I started ranked pvp for the first time in this season. Every match I play at least half of the players are necromancers or warriors.

Are there balance problems in gw2 pvp?

I would say Warrior is the problem, and Necro is a response to that.

Warrior can deal immense amounts of damage with basically no counterplay except boon corrupt. Necro has lots of on-demand boon corrupt, so it’s a good choice in the meta. Warrior gets stability, immunity to direct damage, and like 30 seconds of resistance. The only option is to corrupt resistance and transfer back the condi bomb.

Of course, you could play Scrapper or Ele which survive with their own invulns/heals, or Mesmer or Thief, which escape, but IMO Necro is best for actually dealing with Warriors rather than just running away for 30 seconds.

How the hell does daredevil counter reaper. Necros in general have a lot of aoe and create a no go zone for thiefs. Not to mention they are impossible to burst down thanks to their health sponge.

It really depends on the environment too. The big problem with necroes in general is they have way too much condition access via corruptions and conditions native to their skills. Thief can dodge and cleanse as well as kite while necro is in reaper shroud. Since most run Nightmare Runes (A fear relying on your opponent simply attacking you?! Wonder why it’s so overwhelmingly popular lol!) you can try getting it to proc with shortbow from a safe distance but haven’t tried proccing it with shortbow 3 but hopefully the evade frame would pre-cleanse the proc.

Still not 30 seconds, and nobody’s spamming healing signet just to get its resistance. I have maybe used it as last ditch resistance when low on health a handful of times. The reason being is that if you blow your healing signet, it’s not going to take much to kill you after.

Well, I agree 24/29 is not 30/30 but no reason to shoot mouth off. However, you should spam your healing signet if you clash up against another condi player … or stay in low ruby. Your choice.

Or you could just cleanse the congitions, because almost no one cares to Dodge burst skills, but every one complains when they get hit.

Btw another condi player? Not every warrior runs condition. You know, even past the supposed skill barrier of low ruby.

Because thieves don’t need to stand in the AoE. They jump in, stun lock and burst, then port out during shroud. Even if a reaper can does well against a thief in a 1 v 1, the stun burst against reapers is devastating in team fights.

And if the thief brings Impact St Ike, there are few better targets for a full down than a block-less necro.

I have no problem winning against condi players, and low ruby? I’ve blown through almost half of ruby in the last 2 hours. I was mid-sapphire last night, so I’m fairly happy with my progression.

You should actually use your heal signet against condi bursts cause you already have regen through traits.

And this is exactly what I do. If Berserker Stance is on cooldown and I get hit with a bomb I know I won’t survive, I use it. It’s just fairly rare.
