Guild Wars 2

Anyone here feel that some classes are far more targeted and people say that class needs to be nerfed more than others which is some cases is true but sometimes I feel some classes people are just looking for reosons to nerf a class even though there are definately classes that clearly flat out stronger than others that nobdy calls nerf on

It happens in all games like this.

It’s just easier for some people to demand nerfs than to adjust their playstyle. It’s pretty sad, I agree with you.

Yes… this is so, and no amount nerfing shuts them up either. I have seen it other games. Classes become real duds in pve. People put in lots of time and effort on a toon, really like it….then end up with totally lackluster toon that is a chore to play. A totally different toon than they “signed up” for.

Seriously, it keeps me from making many toons or becoming too invested in playing. Why should I?

I basically lost 2 toons in another game. Pvp nerfs ruined my toons for pve ( I am a pve player). And the forums are still full of nerf demands for the classes. My friends there would like me to return, but not happening. “Well, roll different classes” they say. They miss my point.

My fun was gone, and when nothing was done to rectify the mess ( I gave it a long time), I left the game. It was simply no fun.

Can happen here too I am sure, so….I am much more limited as to what I will do. I really wish they could totally seperate pve from the wvw thing, as they use the same ruleset. Hence, when people go bonkers for nerfing mesmer, thief, ele…whatever….pve players get slammed.

It seriously limits my participation level in the game. I think it is really fun game, but experience makes me wary.

Every class needs a Nerf except mine. Mine needs a boost!

It’s the nerf cycle that plagues every MMO. From the current OP profession to the next, a whiner will always QQ.

I don’t think classes need a nerf, I do think certain ones need buffing to be on-par with the more popular ones, but nerfing has never been the right answer. Balance is the key, but it’s so rarely found.

Rather than nerf all classes why can’t they just buff us to ridiculous levels

For all the talk about nerfing classes, it seems the only classes that actually do get nerfed are classes like Engineers (because they are so overpowered right?!?).

Basically you have a lot of children that play this game, some of them are even grown children….They think you should be able to beat any class, in any situation, or that you should be able to attack a zerg alone etc. etc….

Once they get rolled by a thief, or DD ele, or one of those godforsaken engineers that bounce you around the map like a basketball, then they come in here and cry nerf.

Coming from someone who does their fair share of complaining about anet, I can even see there is why too much QQing for nerfs. More often than not there is a counter for everything, so in contrast of my previous statement any class really can beat any other class…YOU just have to figure out how, that’s the fun of PVP/WVW.

This is a most excellent topic i hope the gw2 staff take into heavy consideration. The truth is this whole nerfing thing is just an extension of the current real world in which no one wants to face the fact that they simply lost. They always need to point the finger at anything else that helps them save face from the fact that they lost or were wrong etc. Giving into these types of people never works. Just look at world of warcraft’s long history. People constantly complained and nerfs were always given. It silenced a few but people saw that nerfed class die and they jumped on the next class that is in turn complained about and nerfed. All that’s left behind are disappointed people that no longer enjoy their toon they put a bunch of work into. This never ended, it just kept going.

One thing i can’t personally stand are thieves and how they 2 shot you from out of nowhere. But instead of complaining i just adjusted all my builds with mechanisms to resist their bursts. In return they get mad at me and say my class will get nerfed because they couldn’t 2 shot me. How is that fair i do not know.

I would ask that the gw2 staff to find any other solution than starting the long never ending nerf train up. Don’t give into these spoiled, emotional complainers. Thanks

What I’ve always said is, make every profession as awesome as Warrior. Don’t bring Warrior down, bring the others up.

They may take everything what marks the mesmer, but they cannot take our pride!!!

Buff more classes and be more careful with the nerfs!
Consider more pve/ pvp splits, you do them anyway…

+1

Some players see things black/white safest thing to do is to use all you’re 5 character slots and make 5 different professions level them to 80 then change back/fourth as they become useless due to forum QQ.

I have all eight classes and I like them all, but that doesn’t change my view on certain issues.. ^^
