Is Anet going overboard a bit with all the new hot stuff when it comes to ranged projectiles absording/blocking/reflecting?

I know many have cried about pew pew, but at this rate only gs mes is left to actually damage people from range in HoT ^^

Could you be a little more specific? What exactly are you taking issue with?

I think he’s talking about the new guardian specialization.

I speak for myself, not for my server or my guild.
Solo roamer, all classes.

You might think that. But on my mesmer for example, I’m forced to use the “Reflexion on Distorsion” trait in almost every pvp game I play, because of the sick amount of LB rangers, power necros, rifle engineers (though you don’t see as many of them now that they are forced to play a more skillful build), and LB warriors. Some of the most popular soloq builds are heavily based on projectiles, so a few more defenses against them couldn’t hurt.

edit: since we are on the WvW forum: it’s even worse! You don’t see as many lich necros, but most roamers are:
- LB rangers
- Pistol thieves
- Staff mesmers (ok, reflexion is not that useful against them, but still they shoot projectiles)
- Rifle warriors
