Guild Wars 2

Alright so..

I was trying to think of making a fun Mortar build and perhaps make it viable (yea right lols) .. and it hit me… Why don’t we make turrets like mortars? I mean… Rocket turret can become a rocket launcher…stationary slow…requires the player to actually use the rocket..same applies for every other turret.. Rifle being bullets .. flame being a flamethrower kind..etc.

That will make turret engi think about their positioning, multi task between switching kits, using the turret, and keeping the point capped. I can see a lot of possibilities in such mechanic and would be REALLY fun to play if designed properly. I really honestly believe instead of removing a certain aspect of the game (which honestly 99% of PvPers would love to have) into turning it into something positive to the game. After all, this game lacks diversity in builds in which the “meta” builds just dominate the other ones …

Just a food for thought

Maybe nerf the class in general and they would only need to reduce the hp on the Thumper.

Yeah, that’s the thing that sort of baffles me about all of this. People keep complaining about turret engies and conveniently forget that the class is OP with celestial too. And they keep having to get nerfed, and always have some sort of back up that ends up seeming just as effective. I think the way kits are needs to be looked at, and I think the class in general could use some serious rebalancing. Specifically tool/grenade kits in comparison to the other 3, and possibly a better way to handle builds that would like to specialize in one of their other utility types.
