Guild Wars 2

For example:

Knight’s Amulet: 942 Power | 643 Precision | 643 Toughness
Cavalier’s Amulet: 942 Power | 643 Ferocity | 643 Toughness

Right now these amulets are rarely if ever used in PvP because they are main stat toughness. This is due to the fact that precision and ferocity are reliant on both eachother and power enable to be effective, while power is useful in all situations (critical and non critical).

Implement this change and i guarantee these amulets will begin to see play.

Edit: Cavalier changed to secondary toughness rather than precision.

So u want a prechange berserker amulet (why would they do this, they changed it because they don’t want this combo)?
The knight change is fine I guess, but doesn’t rly matter, if people would want to use your suggested change, they would use it now as well, with the might stacking combo, not having power as the mainstat is totally fine.

While we’re at it..

Dire Amulet: 942 Condition Damage / 643 Toughness / 643 Vitality
New Settlers amulet: 942 Condition Damage / 643 Toughness / 643 Healing

Wait no, because that’s aids, lol. I think that if a tanky stat is desired, there has to be a drawback in damage.

I don’t see why every amulet has to be available to every class….

If you take soldier and settler away from warrior it will be right in balance with other classes. Rabid, zerker, and carrion warriors do just as well as other classes. It doesn’t make sense that every single competitive PvP team must invariably include 1-2 warriors

If you give mesmer, ele, and guardian ability to use Dire it would give them viable condi build options that do not really exist yet.

and so on….

I’m in the camp that considers the amulets to have proper drawbacks. They also are distinct enough from Berserker, Soldier, and Valkyrie. I just don’t like how Knight steps on Barbarian’s toes.

I wonder if we’ll ever see Barbarian stat spread in PvE too.

Agree with chaith, the suggested combos would be too strong. Cavalier could theoretically see some play in builds that use sigil of intelligence or have high base vit and good fury uptime. Knights is probably unusable but super zerker is too good, not sure what the middle ground would be there.

Knight’s would see use in a power-meta for people who want a little more dps compared to soldier’s by giving up some defense. I wouldn’t be against making knight’s more hybrid, however (like a precision version of valkyrie’s).

The only problem with knight’s is that, because of the prevalence of condis, only a few classes could even consider them (warriors, engineers, necros – and how many power engies and necros build for sustained damage?).

Sorry, I made a typo and edited my post so that the cavalier amulet has secondary toughness in place of precision.

The main problem with the amulets at the moment is that they are mostly useless. Soldiers is flat out superior for power builds since it has main stat power.
