Guild Wars 2

after all this time, warriors, wearing heavy armor and carrying eavy weapons are still the fastest profession to get from point A to B, no other profession can outrun them or even catch them if they decide to flee… and don’t bother trying to CC them cuz it does not work they just keep going… it’s insane…

is this ever going to be addressed? even if they don’t get nerfed, will other professions be able to at least manage to stay in range?

And I thought that Thieves are the fastest in PvP.

You learn new things everyday.

I had no idea eles were so slow, either.

Perma swiftness engie with CC and blocks can easily catch ppl or flee too…

everybody is too fast!! My eyes aaaaahhhh!!!

Well, every class can be fast.
Matter is what you want to do in PvP and how you can contribute for your team.

When I go for full bunker/heal Guardian I’m focused on sitting on the point and not getting out of it – so I don’t chase people.

I support teammates with heals, boons and additional ressing from downed states – sometimes with little bit of dps, but somehow I turn out to be focused soon enough anyway.

Except revenant.

I did play that class on 1st Beta only.

From what I know for now, Revenant still isn’t 100% available for Beta tests.
It lacks for example Sword weapon for main hand so we don’t know what skills it has – maybe a leap like Warrior does – mobility.

Hence, we still have no access to all specializations for it, so we don’t know if it has a passive trait for +25% movement speed or Swiftness like Engineer.

For now, Revenant is disappointing because it’s Power Build is very weak and is too much focused on Condition Damage.

Really?

What about necromancer?

necro has some viable options: the warhorn, with the daze is a nice stomp interrupt. spectral walk with the added life force and return . the signets are now useful if you trait the condition return. death shroud can be trait’d for quickness. so yea , whats your problem?

Ehh are we talking about the same thing?

This was only about how fast professions are and hands down necro is the slowest of them all (not counting revenant since it isnt finished yet).

Guardian is also slow as a turtle, and mesmer, and even ranger cannot get any swiftness so he can only use the gs3 or sword2 chain…

EDIT: Ranger and guardian can get swiftness, of course, but also necro, so all in all they are slow professions .-.

Maybe but necros are slower due the lack of non target-required gap closer.

By the way mesmer also can get swiftness, not perma swiftness but they can get it. See http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Temporal_Curtain

pff, you none mesmers and your walking!
try getting across the map in a LITERAL INSTANT

Yes, and also with the signet, sry I didnt put mesmer too… But that said, he doesnt have more gap closers than necro, being sword2 and DS2 a little bit the same…

You must play Guardian or Necro lol

Even Rangers have Gs3, Sword 2 + lightning flash + sword 2
hell, an engineer can keep up with a war if they’re smart or have rocket boots handy

Without high landspeed, Killshot Warrior would be dead as a doornail

Some things need that high mobility.

you talking about GS/sw/x warrior with bulls charge and on Rampage? because hell i can’t even catch a mesmer with my GS/axe/shield i always get kitted or killed with those 1.2k meter range pointing classes. stop whining people on this forum always cry if they can’t kill other classes even if its their fault not outplaying the other player.
