Guild Wars 2

Hi people,

Henry back again, how we all doing?

I have spent the last 2 days doing a ton of research and I have come up with a comprehensive set of balance changes to save this game. I asked many people about these changes and almost all agreed they were remarkable in how amazing they were. So without further delay….here are the highly anticipated changes:

1, Give power block cooldown increase a 60 second icd
2, Reduce shatter damage by 25%
3, Remove immunity from blurred frenzy
4, Remove cancel cast exploit on mesmer greatsword
5, Give withdraw a 1 second cast time before the evade
6, Reduce backstab damage by 20%
7, Cap stealth duration at 5 second after which a class always gets revealed
8, Increase cost by 1 for the following skills: Infiltrators arrow, heartseeker, headshot, blinding powder
9, Make steal require line of sight
10, Reduce ele healing signet power by 15%
11, Reduce burning damage by 25%
12, Give cleansing water kitten icd
13, Give blindind ashes a 15s icd
14, Drakes breath cd increased to 15s
15, Burning speed no longer evades
16, Ring of fire cd increased to 25 seconds
17, Fire grab damage reduced by 15%
18, Lightning whip damage reduced by 20%
19, Air and fire sigil damage reduced by 50%
20, Remove strength runes from pvp
21, Chill effects thief initiative regen
22, Portal now has a 1s cast time
23, Panic strike icd increased to 60 seconds
24, Reduce celestial stats by 15%
25, Moa skills reset to before the nerf

These are the 25 changes needed to add counter play back to the game.

Thoughts?

I like you, 15chars

blinding ashes is already a pretty lackluster trait simply because it has a global ICD and not a per-target ICD…If they increased the cooldown to 15 sec while also changing it to a per target ICD I can see that being a good thing.

I think this parody account is no longer entertaining.

I mean, it was kind of cute for a while Hank, but it’s grown out of hand.

Just play the game – or don’t, I don’t really care. Just stop posting over the top nerf request threads and pretending like they’re anything but.

Too much stuff at the same time.

I’d start with

General condi damage – this will have an impact on many professions. Lowering the formulas.

Fix broken stuff

Grenade trait – everyone knows
Ranger Taunt – goes through evades
Blinding Dissipation – goes through evades

This stuff is bugged, so it needs a fix. There is no a discussion about if is op or not, it’s bugged.

After this, we’ll continue to analyze the balance.

Finally found someone that cries more than you?

You missed some

26: Death Shroud CD increased to 50s
27: Wells and Marks cannot be applied one on top of each other, the previous one will explode
28: Life blast damage reduced by 60%
29: Dark path, removed chill and bleed , CD increased from 15s to 25s
30: Scepter, removed bleed from chain 1 and 2, 3rd chain attack applies bleed, poison removed
31: Signet of spite: now trigger well of blood at target location 1s cast time
32: Minions CD starts from the moment of death ( like ele summons )
33: Wells damage reduced by 40%
34: Deathly claws damage reduced by 80%

Thoughts? I’ll add some idea regarding necro traits soon

Good thing they listened to you in GW2 beta because you know… That’s how it has been forever.

Moderator!. Please delete this thread, Thanks

Booyah. Mr. Pierce for the uppercut.

The question is…why you guys are not yet employed by some major developer company.
From the moment that you guys know it all, even more than the devs and ofc more than the rest of us mortals…what stopping you from making your own great MMO?
I’m sure Blizzard, EA, Trion..would like to have a word for you…

Maybe because no company will hire someone with stupid ideas like your necro changes.

Yes..but meanwhile there is no need for further discussion here..it’s anyway the same 6-7 individuals, let’s move on…

Your necro ideas are ..sarcasm? right? troll maybe? if you were serious about it, well .. I find it hilarious!

Might as well remove the elementalist from the game with these ideas.

Nothing about the ele is OP beside the burning on d/d. All the OP stuff is from other classes.

Anyone surprised by Lordrosicky making another “NERF EVERYTHING BESIDES MY 2 CLASSES” thread? It’s all he ever does.

This would be the most important of all changes, even more important than a grenade barrage fix.

10/10 completely reasonable. Those pesky people who arent my class should have to try much harder than I do.

-10000000000000

In summary…delete elementalist

Jesus kittening christ, ridiculous nerf requests, man this gotta be a troll post. U got to be trolling man.

I agree with a few. The rest is kinda insane.

I’d say power block having a 10s icd would be fairer. Also, shatter damage isn’t an issue, the zerker amulet is AFAIK.

Also, why all the Ele hate lol?

I’ve literally seen Henry pull two consecutive all-nighters at the British Library researching these suggestions. For that only, he deserves eternal respect.

Obviously the only way to bring back counterplay is to remove all amulets, runes and sigils. Better get rid of other classes too. Warrior only now. Should probably only play on Foefire too…

No items. Warrior only. Final Dest, I mean…Foefire.

naw this list is horrible, your suggestions would bring back the meta of gw2 when it first came out when bunkers ruled the land.

Anyone else remember all the bunkers and all it became about was who could kick who off the point in able to cap it. The MM bunker necros/guardians/eles/warriors, i recalled whole matches fighting at mid in 3 vs 3 and 4 vs 4 and no one dieing. I like some of the ideas but you have 25 up there and 20 of them are absolutely horrible.

Also if your asking people on this forum if there a good idea and they agree with you thats not a good sign. Everyone on this forum comes on here to complain including myself about things they would like to see so there build gets better.

Heck you have people arguing over what class takes skill to do, the answer is all of them if you are good at them but the heavy majority of people in this game are below average in actual pvp.

Which brings my last point, almost all of these changes you suggested are hurting offense which is not a good thing when bunkers in the game are extremely effective. There are bunker necros/guardians/eles builds that will not die in 1 vs 1 situations and your talking about reducing dmg …………………… (longest pause and stare ever)

Bruh…..why?

/15 whys

I agree, but i think that all damage should be reduced by 50% in spvp to promote build variety and you would have to chain cc properly to get enemies off the point to cap it.

Also thief and mesmer need to be fixed, there is literally no counterplay.

Stop feeding the kittening trolls.

Sounds like this guy doesn’t know how to play against the meta. Instead of pretending to be an omniscient dev, go learn counter play.
