Guild Wars 2

Condi mesmers, necros, p/p engies, burn guards. This kitten is aids as kitten. Can we have some way to play around condi damage besides cleanse? ie. not having confusion or torment passive damage? or maybe prioritization of condi cleanse by cleansing the highest stacks first? All condi players have to do is play defensively and land a few condis and watch you wither away. How can you be rewarding this kittening crap? While I have to completely outplay a person based on lining my bursts up. Give me a kittening break. This game is turning into garbage. You should never listen to PvErs. And please make balancing a PRIORITY since you’re doing pro leagues.

Anet actually announced at twitchcon that with the introduction of leagues, balance will be prioritized with at least 4 balance patches a year. Link:

You’re right about the soloq meta leaning toward condis. I’ve been doing fine bringing lots of cleanse. Bring AoE cleanse when you can. It can really turn team fights around.

4 balance patches a year. So, wait 3 months and maybe the condi damage will be nerfed just like D/D ele was…

I rather have 4 patches a year that was 100% about fixing bugs.

You must be new, for the first 2 years it was pretty much one balance patch every 6 months and it took the balance the opposite way it should have gone every single time, any other patch change that wasn’t living world was tool tip fixes and fixing the same bug they listed as a fix a month ago for the 3rd time. Didn’t play for a year so I have no idea what happened this year besides this garbage condition stacking PvE change being brought to PvP too.

i dont get this condi hate from some players. i see condi mesmer once every 50 matches and they are terrible in pvp. condi engis – one in 25 matches and they are predictable and not particularly strong. necros (since last patch) and guards are more common, but i wouldnt call either of them OP.

If anything i would buff bleeds and buff some condi builds on ranger and thief.
Theres a lot of condi cleanse in pvp, condi builds dont have it easy
