Guild Wars 2

Just a question but is Automated Response balanced or is it OP?

Condition duration is reduced by 100% when health is below 25%.

This trait does not remove conditions once your health falls below 25%, and existing conditions will continue to cause damage.
However, new conditions will not be applied once your health is below 25%

Oh, again this thread.
As a medium hp/medium armor class, 25% is quite low and make bursting you down with power based-opponent quite easy. You basically have to play as a bunker to use it, and even then you would have like 6500 hp before that trait activates. Basically a heavily specialized build that will beat heavily specialized condition builds and will be beaten relatively easy by power opponents.

Definitely not OP. The thing with Automated Response is that it is usually too late. By the time you hit 25% HP against a condition spamming spec, you’re already on fire and have 10 stacks of bleeding.

It is not OP. Use team tactics. I’ve been using the 27K health/automated response build in tpvp because of the proliferation of necromancer rerollers. Yes—it punishes them and yes they deserve it. I was playing in a match the other night and a necro rolled up and couldn’t kill me. When he came back he brought a thief with him. I died in seconds. Then they just sent the thief only and I wasn’t equipped to deal with him.

Short answer: It’s not OP. It’s only OP against YOU. (you being most necromancers)

TL;DR moving along, nothing to see here

Yeah since the patch i rarely have ran into any hybrid necros only condition spammers and leg twitching boon corrupters…sickens me how they can take all your hard earned boons and turn them into moot “FOR FUN” ….most of them have no clue what they doing but it looks cool to turn orange into red..i may start running it on my 29k engie now…cause necros are on my bad side lol

Not OP, I seen more engineers use HGH than AR.
