Anet balances the game spvp in mind with little to no consideration to wvw/pve.
Better just to accept it and play with the hand you are dealt with or roll a better profession like the rest of us.
Is anyone else in this game frustrated with how they keep giving thieves and mesmers (which were more than powerful enough to begin with) new abilities to make them more powerful?
My main is a lvl 80 ranger with all exotics and a crit build and I don’t stand a chance against thiefs, mesmers or necros with their new torment condition.
My point is, if you are going to buff those classes, than please buff all the rest as well so that the game is still fair in WvW.
Not sure If your serious or joking. Swapping torment for weakness on skale venom was a nerf. Torment does terrible low damage, while the new weakness is very strong. Not to mention it’s on one utility with a 45 second cd. I will however join your petition, plz anet take away crappy torment and give back perma weakness.

It couldn’t possibly be because there are pretty much only 1-2 viable build choices, right? Or the fact that the thief has seen nothing but nerfs since beta leading all the way to April. Naa, it couldn’t have anything to do with that. And from what every ranger in my Guild has told me, you guys have gotten some very nice buffs.

The rangers in your guild are blind and delusional. The latest patch nerfed us more than buff.
To OP: Maybe its time to change your build to more viable one in WvW. Look up the ranger forum on how to utilize the latest changes to your build.

I’m assuming you are either joking or new to WvW. Thieves and mesmers? Seriously? Those classes are good at picking on out of place new players but that’s about it. The current meta for WvW is about zergs. The strongest classes right now for zergs are warrior, guard, necro, and ele.
err… if your having problems with Mesmers, its your own fault, We are easy to fight if you know what to do. If you think that torment bull kitten was a buff, I laugh at you, Its on one of our worst weapons, and on a block, which makes it unreliable. We also got handed a large number of nerf and anet continues to try to shove a build no one wants to use in our face. Come again.

Ah LOL that sounds so familiar. Every patch is nerd d/d and buff staff for eles. Please I don’t want to play staff, it’s boring.
I’ve really noticed no differences in thieves or mesmers from last patch tbh. The only class I’ve noticed a large difference is necro which now obliterates me in 1v1.
Another post complaining about things that don’t need to be complained about. If you die to a thief who “owns” you. Either you aren’t very good, your build is a disaster, you are an up arrow or that thief is an exceptional player (and that same player would probably own most people in any class). The only truly kitten class is the ranger. The engi could use some love but every other class is playing strong in one role or another.
Also thieves just got hit with an SB nerf as well as a few other minor nerfs this last patch and have seen pretty significant nerfs with almost every patch. The Mesmer is in the same camp. They lost confusion a while back, lost an entire build this patch and have seen several nerfs along the way.

“Youre lips are movin and youre complaining about something thats wingeing.”
Imbalances are a feature and intended. Cause it is not a 1 vs. 1 game. Don’t know why always the people complain in the WvW forums… in a sPvP it might hurt with random teams of 5 if there is a bad balance.
WvW over the servers the population should balance somehow so you have like x percent of the "omg OP class " on server A and on server B also x percent of the “omg OP class” and it is balanced. Just don’t go 1 vs. 1 all the time and expect to win it(here we also could complain about the imbalanced equip… my level 1 starter equip is not good enough and I get always killed by someone with ascended gear omg omg OP nerf it).
You can’t play with a terrible build and expect people to take your complaints on class balance seriously.
Fact of the matter is, if you play anything but a Necromancer or Warrior, your opinion on class balance is null and void because every other class is on par with everyone else. They may not be great at everything, but their strengths in one area offset their weaknesses in another.
