Guild Wars 2

Is it planned to remove or nerf the downed state in PvP and WvW? Can I expect changes, or will it stay how it is?
I just want to know if there is any sence to continue playing this game. The downed state and especially rally destroys the whole balance and fun in this game for me.

They nerfed the downed state hard with the last patch. If they nerf it any more they can just remove it completely. And if they remove it they can just as well fire their whole PvP force since I (and most I know) won’t stick around past such a huge mistake.

The downed state and how it works is one of the very key features in GW2 PvP. And one of the bigger reasons to the good team oriented gameplay the game has.

Downed state is the counter to oneshots. I think there should be Utility skills which drastically reduces the time to finish people (Make quickness for downed state only and reduce CD by 50% ? ).

Sorry you dislike the downstate in GW2. I tend to enjoy it. And agree with Rythgar. The only thing that needs fix in downstate is the stomp that causes infinite loop bug. Which is going on 15 days now.

The downstate is ok – and its an tactical issue – i dont wanna miss it.
But some downed-skills are just not balanced and i hope there will be a rework.
And it shouldnt be possible to stomp in stealth. No possibility to counter it for many classes.

It’s no different from stability stomping, or using Mist Form to stomp. Except it’s worse since you can be CC’d.
