Guild Wars 2

So somehow my earlier post got deleted and infracted even though it demonstrated clear compliments to the developer team for their proactive steps towards great balance in this game. Thus, i’ll try to really be clear about my compliments in this thread to remove any potential doubt.

I love anet’s move to improve game balance by homogenizing the player base into one profession. This improves balance because we now all have the same abilities available to use and no one can call foul that their opponent had an unfair ability advantage. To achieve this balance of homogenization…anet took the necessary first steps, in my humble opinion, to begin quasi-deleting unnecessary classes (like the warrior). I say – Job well done!! and I beg anet to Finish what they have started…and bring the other profs into a state of non-use … so we can all begin to play this wonderful game on a very even, balanced, level playing field. Now, I will not be the one to state what that ONE class should be…but it appears, again in my humble opinion, to be either the elementalist…or perhaps the guardian. I am indifferent to eventual victor …. I will play whatever ultimately reigns … but again… I think the balance efforts have been extraordinary and I want to give major props and compliments to the design and balance team at anet for mastering what would otherwise be a very difficult task of balancing a ton of variables.

Please…if this is somehow rude or disruptive to anyone… please educate me. Because I am trying to give praise…respect…love… for what is a remarkable feat of balancing achievement.

Thank you

5 ele’s vs 5 eles = perfect balance.

They didn’t even say they fixed the tornado bug >.> so 5 ele v 5 ele=unbalanced

It’s in the patch notes Noctis.

ah i see it, nvm

wow… i’m afraid Karl can’t win. If ppl think 5 eles vs. 5 eles is still unbalanced… there is no hope.

none the less, I will try to explain why this is actually very balanced. If you are playing a class with five total abilities… and I play the exact same class with the exact same five abilities… then theoretically there is no difference that distinguishes us other than our skill. Given that maps and latencies are variables that not even God can control… we will assume their influence on balance is negligible as all are affected by that environment. But, the skills you can use versus me… if they are different…could potentially be better and could be explaining why you beat me. See, it is not that you are better than me… just your class is better than my class. BUT – if we all play the same class… even that excuse should be removed.

Again – great job here…. we are moving towards a brighter…dare i say e-sport…. future!

4 months to fix a bug which lets people res themselves is very impressive. lol
