Guild Wars 2

Am i suppose to stare at my monitor with my eye balls touching the screen just to see wtf they are doing so i don’t get completely facerolled?.. i usually don’t have trouble against warriors until i faced them littles one where i cannot tell what weapon they are using until i am already hit by an earthshaker or eviscerate.

Unfortunately, that is why most teams run asuran characters. Some animations are already hard to watch out for or are buried by flashier stuff.

It’s also bad for viewship too…I really wish this issue would be solved.

Asuras are a fine example of natural selection. Soon, they will evolve, creating a new race, which will be even smaller, as nature dictates.

The asura advantage is definitely most obvious on warriors with their variety of telegraphed skills that require dodging: Earthshaker, Staggering Blow, Backbreaker, Pin Down, Kill Shot, Hundred Blades, Skull Crack, Eviscerate; the list goes on.

Idk whether I should make an asuran for the advantage (actually, to not be at a disadvantage!), or play what race I like aesthetically. It’s a really kittenty dilemma.

Yea it’s an issue but advantages are what they are anything to get the upper hand in tourneys will be used. I personally have one human warrior that I play, especially for 2v2/3v3 since asurans are banned and an asuran for 5v5 tourneys bc well they havnt been banned from there yet (don’t know why exactly).
Hopefully they fix this issue so there arnt any racial advantages as this was something they swore would never happen.

Just look at esl.All warriors are asuras…it’s annoying and needs to be fixed.

Pvp magnifying glass from gem store for 1700 gems. Makes all Asura models seem larger. With the epic amount of ele now drifting round, no more hiding in the Asura ele polygon particle mess by the Asura warrior while the Asua engineer spams grenades making it awesome for everyone to see what is going on in a game that dared to be ‘animation focused.’

I don’t even understand this, Eviscerate is such an easy skill to see, even on an Asura.

especially the 0.3 seconds on eviscerate animation (0,2 reaction time + latency) so easy to dodge. Earth shaker is way slower animation tho.

Yes, game claims to be balanced with an animation based combat system, I’ve complained about this 2 years ago and nothing will be done about it. An, I’d like to say easy fix, could be an implementation of an option checkbox “All character models are X”. Drop down box to select race, or just make it human/asura/norn. The cats can be annoying as they Lean right over there weapons with that hunched back.
