Guild Wars 2

why remove water from temple of the silent storm?

why? ????????

WHY ????????

to replace it with something better?

Because it’s a good change?
They said they’ll allow you to not take fall damage too which sounds good

nuuuuuu i like the water in there.

Because you can run into the water where it’s safe, use your skills, and then run back up ready to fight again if you start to die. It’s pretty cheap.

I’m not saying I’m not guilty of this, it’s just a borderline overpowered way to prevent someone from capping tranq.

what are you talking about? if you are being chased, they will chase you into the water.

Well if you’re on a ranger you can just pop on off into the water and kitten with people indefinitely.

Wherin you can’t be finished, can’t be hit from above if you hide under the bridge, get a refresh on weapon skills/different utils, can still interrupt with a ranged attack, and if you’re a ranger can’t be killed.

Wonder if water gonna be removed from Capricorn too.

Speaking as a ranger, water is definitely not balanced in PvP….I have no problem with it being removed.

Underwater combat is woefully imbalanced. It has no place in a competitive scene when it’s that broken.

If it was balanced, I believe placing Tranquility underwater would be rather fun!

good idea

da kitten …

they rather remove water than balance ranger under water.

what madness is this?

Anet has made it painfully clear water combat was never going to be balanced for TPvP – Capricorn was either Never in the tourney map rotation, or removed very early (i can’t remember which specifically), but the message is clear – a map with water ijn it does not make for a fair TPvP experience. I’m glad to hear they’re changing it.

It’s also painfully clear ground combat isn’t balanced for TPvP either so there is that.

If that’s your position then perhaps you might agree that it would take some load off the PvP balance teams shoulders to only have to balance ground combat, rather than both ground and water combat.
