I dont see how being able to ignore everything i do and leaving me with dodge roll only is not taking my keyboard away.

Also if ANYONE is facerolling that would be warriors.

lolwut?

A warrior in berserker stance can’t be kited, can’t be blinded, can’t be poisoned and on some builds can’t be even damaged.

On some professions, the only way to stop a warrior faceroll with an hammer in his hand is through blindness or kiting. Good luck surviving against a warrior in zerker stance.

Please, explain me how it is a counter to faceroll.
It pretty much sounds like a an halfway godmode to me.

Meanwhile, non-condition builds can still do near full damage while the stance is active.

Conditions are far superior to power build in Spvp and that’s more damaging to the spvp meta than berserkers stance will ever be. Tone down the damage a lot of condition builds can dish out and then we’ll talk about reducing the effectiveness of berserkers stance.

I really don’t see how you can’t stay on a point for 8 seconds rather effortlessly while a warrior pops Berserkers stance as long as you’re not a glass cannon. Any class with a knock down can just force the warrior off the point, and if need be, dodge one of their timely bursts. If the warrior opts to pop his stability and endure pain as well, then congratulations, he’s popped all his abilities for the next 50 seconds.

And all classes have builds to deal with a warrior. Guardians can essentially become un hittable for those 8 seconds; they also have plenty of utilities to knock you off the point. Tanky engis can shrug your damage off or alternatively knock you off the point with their various utilities, and then start mine spamming you to death. Mesmers have always destroyed warriors, and that hasn’t changed. Minion mancers and spirit rangers are often too zergy for the typical warrior build to even target them effectively.

Thiefs tend to suffer if they’re not able to blind spam and invis doesn’t allow them to cap point, so they’ll probably have to disengage and find another point. Tough luck for them, but it isn’t mandatory that you take every point you see. If a warrior is guarding one point, then the thief will have a numbers advantage elsewhere.

It’s working as intended.
The game is mostly designed around builds, classes and hard counters. If u seek a game designed around mostly twitchy skills u should search somewhere else, this game will never provide that.

so am i the only one seeing these gs/rifle warriors running berserker setup with frenzy/berserker stance/endure pain? endure pain makes them immune to damage for 5 seconds. berserker stance makes them immune to condition and cc conditions. last stand trait takes place of cleansing ire because berserker stance makes it so theres no need to cleanse anything. so yeah for 5-6 seconds your fighting an immortal dps warrior and thats all he needs with frenzy and volley. then im over here in necro town left with no life force or elite.

Weak, very weak :/

Berserker Stance is not really a problem. You know that they have this and you just wait for it. I haven’t meet any Warrior 1v1 on both Necro and Ranger that could kill me in those 8 seconds when I was prepared. If you’re a necro, that’s probably nice idea to do some power damage with DS or just simply hop into Plague and don’t give a kitten
I’d say that Engi’s Automated Response coupled with their insane tanking is far greater problem

I would honestly just find a new game to pvp in. A year in and the devs are still inserting hard counter bullkitten like diamond skin while completely missing the things that need to actually be balanced. The condition system is an absolute mess and the game simply isn’t designed for people who like tactics, soft counters, mind games, baiting, or strategy. It’s designed and catered to morons who want skillless “boom headshot!” gameplay in a fantasy setting.

Cut stances in half and engure pain but let healing signet,it would balanace things up a lot

I remember back in the days where thieves were considered gods the second they entered stealth. The difference is that a thief can still be killed in stealth, while a warrior immune to almost all damage with insane burst and cc on top of it… Even more than a thief.

It’s always people exaggerating stances while trying to prove a nonexistent point
