Just nerf these atrocities already, I’m tired of “constructive” discussions, these 2 specs are just kittened…this cheesy aoe daze/condi spam will kill your game

Already quitted PvP as I had enough of reaper/chrono condi and unkillable scrappers, I didn’t quit gw2 because of wvw , great game mode…but you kittening ruined, this mindless cc/aoe spam, nothing but dragon hunters spamming traps all over the kittening place alongside unblockable marks …..what a shame..really what a shame, I would seriously take this game and give to another design company…if only

In order for marks to be unblockable, you have to be traited for it. It was ALWAYS that way. JEEZ .

I think that DH tramps need to be red circles also. _ I also think they should make them so you cant overlap them. That would prevent the load of DH traps being used.

OR JUST BRING BACK THE OLD STABILITY – the traps would be more situational then.

Red circle? Lol, that’s why it’s called a trap.

What I’m seeing in the offending elite specs is a preponderance of CC, defensive skills and damage.

DH in particular is silly as it has massive melee damage in the form of traps, great ranged damage, a ranged nullifier that lasts very long and a wall of reflect, then an array of blocks, immunities, knockbacks, pulls, etc. They just cover all of their bases too well.

Contrast that with old warriors that could knock you around quite a bit but did less burst damage and were vulnerable to being kited from range.

Reapers, on the other hand, reprise the necromancer’s role of being monsters at close range but being vulnerable to kiting…except with their increased ability to chill and newfound mobility, it can be a bit overbearing. Still, I would be remiss to nerf power reapers too harshly. The true problem is the condi reaper as they can do all of their damage from range but still benefit from the enhanced survivability. Problems inherent to condi aside, there’s no way to fight them—every choice is wrong.

Scrappers are harder to pin down because I don’t see them as often. They seem to have permanent swiftness/super-speed, great CC/damage and utility to boot. I think they’re too strong but I don’t really know what to change about them.

I’ll agree with some of this but DH is far from being the I win button that the thief enjoyed for so long. Reapers wreck me everytime. Crono has been a coin toss of will they get me or will I get them.

Red circle? Lol, that’s why it’s called a trap.

Indeed, but some people just want to smash keys and win…

DH is one of the easiest classes to defeat, people that die easilly to DH traps are people that outplay themselves o.O!

Show me video of u killing DH with warrior then. If u say that it is easy to counter em then u should be able to do that with every class. Also They aren’t easy to ciunter, yes u can doge away from their traps, but then u get 10k crit from their good kitten op shoot… Also the poroblem is that they have high survi and over huge burst dmg. Anet must nerf 1 of those aspects( either survi or burst dmg).

As for Reapers… I mentioned it hundred times already that they are unbalanced kitten and u know what? Anet don’t give a kitten about that… All they care is that ppl buy expansion to play this P2W class… That is all

I dont play warrior on WvW, got mine arround lvl 40 from almost 3 years ago , saddly i would like to have it at max, but atm i cant even log into the game (unninstaled it for install BDO) :\, btw DH is one trick pony and most are squishy players that after the trap spam dont know how to act, as a DH without bow, myself i didnt had problems with DH ji/GS/traps, usually they need to have arround 3 or 2 vs 1 to get that win or a dual with necro or engie and than get busrted 2 or 3 times by the DH, well i could say same goes for matches against warriors i think i never lost on 1 vs 1, even before the power creep i could stale match with some D/D or hold them for quite some time, imo DH is pretty much dependant how this power creep gameplay to counter high sustain builds work, if that gets removed DH traps get killed, ive seen axe wharhorn sturdy warriors with a very good lasting surviability, i think that build could be a good match against a trapper DH.

Btw this game is ment to be played unbalanced it is ment to be a easy game for some reason it is a tab or click target to hit it, if a little aim was required would be fine the issue is that this game is not for mmo players overall
Nevertheless, what ic is that Anet to cover the lack of skills on weapons, choosed to unbalance the game, to force players moving from Class X to class Y, and from build A to B, also some players love unbalanced games.
This will end in some weapons stopping being effective and otehr being to much efective to “force” a player to move to that overboosted if tehy want to keep competitive.
I played a sturdy DH with very blocky build using Mace/shield.

Well with DH it would be easy to pwn DH, but it is imposible to do that with core class. Just look at sPvP… only scrappers, repaers, dh, chrono, dd, tamer, rev and druids… Not a single old class and when u play old one u get yelled and bullkittented by teammembers. Same at WvW, but here u don’t get bullkittented for playing code class as 3/4 of current WvW players are WvW veterans that didn’t even buy HoT

Reaper still manages to actually maintain its core weakness as a class though despite some really silly decisions with the elite specialisation.

However, Dragonhunter is all over the place which is indicative of its poor design. I wouldn’t even know where to begin to make it acceptable in the context of WvW, which is likely why balance decisions are mostly influenced by sPvP.
