a new exploit. It puts everyone on a relatively even playing field. Also, it would enrich pve content by making you actually think rather than mindlessly “stack and dps”.

Care to elaborate a little more? Your suggestion is…intriguing.

Without Vigor, skills like Roll for Initiative and Withdraw would be way too strong. Not to mention that we have things like Signet of Stamina that would end up just about replacing Vigor. Not only that, but there are tons of skills, traits and utilities whose primary function is Vigor or evades, so you would have to rework all of those.

As for Stability, without Stability, CCs would be the supreme king. DPS wouldn’t matter for crap in PvP because everyone would be getting CC’ed to death. And then you would be forced to rework pretty much all skills that have CC on them.

So I don’t really see what would change. Mind explaining?

everybody would be running aoe cc like necro fear or warrior hammer

no

this just a really bad idea and you should feel bad
