Guild Wars 2

Any1 else? It feels like gw2 has four builds. 1. Glass Cannon. 2. Condition/toughness. 3. MF (which isn’t even a build lolz). 4. a balanced tougness/power/vit. I’m really missing the crazy amount of skills you had in gw1. In gw1 you could make a REAL build since there’s over 1k skills available and can only use 8. In gw2 every1 uses same skills with a minor difference from Traits. Those saying Traits makes a huge difference, no, just wake up and look how MUCH more flexible gw1 was. If every class could use every kind of weapon it could’ve been a little better (and hope this is expanded in expansions) but right now the builds are a joke compared to gw1.

i hope you’re trolling because 98% of skills in gw1 is unusable/sucks.

So you say GW1 is better in every way, then just complain that GW2 doesn’t use the same skill system?
Did you think people wanted/needed to read this? Do you add anything to these forums?

I find GW2 is the better game. However, the good thing is that GW1 is still available to play.

No i’m not. GW1 had tones of useless skills but it also had tones of useful skills for unique build that every class can use.

do you add something to this thread? No. get out.

EDIT: i complained about skills because the obvious isn’t even worth mentioning but i will just for u. Dungeons that ARE worth doing. Campaign missions that doesn’t feel like a generic solo bs. Loot, yes loot worth farming? Armors, looked better in gw1 (not graphically of course) and had class specific ones. To name some out of my head…

GW1 was one of the worst mmos/pseudo mmo i’ve ever played….it was worse than rift and warhammer combined…
GW2 is actually a fun game. It has a great many flaws yet …but assuming the devs make good decisions(which is sketchy at this point) then GW2 will be the 2nd funnest MMO ever IMO.

Less is more. GW1 had the illusion of having more builds, but in reality 60% of skills weren’t used and there was a flavour of the month build that was far stronger than anything else.

This is absolutely not true ankittenep hearing this from people who’ve never played/haven’t played gw1 for long. Not cuz PVX shows 100 builds its all the game has. There were tones of useful combos for every class, even the Paragon!!!! except you’ll have to remove the “tones” part.

I think what you want..is Gw1.5..and what you got is Gw2, its a new game, its not going to be the same. Gw1 at its beginning did not have 1000 skills, it did have dual class, which is a limitation, however I dont find lack of skill slots the reason I play or dont play a game. The other thing is that in Gw1 you could make a class that could fulfill all roles, here you cant..you can solo dungeons, its going to take you more than 8 minutes and thus there is no purpose making a super build.

This game is still ‘vanilla’. How about we wait for a couple expansions before we start comparing.
