Guild Wars 2

This topic applies to tPVP only.

A lot of the tougher matches we have on Khylo center around teams running two mesmers and portaling their mates around the map for very insane responsiveness.

Are others seeing this as an issue? The initial portal stays down for 1m (15s on the 2nd portal I believe), and what we have is Mesmers (already a very strong class) portaling eachother and mates to points, and then portaling back, for some pretty amazing results.

I don’t know what the solution is. Destroyable portals? Shorter life on the initial portal (15s instead of 60s)?

I also find the portaling pretty crazy to repair trebs, but I’m not sure how imbalanced that really is.

In the end, maybe there is a counter to all of this, but as of right now I find it very difficult to overcome when facing competent teams. Thoughts? Thanks in advance.

The only counter I can think of is predict how they’re going to use their portals and then have your team thinking 2 steps ahead.

That’s what’d I do at least. Since they can react so quickly either have a Mesmer with Portal to speed things up or start playing more chess.
