As of right now pvp in GW2 is toxic. There’s no strategy or skill other then bunker and keeping 2 points. This type of PvP was used in costume brawl in GW1 that had preset skill bar for each profession. Oh how I miss interrupting cast skills and how much more entire team was reliant of your team to do their part. It is called team PvP solo Q and paying for 1 guy you have in the party that has no idea what to do is not only costing you pip on the ladder but also causing toxic environment for rest of us. Balance of the game is supper bad. Split skills of PvP and PvE because skills in PvE needs to be stronger then PvP but at the same time those skills are OP in PvP. Anet did this and then changed in GW1 as well.

If ONLY 1 could dream and have GW1 PvP mechanics and different styles of map play with GW2 graphics this game would be PERFECT.

Gw1 was very toxic in many ways aswell. Sure, it had it’s peak in 2006 with the faction release. Back when Halls were still 6 player.
This however didn’t stop people from running EoE bomb builds instantly killing everything in halls within 5 seconds. !https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b84AU31MxCM!
Iway was in the game for how long? Making people abuse low lvl pets on warriors running around with insane hp regen. !https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHXIGaugszs!
How about Ranger spike? !https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKbav7Hl3jM!
About 2013 to present, most guilds in mAT’s runs 3 eles !http://buildwars.net/!

Bottom line, people are crying to much over class diversity and what-not and about the golden age that was gw1 when in fact gw2 have bigger class diversity than gw1 ever had.

To have anything like GW1’s combat in GW2 you’ll need to change many things, starting with the attribute system and basic mechanics. Every single build should have at least two forms of counter and counter at least another two.

The very system we have now will prompt the current problems. You have something not good enough, you buff it, and after that it’s too much combined with other things. You nerf it, and other things that were fine with it are not useless.

Loop that ranger spike guild was TERRIBLE not even executed right. My guild and myself were 1 of the top guilds holding HoH legit every single time. yes we ran spike builds sometimes but we were coordinated way better then anyone of those links you posted.

Not really the point of my post. If anything it proves my point even further how stupidity outshines skill.
Aspen has an old gvg video uploaded onto youtube with Rebel Rising vs KMD if you want to see some high lvl spike builds
