Guild Wars 2

Hello everyone !

I’m glad to say I spend too much to read this forum !
I found funny how players react to each specialization.

First, the mesmer. When the “Chronomancer”, was annonced, we could
have read "YEAH! ". When shield was annonced has specialization weapon
many complaint have occured, many wanted pistol MH. When the full spe
was revealed it was mostly a good thing for many mesmers. Even the
shield with only 2 skill sound good.

Second, the guardian. Before the specialization was annonced, many
wanted a bow for longe range attack. “Dragonhunter” was annonced, with
bow. Nobody care about bow, but complaint about the name of the
specialization and traps appears. Finally the super supportive ranged
guard is now a ranger (Zerk) without pet, like some comments. Yay, but
guardian can’t be more supportive than he is already and many guard
will look forward this specialization.

Third, the necromancer. Many necromancer wanted a close weapon with
cleaves and CC. Reaper come. They have a GS, many chill (one of the
most annoying condition in pvp/wvw), shoot which does damages. And an
über-cool DS with a scythe (look and damage). They are not happy. Why?
Too slow. I will exagerate : many wanted a big dagger to do extrem
damages (fast, strong, CC, and the coffee).And shout do too little
damage and have a cast time. Of course it’s cool to spam insta damage.
It’s exagerated, I have only keep the most biaised comment, many
necromancer are ok,with the reaper like that on paper and wait to try
it.

Fourth, the elementalist. “Give us sword MH, our dagger is soooo
useless” “Bolt look so cool on my elem!” We can or not agree, but
before warhorn confirmed there were so many complaint about it. Like a
shield for mesmer. Now we known they have shout too.
I will look forward if tempest fit my elementalist. It’s could be at least !

I wanted to share the progression of thread in some class forum.
Personaly I don’t comment, except with guildmate. Each tine ANet
surprise me. Their development team is really good. They do their best
to think outside the box. We can be ok with or not but it’s always a
surprise. It’s always a good work or a least a step, in a direction
the class needed. Not always the voiced player base wanted
:D

(I’m sorry for any mistake)
