Guild Wars 2

Roe.3679:

2. Death shroud starts at 0 for every match, and locks a player out of their utilities, heal and elite. It also has no condition removal. I take it to never played necro?

If you are not a MM you should start a match with 22% minimum not 0.

balance fees ok for the moment. i’d watch phantasm dmg on low toughness targets, but too early to tell.

Guys, it’s true. Written in Stone Ele has been dominating the queues all weekend!!!

Necro
All that stuff is good enough. Just remove the fear proc on Nightmare runes altogether. Change it to something else that’s not a CC. Otherwise, a good fear chain from a necro is smart play on their part. They held skills and waited for the right time to use them. Remove Nightmare runes giving them a free initial CC and they’ll have to play a lot more defensive, making the fear chain harder to pull off.

Elementalist
I haven’t run into any that have caused trouble.

Warrior
Not sure if healing signet needs nerfed or other warrior heals need a buff. Four points the Defense trait line for Cleansing Ire needs to be less mandatory. Removing the adrenaline gain when hit from Cleansing Ire would dramatically reduce Hambow’s condition removal ability and cut out some healing from Adrenal Health.

Engineer
Incendiary Powder needs a big nerf. Even without Balthazar runes, it’s a huge chunk of damage that can’t be avoided at all and requires no extra work on the part of the engineer.

Incendiary Ammo is okay. Yes, it’s a lot of burning. However, it’s also on a long cooldown and all at once, making a cleanse more effective against it, and if not used properly, can be entirely wasted. It also requires use of Flamethrower, which is currently not a very condition damage friendly weapon.

All necros can start a match with 22%.

You can summon minions in the pre-game and change utilities in the 10 seconds before the match starts to “sac” your minions. Each one you can sac in the first 10 seconds of the match gives you 11% ds. Experienced necros usually start a match by sacing 3 minions so 33% life force.

^ that right there needs a fix

There is still a difference between the invisible thief backstab which is very hard to dodge and the Signet of Spite which is very easy to dodge (there are barely any other utilities that have the same clear graphical clarity). People should really not whine so often about Necro’s. Only Minion Masters and the Nightmare armor should have some changes. Necro’s have a lot of weaknesess as well, just find them and adjust your style of playing to that.

Just nerf Nightmare Runes.

People actually want ele to be nerfed back to nothing?
Now we stand a chance & people are QQing….. lol
Sorry, I’m sure eles are tired of being everyones meal

Ragnar.3916:

surprise,
ele is ridiculous op after this patch.

probably double ele meta again

Yes, nerf eles back to nothing because they’re so OP lol

Yeah like others have said already I bet you play a Mesmer, lol. Pulls, stuns and dazes for daaayss.. If any profession needs a nerf it’s Mesmers and that’s the only profession I’ve ever thought needed one. Not only are they confusing as hell to fight they can jerk you around like a ragdoll if you don’t have stability or enough stunbreakers. And as a Necro, stability is pretty well out of the question unless I want to go in to Plague and cheese blind spam them to death.
As for Sig of Spite, yeah I could see this needing a bit of a nerf. Personally I really dislike using anything that’s like an insta-win button. Sig of Spite is kitten close. It’s the “I don’t know how to stack all those conditions myself so it’s a good thing there’s a button that does it all in one attack” utility.

Mesmers are in need of help and have no viable build for tPvP.

Uhtameit.2413:

About engineer : incendiary powder was already moved to master tier and engineer has no other way to do reliable condition damage other than that since the auto attacks suck and the bombs/grenades won’t work unless you’re close to the target. For instance, duel an ele with your engineer and ask him to run Stop, Drop and Roll. See how much damage you’ll do.

Pleasure to help.

So this is everything to OP has lost to. What a long list.

Dont forget immobilize stacks

When they nerf things like stealth then we can talk about fear. It’s one of the necro’s ONLY defenses. Lets also nerf invulnerability accross the board and decrease timers on blocks. Pls.

nerf everyone! seriously there is a post for every class on these forums about 1 class complaining about other classes beating them and how unfair it is. When is enough, enough?

Wait I dont think anybodys complained about Guards in a while?
