Guild Wars 2

Warriors are not in a great spot. One of the main reasons is I think, because in their dps build, they dont bring much to a group apart from dps and cc.

That is an issue, because the other classes generally do bring team wanted tools to the group in their dps build, apart from dmg and cc.

Solution.
Warriors should be able to provide some wanted team tools in their dps build.
It doesnt have to be a lot. Some are more supportive classes than others.
It just has to be enough.

Something fitting that warriors can bring:
-Power and condi dmg reductions for the group.
-Vit boosts (outside of banner).
Suggestion by The Chaos4231:
-Uncorruptable, unstealable etc. cc immunity mechanic for the group for a few sec.

Maybe not all of these in one build,
but such things can be added to existing spells and traits that we can pick in dps builds.

Example:
Rousing resilience.
On top of what it does for the warrior, it could also provide x to the group for the same duration. That x can be a certain amount of toughness or other reduction vs power dmg for the group for example.

Please share your view.

Their stances come to mind. I always use 3. Balaced stance (stab), berserker stance (resistance) and endure pain (invulerability to attacks). Make stances traitable so they give bonuses to allies, because that way you can slot for everything the current meta throws at you, which is lots of hard cc, conditions and overall high amounts of physical damage.

Fix the bug where passive balanced stance doesn’t proc when you headbutt. There’s a pretty lethal combo in that one. Now I have to either use up my slotted balanced stance, or enter berzerk to proc rousing resilience.

Bring other stuff on par a little bit. It kinda irks me that engineer is picked as the better shock trooper over warrior, and revenants also dish out good melee damage while bringing lolsupport to boot. That and murder DH, noone will miss it, because if there’s anything that ruins a warrior’s options in poop league, it’s a DH.
