Guild Wars 2

Howabout double Focus? And they function as fist weapons?

Horn mainhand.

Stereo shouts. Kills by earbleed.
Will be totally OP but nobody will care because metal. :p

Warrior specialisation will probably feature several options for applying and synergising the new ‘Taunt’ condition.

Staff warrior might be a kind of future specialisation, but I don’t see that happening for the taunt focussed one. Also it was revealed the Ranger Specialisation will be getting a staff, they might double dip the same weapon, but I figure they’d try to avoid doing so. Because of trade post supply and demand economy I guess.

My wild stab in the dark is the specialisation for warrior will be something rowdy and crude, gaining taunt powers by being able to insult anyone and anything through pure weaponised offensiveness and lack of manners. Something like Buccaneer or Brawler.

If anything, melee staff seems like it belongs in a Thief specialisation named Acrobat. But that too will have to wait for a later set of Specs to roll in, because of the weapon market.

Hate it give us torch and dagger

O.o Charr Death Metal band, do want!

Kills by earbleed face melting.

Warrior will become a Brawler and get a hand combat

means no weapon needed !

will just hit enemys with his bear hands !

Warrior : Dragon Raiders
Weapon : OH pistol
Utility : Gadget
Mechanism : F2 ability allowing the DragonRaider to use an OH burst skill.

Traits will most likely enhance adrenaline generation and on burst skill use.
Gadget will feel underwhelming at first glance

PS. : Only norns have bear hand for other it’s bare hand

@ OP : I think the best chance would be for the warrior to get either Pistol as new weapon type, short bow or Torch
Consider it logically, warrior can use:
1h Sword, 2h sword
1h mace, 2h mace
OFF hand Warhorn and 2h Bow.

There would be 2 options:
Either close combat which can be torch with burn effect
Either pistol or short bow for ranged.

Though, torch works good with Warrior and makes a lot of sense, bringing pistol or short bow would increase the variety of items you could get for ranged warriors.

Duke Blackrose.4981:

Pistol, Torch, Dagger, and Shortbow are the most obvious answers. Most likely offhand pistol because of the Rytlock precedent.

^^

Pistol (want main hand) but will probably only get offhand. Warrior will be getting a new F2 in compensation similar to Mesmer getting a new F5.

For utilities, Gadgets or Elixirs. It’s based on pre – Rytlock / Charr-based war preperation. Steampunk/technology based theme. My guess on name is something pretty simple like Soldier or Legionnaire.

Pistol throwing flames for havoc, no bullets just flame against tendrils. In other hand tempest will sprouting water for nice breeze and those tons of buring wreckage pieces around jungle.

Warrior specialization will be Battle Mage.

New MH weapon will be scepter.

So norn only?

kitten IT, BEATEN TO IT!

We could also see the story of our npc:

- Braham (guardian) spent a lot of time with Rox ( ranger ) → Guardians have longbow and traps (ranger skills)

- During a personal story Marjory ( necromancer ) said that Rox ( Ranger ) was helping her to train with the greatsword → Necromancers take greatsword and shout (ranger skills)

- Kasmeer ( mesmer ) spended a lot of time with ( Marjory ) → Mesmers take shield (is it rapresenting necro durability?) and wells ( necromancer skills )

- We know about the druid specialization for the ranger class, probably Rox ( ranger ) for the time spent with Braham ( guardian ) → staff weapon (also guardian weapon) and guardian skills (only speculation).

- Taimi, I rly don’t know her class…. Elementalist? Engineer? She spent a lot of time with Braham ( guardian ), mabie her class will receive something from the guardian class.

- Canach, when we foght him he used a rifle and mines, engineer? And then in the trailer at the end of the living story we see him with a shield and a sword, warrior? And during an other trailer we see an engineer using an hammer, sinergy about engineer and warrior ?

Mine is only speculation based on what I saw during the living story.

What the…? GREAT AXE! Oh, guys, that would be awesome! The (real) Berserker! I know, I know: it won’t happen, but it would be awesome!

Come on, ANet, bring that weapon to the game!

I would love some OH burst skills! Yay f2! seems to also suggest that our new weapons will be an OHder. Can get behind torch really. Remembering FFX, when Auron would make a tornado and light it on fire! That please!!!

And for the OP…I have no idea what a sage is or what one does.

Mainhand Pistol.

Specialisation = Space Marine.

Duo great sword!!

Would play with:

• Paladin: Mending+Breeze+Healing Hands (think of a longer-lasting Defiant Stance)
• DragonPuncher: It’s not even high concept anymore, it’s shrooms tier. (loving it)
• Double Horns: Vuvuzela power

Would not play with:

• Spess Mehreen (I’m neither bald nor a hair-etic)

Boro.7359:

• DragonPuncher: It’s not even high concept anymore, it’s shrooms tier. (loving it)

Still waiting for that Dragonbrawler.

Spec: Offender, a heavily-armored warrior who dominates the field of battle due to intense martial prowess and an unmatched repertoire of dynamic crowd control skills.

Offhand: rude gestures.

F1: point at target and laugh
F2: insult target’s mother
F3: ‘nannner nanner boo boo’
F4: moon target(s)

Mem no Fushia.7604:

Soldier cuz its seems like more advanced Warrior. Pistol in main hand.

Rytlock Brimstone is a Warrior( before his conversion to Revenant ).. in Ascalonian Catacombs story he fight with Sword and pistol off hand … players expect more on the Warrior specialization but it can be simple as that … Pistol.

Warrior use all weapon except Pistol , Shortbow , Torch , Staff , Dagger , Focus, Scepter.

My bet is on the Pistol.

Gadget Belt! I wanna make batman with shark repellent in my toolkit and a greatsword to ‘administer’ it with!

And you get a sigil on every finger. So you’ll have your Force, Battle, Intelligence, Fire, Accuracy, Air, [W], [X], [Y], [Z]; w being anything for extra damage like Impact or something that procs conditions, x being your stacking sigil depending on what you need, y being something utility like energy, leeching or purity and z being your slayer sigil because it’s just too easy! 10% damage in your hand practically for free :O

Lol if not that, perhaps just having the option of holding a sigil in the weapon slot and giving you the ability of just taking it out and putting another when you need something else (easy peezy sigil swap fisticuffs!)

I very much would love to see warriors get a staff and have it very much quarterstaff/bo staff style of fighting.

However I heard Revenant is getting melee staff, so I’d suggest warriors get daggers

My suggestion is either.

Pick 1) Staff (duh)
Pick 2) Dagger offhand or both
Pick 3) Torch

I really really hope we don’t get pistol because well that just meeh.

What skill type you all expecting?

And new “weapon” for warrior: They lose 3/4 of what they can wield and get kits!

Oh dear God, vuvuzela spec…

I’d be most disappointed if it was trident for underwater, so I’m guessing it will be trident then.

Tbf Land Trident/Spear, Survival skills that deal with leaps, moving in and out of battle.

You got yourself a dragoon.

Mercenary maybe ?

Bounty Hunter?

Reaver?

Berserker?

I am leaning towards Bounty Hunter/Mercenary with pistol and/or dagger

plant hater, torch main hand to burn the jungle
