Guild Wars 2

Playing warrior now it is reduced to blowing Rampage for essentially free damge and then trying to burst your opponent down before your 2 endure pain cds are burned.

It makes warrior boring, awful to play against and has killed every alternative build.

Warrior needs more overall damage on its weapons and a heavy nerf to rampage and endure pain. Remove 90% percent of the current warrior efficiency in those 2 skills and transfer it to the rest of the class.

Make the class more intrinsically durable (better healing) and less dependent on invulnerability CDs.

People survive with 80%+ HP after mesmer popped Moa on them, and you have a problem to kite someone for 15 sec with your weapon and utility skills?

Truly, Warrior needs to be nerfed…not.

I concede the tittle was poorly written (due to character limit), but you could have at least read the post, its like 5 lines.

I think you don’t know what you have written.

Despite the fact that Warrior in matter of spiking is weaker than Guardian, it’s comparably durable and posses much higher mobility for example.

The weapon sets given to Warrior makes it a class capable of fighting outnumbered and leaving current fight at any time.

If you will boost damage on Warrior’s weapons, you will only make the class more deadly and ease fights where a single warrior is outnumbered.

Due to high HP, Warrior doesn’t really need Endure Pain which only put all incoming direct damage to 0, because it’s basic defenses are already high enough to survive long enough to stomp anyone.

What you must realize is that Endure Pain isn’t a God Mode and infact it doesn’t do anything beyond prolonging Warrior’s death.

During Endure Pain, Warrior is still vulnerable to all CCs and Conditions available in game.

Well, to be frank, Warrior is at this moment the most balanced class and doesn’t really need anything in matter of boosting or nerfing :P

warrior needs bugfixes and the shout & warhorn nerfs reverted- then something needs to be done about offhand axe and rifle. it doesn’t need nerfs. certainly not an endure pain nerf in a burst meta… i mean dude.

i think people are getting a false sense of what good and viable are from ele and mesmer. these classes (builds really) are OP, they are not what we should be aiming for. classes like warrior, guardian, necro etc are fine. sure some tweaking is needed, but nothing like another rampage nerf and an endure pain nerf.

zerk ham/gs is good. i’m playing bunk and it certainly works in ranked, as do multiple other things like skullcrack. support and condi could do with a bit off a buff but otherwise (apart from bugs) the class is pretty good.

lal at endure pain nerf…just lal….ok cool, remove distortion on mesmer and signet of stone and protect (protect me goes to the pet but still) me on ranger first…cause tbh, lore wise these classes shouldnt be able to ignore damage at all unlike a warrior who also has no stealth at all (uh ow) lorewise…also still crying over rampage, man i main warrior 24/7 as in forever….never ever do I roll rampage, its not OP and in fact is imo a gimmick elite….nerf it idc dont use it anyway. ps players that ask for endure pain nerfs are new players confirmed, cause there is not a single pvp veteran out there who has any trouble with endure pain

I have to admit. Warrior is looking a bit weak in PvP at the moment. On one hand, it’s nice after the long reign of the HamBow. On the other.. Warriors went from the top of the food chain to the lower middle. “Oh, that had to hurt!”

Have not said once that double endure pain + pluss rampage is op, i have said how ever that it locks us into it and its kittenty design.

And that was all that needed to be said
Pay attention to his bolded statement

They need to bring back some of the longbow builds. If the healing and condi removal on shoutbow prepatch was just nerfed a little bit it would have been fine. I don’t think the problem with warriors is too little damage, or double endure pain. The real problem is that their cele builds are pretty much dead. Maybe a few of the weapons need buffs (mace), but otherwise it’s an issue with utilities or traits for most builds.

@Trevor Boyer. Mesmer has already suffered huge nerfs. Ele has been hit as well with changes.

If I recall correctly you were the ranger calling for even more buffs on pets and longbow. Be that as it may;

Mesmer is very squishy as is Ele. It’s not my fault that players fail to dodge a shatter. It’s not the Ele’s fault that players aren’t tuned in enough to interrupt their cycles.

Mesmer has already gotten a hard beating from the nerf bat, time to practice and get better.

@ Ithilwen
Not once did I mention anything in this forum about buffing Ranger Longbow or Ranger Pets. I did however propose making Hilt Bash and Counterattack “on the Ranger Greatsword” have the same range increments so that they stream better while running combos.

Either way! make sure your information is correct while you defend a widely acknowledged overpowered class at the same as throwing stones at players proposing changes to a widely acknowledged underpowered class. Otherwise it just doesn’t look classy.

@Trevor Boyer

Once again, I return to you what you have said to me more than once on forum;

Learn to play.

ANET has already severely nerfed Mesmer. It would be better to train and play well than to complain.

Let’s get back on the topic of warriors, please.

rampage was balanced, been unjustly nerfed recently though.

other warrior things need buffs.
