Guild Wars 2

Since its nearly time, has anyone come up with any unique build compositions, with the new traits and all?

Nope, because most traits are garbagr, and cost money to unlock.

I just hope they didnt make Mesmer utterly useless… As far as I can tell we only got nerfs.

nothing new for mes. gm traits are bad and not well placed and apart from bugfixes anet hasnt put any effort in my class. builds will stay the same.

Survival of the Fittest as the GM trait.

I am curious to see the full list of changes in game, but as far as I can tell for my Guardian, my build will not change one tiny bit… Except I’m curious to try the new Celestial amulet hehe.

Definitely going to try the new celestial amulett. Maybe with an HGH build?

stone heart ftw.

thief killer xD

I need to see what the lesser trait changes and skill changes are first. No idea what looks good for the new GM traits until I see what it will work nicely with. Also, they have a major announcement tomorrow along with the patch. I am super hype for tomorrow.

Nothing more fun to watch than optimism slowly turning to anger and QQ. A wise man once said “expect the worst and you will never be disappointed.” This is especially true for guild wars 2 or any MMORPG or any game made by Bioware and Bethsoft or EA (proper) or activision or sega or ubisoft, valve games, crapcom, microsoft, actually almost any game company that is not nintendo and sony and project CD.

I guess I will try a spirit ranger…

will stay playing ele.

I’ll try to make my MM build stronger. I may even try making it Celestial. Who knows, I’m crazy!

p/p regenerating thief,
crit immune conjure ele,
condi(ish) guard (burning + retaliation)
Phalanx Strength+Forceful Greatsword warrior.
Confusion Thief?

i’m not gonna try powerblock mesmer but i expect them to be in the mix of builds that people are trying.

What lesser trait changes? I thought only 40 new GM traits were being introduced, plus some balance nerfs to all 8 classes as usual…

Players will after fork out gold+skill points for new GM traits or get them for free doing certain PvE related stuff. Please Dulfy get the guide out fast to make it fairly painless.

The new amulets cost 10 gold to unlock.
New runes 5 gold.
New sigils 2 gold.

AFAIK you after pay gold to unlock those, no other way.

So pay 1st, create new builds 2nd.

Ofcourse those main stream build on twitch, definitely esports.

Wait.. so we should buy all the amulets/runes/sigils on each character now? :/ or will those become like obsolete amulets..

Those are still free, its just the new ones you after pay for…

sigil of battle, hoelbrak runes(if they are still the best) – and the new might sharing trait. Maybe 5/0/20/30/15 or something like that. -see the might share as support. Can be Rabid/Carrion or Berserker, looking at Hambow still for fire field blast or sword/Horn +bow for same thing if condition. – Warbanner elite for constant might sharing. OP!

Stone heart 0/10/30/10/20
lightning rod ele (will prolly suck)
staff ele 0/0/30/20/20 bunker

heal on crit s/p and p/p thief with signet of malice (will prolly suck)

turret engi
synaptic overload power engi

All of the builds. But most especially condi guardian.

You have to admire Anet’s attempt at getting players to break out that CC. Well it might work on me tomorrow.
