Elementalist: “Just ignore me standing on the fringe of this fight spamming auras…I swear its not doing anything…..Also, pls don’t interrupt my 5s channeled skill that doesn’t have nearly the payoff for the risk of using it!”

Guardian: Block, block, block, invuln, invuln, invuln, block, block, block…ZOMG SO MUCH DAMAGE FROM WOMBO COMBO….Finally, its low on health….AND FULL HEAL!"
Mesmer: “Let’s all spam clones and shatters!! OH NO, I am being pressured!!! LUL, BLOCK BLOCK BLOCK, INVULN, INVULN, INVULN….AND….YOU ARE A BIRD!”
Necromancer: HERE COMES BIG DAMAGE FOR EVERYONE!!! INCLUDING ME!!! PLEASE PROTECT ME!!
Ranger: Heal, heal, heal!!! YES!!! Keep trying to kill me, I can heal all day like this! Ignore that little pet that can tank all day and does 80% of my damage!!
Revenant: Evade,evade, evade, teleport, block, block, block, invuln, invuln, invuln….HA, there is 2/3 of your life with 1 skill! I am so good!! Just pls keep those condis away from me!
Thief: Evade, evade, evade – there goes 1/2 your life in 2 skills! Learn to dodge my dodge!! Evade, evade, evade! I am so skill! Evade, evade, evade….OH NOES!! A CONDI APPLIED OUTSIDE MY INVULN FRAMES!!! MUST LEARN TO EVADE CONDI TICKS!
Warrior: Bashes face into opponent….Bashes face into opponent….Bashes face into opponent….It’s ok if I eat that damage…I’ll just passively heal or invuln if need be! Continues to “skillfully” bash face into opponent

“Buff my main class, nerf everything else. "

Lawl @ the “There goes 1/2 your life in 2 skills!” comment
How would you expect an assassin class to play, get half your life after a whole minute of fighting?
And yeah the damage / condis on dodge are really dumb, especially the ones on wep sets.

TIL: rev has an invuln xD
Guardian: I’m going to deal 1000000000 damage to you in the span of like 2 seconds while I am invuln, blocking, healing, dodging block. block block block invulning for a good 20 seconds. Our weakest build is burn gaurd…… the WEAKest is a build that can 100-0 you in a matter of seconds while we block everything and teleport to anyone we want. And block everything. And plus we block everything. AND, we heal like crazy. We don’t even have to build ANY freaking healing power and will healy close to 2000 health per ability cast. And we have an F3 to heal us also. And we keep healing. Stupid necros have to hit multiple enemies just to get anywhere close to the kinds of heals we get just by clicking a button. get rekt silly necros!
Necromancer: im going to give you a bunch of conditions which will gradually tick damage on you over about 20 seconds, just don’t cleanse them. Oh and try not to attack me because i’ll probably die before i cast any of my spells since they take eight days to complete. Plus, Im a condition bot and cant do anything except use conditions. The class is actually called the Conditioner. Like the stuff you use in the shower. *We also have a skill that lets our attack become unblockable BUT ALL OF OUR ATTACKS ARE SO FREAKING SLOW that it actually only allows like one good attack in there.. IF YA DONT CC US!! XD_TXDT__T-_-T-T_T_T_T (crying and laughing) Also, we only have HEALTH as a defense. Just.. whatever you do: Dont focus us please. And please don’t CC us because we have like zero stability and our elite utility gives us some stab but you can just cc us our of our cast to stop us from getting any stab. Isn’t this fun !?!!? (you can easily tell no devs play this class and honestly i don’t blame them)
Ranger: I’m just going to heal, root, heal, root, attack from halfway across the map, heal, root, and let my mini boos AI pet do most of the work cuz actual kiting is too hard.
Warrior: invulnerable. Perma invuln. We can use conditions or just go straight power or do whatever we want. Thanks anet. we heal every second no matter if we’re getting hit or not we just always heal and keep healing and we can disengage and heal and engage and heal and go invuln and deal insane damage and heal every second and block.
Rev: I do my one move to become invuln AND deal insane damage to your face. Ty anet!
Mesmer: Conditions and invisibility and millions of clones and invis and blocks and you cant even hit me and you have conditions on you and im invis and teleporting and blocking and invis again and giving you more conditions and shatters clones and more clones and my face is smeared across my keys
Thief: Hi im evading and dealing you tons of damage while im evading and going stealth and evading and dealing a;lkdfjas;ldkjg;alhkja;lhkj

You actually get invuln frames from unrelenting assault (your enemies see “invuln”, IIRC even though its supposed to be an evade), and Infuse light is an invuln (in practice, except even better b/c it turns damage into healing).
Or… you could nitpick more!

This just in, Burn Guard is new “OP Plez Nurf 100-0 class” lol….
Can’t take you seriously… Guards can block for 5 seconds on F3 + 3 second Elite + 5 seconds of F3 again.
That’s a solid 13 seconds of “invuln” but we only have 1 viable instant cast trap during that time. Where’s this OP damages during invulns again???

On second thought, I actually think you’re right. Guards are actually in a good spot right now. DH just has a larger build pool and some cool playstyles which is why a lot of people are picking it up.
After those blocks guards are pretty fragile for the most part depending on the build. I agree with you man.
guard – a fair and balanced matchup, right after initial 20s of stripping half of it’s blocks, traps, heals and invulni at range. 25s if guard is good.
ele – he’s underpowered. All the way through his 4 minutes of holding point under fire.
mesmer – daze x10, condies x20, insta win, yay skill!
warr – "soft counter? wtf is ‘soft’ "?
engineer – mecha kittenroach. just won’t die, and when you think you finally got him – nope! auto-invulni, goes down to his real size, and runs around under you feet like a kittenroach that it is!
thief – pro high skill class. Only pro high skill classes have 4k crits on their autos. Plus obvious sigil of air and/or fire. You need to be pro to kill with thief!
ranger – darth vader recently confirmed deathstar was actually druid’s staff with extra batteries hooked up to it. Rest of it was just for looks. And fear my pets! All 2 of them (scale and bristleback!)
necro – kill me if you can! Hey…guys..easy…I was talking to one guy, not 5…
revenant – surge, dragon breath, surge, shield bubble, absorb damage heal. Oh and surge.
Reading this thread one might think thieves are OP, meanwhile in matches: “thief reroll, you gonna lose us game”.

Regardless of what the opponent sees, unrelenting assult doesn’t give invuln frames. The revenant will still be affected like things such as auras, wards, and retal which true invuln would negate, but evade does not.
