Guild Wars 2

I’m going to be totally honest here, the warrior on any other build but shoutbow is fully useless atm….can’t roll any build that is not full meta and get entirely obliterated….imo the community has hated on the warrior way to much and way to long….all other classes excell at everything the warrior has or should…warrior lacks evades, passive condi removal (cleansing ire is funny yet unreliable except on meta LB) the grandmaster trait brawler’s recovery is also a complete joke when fully condi spiked….it should remove 2 conditions on swap and when suffering from blind and or chill….those should be the prio ones to be removed from others…why? So we can set up a burst for a change on melee builds and not be forced to GO all out meta shoutbow…wich is a boring slowpaced build with a role that should be a monk’s role, not a warrior. Nerf/change the warhorn cleansing for all I care….but make the warrior a top dps/burst class again in pvp…all I see on forums is people say buff condi buff condi…when condi spec is already brokenly OP and hands down the easiest spec to play….atm the warrior doesnt have the best burst…doesn’t have the best (close to) mobilty, doesn’t have the best heals and is turned into a kiting shouter while blowing the warhorn and drop an occasional firefield… this gameplay is not only extremely boring…but also extremely passive, having the option to roll support is good…but forcing it to be the meta is lame…..it’s a warrior for crying out loud the most ferocious class of all….supposedly, not a kiting cleansing healer….I’m seriously tired of the community trashing the warrior while it’s far from OP …and imo it’s not even a good class anymore…except on shoutbow……I’m just gonna say it (knowing nothing but mocking and hate will come from this) but the zerker amulet warrior…needs a HARDCORE buff

not sure if srs
i constantly see GS/LB, hambow and some condi wars from time to time… i wouldn’t say they doing bad

I constantly see condition ranger and P/D thief and PU mesmer and bunker guard and MM necro and Spirit ranger too

didn’t see p/d in ages; did see quite few PU on NA, none on EU for some reason; faced bunker guardian hour ago; teamed with mm necro yesterday, we won every match; didn#t see spirit ranger since turret engi nerf

i agree to a certain agree, in the sense that you have to use longbow or warhorn in a build for mobility or condi removal. Also the mace and axe dont do nearly enough dmg to have a impact a 1 vs 1 fight. It basically becomes a battle of who times there heals/ burst attack better over a long period of time.

Instant cast skull crack is cancer, but overcharged shot, slick shoes, d/d ele, and Judge + Ward isn’t according to ANET.

I will still say that other Warrior builds can work, it’s just that the incompetent/lack of balancing principles makes it annoying and discouraging to play high skill cap builds such as chain CC frenzy without using something that synergies with it well.

Like some crazy Warrior builds work to an extent. It’s just that you need to play with people who like making crazy team comps to make the most out of them. It’s really the same way to make power necro work tbh.
