Guild Wars 2

1) Practically most of your utilities don’t function underwater, it make you feel half as useful.
2) Weapons, they don’t interact with the trait line well at all and limited set of choices kills it. They shouldn’t be heavily weigh by our traits but being able to get boosted by traits that are taken by land build to make them stronger. I.E : Land build focus on burst, so let say harpoon is a the weapon that deal direct dmg then this weapon should similarly reflect the weapon on land and having it burst similar to the 1 on land dealing high burst dmg.
3) Traits don’t interact well at all with weapons and the left over utilities at all.
4) No stomping underwater, you can’t end your opponent and it obviously provide a lack of strategy being so. In 1v 2+ you can never win even you are better as you can’t stomp your opponent.

A-net please rework how utilities are , make all of them workable underwater. Make give us a few choices of weapon (1 condition, 1 physical, 1 defensive) underwater and make them viable to the trait line and build on land as underwater is an addition to the game not THE STANDARD gameplay. So don;t make underwater battle seem so stand alone and part of it own world. Then you will see that your underwater conquest map will be successful.

Edit: Number 2)

Yeah. I hate it. Also if you are swimming at the top/ surface you can’t use anything and I don’t like most of the weapons. Not that balanced there with some classes only having 1 weapon and then of course some of their utility disabled.

They should improve it and then maybe some full underwater map to test and play around(not a map with only small part underwater).

Reason why Capricorn is not in the Tournament-Rotation. Something A-Net has realized ages ago.

LOL underwater was one of their big things, but it was kitten, since beta. 8More later still not fixed?o

I’m pretty sure if they spent any time trying to improve underwater combat, someone will say “why aren’t they spending time improving something people actually play?”

Regardless of that, from the way underwater combat was talked about before release, it seemed like they had it down pat but apparently not.

They did the right thing by keeping Capricorn out of the rotation.

Yes, it eventually needs to be fixed, but there are far bigger fish to fry at the moment.
