Guild Wars 2

is it just me, or does ANET seem to make the balance worse every single patch?

Came back to this game and now conditions are still wtfstrong and defensive… everyone does more burst damage? Some defensive/heal builds got nerfed? I thought you guys were adding in a “resistance” buff that would be a decent counter to conditions since a full cond clear every 40+ seconds isnt a counter at all but that resistance buff is few and far between.

What the hell is going on in balance land? IS there a balance land?

condi will get better once more access to resistance exists, besides that and bugged class skills only a few things here and there need balancing.

Engi: “Mesmers bursts are op please nerf!”
Mesmer: “Your the one with broken nades!!”
Guardian: “No fix Ele’s I r can’t win them”
Ele: “Your group dmg is insane in groups nub!”
Necro: “You’re one to speak infidel!”
Thieves: “Nubs kek enjoy this 6k backstab”
Ranger: “I hate you all equally..”
Warriors: “Hey guys what’s up?”

Engi: “My class is the hardest to play”
Mesmer: “My class is the hardest to play”
Guardian: “Remove Engi grenade bug”
Ele: “My class is the hardest to play”
Necro: “Remove Engi grenade bug”
Thieves: “My class is the hardest to play”
Ranger: “Remove Engi grenade bug”
Warrior “Remove Engi grenade bug”

I think the balance is improving. Now not only thief but also mesmer and engi can 1-shot you from stealth. Just 5 classes to go!

You’ve got warriors wrong though, they’re more like

In case you haven’t noticed, this game is now a parody of Gw2 PvP, which itself was a parody of Gw1 PvP.

Not a bad idea on the specializations though: the UI looks cool, and in theory the simplification of things sounds good. But once again the pacing and general feel of balance seems way off in PvP. You insta-kill people or you drown them in condis.

Or you play ranger and pray that somebody who isn’t you makes a mistake.
