Hi everybody, I recently got back in gw2 after the beta period when the new PC came home (Ya know, I raged playing with 2 fps, but beta is beta and I felt the duty to help), I was a big pvp fan as PvE, and I felt like GW2 was the first game that gave me variety of play-style on all professions. I never played a healer before in any game, or at least succeeded while trying to keep people alive, and throughout beta and the first period after the launch I really enjoyed playing a healing Engineer build, as well as a Warr Tactics, defense one (that was really op, but they fixed it with the trait requirement system) and a Guardian one. And for the first time I felt like I was succeeding on keeping alive someone… Well, atleast on 1v1 or 1v2 (the one being the teammate). But when I came back I tried ALL, I mean ALL OF THOSE BUILDS, even varying every kind of armor and necklace combination ever possible. But my healing was… crappy, it felt like, I was just throwing med kits made of jelly! Every game I played was fun and exciting, hell even if we lost 100/525… but now i feel like only the “bunker build” and “glasscannon” build are available in SPvP… So my question is, would you like to see a slight buff in the Compassion stat to see more variety? Because adding a new “archetype” in the PvP envoirement would be cool, especially if it’s not going to be OP… What’s your opinion?

If they buff compassion then you would need atomic bombs to kill bunker elementalists xD
