Guild Wars 2

Have we heard anything yet about all of our turret traits being broken since last patch?
Not a thing, completely ignored thusfar.

Placing bets if this gets fixed or not come next patch!

Im thinking…. no.

The turret traits aren’t all that useful anyways. More pressing matter to attend to imo.

30% damage reduction isnt much when they have no armor to begin with and die in one hit due to low HP.

Auto-tooling trait only effective for when turret not getting focused. Even them you are better healing it yourself or picking it up and placing back down. You cant out heal the damage the turret is taking. even if u sat there with toolkit.

*increased turret damage by 10%

*Static Discharge now has a 10 second cooldown.

…i’m running out of builds to switch to.

Well if they would actually fix our turret traits that would be +25% damage total, not bad i guess

I’m not sure why this thread hasnt got the attention it deserves

Fixing the hit-box should be a priority

Fixing the hitbox is pointless if nobody uses turrets because all the traits are nonfunctional.

It’s probably worth submitting support tickets for the broken turret traits if you haven’t yet. Forum posts aren’t official bug reporting mechanisms, so it will be common for bug reports here to be ignored.

Either that, or just post it all over the thief forum. Broken traits have a history of being hotfixed if they’re all over there.

I don’t like turrets either, but it is a matter of principle at this point. They continuously nerf the profession and throw turret buffs at us to mollify us. Even if turrets will suck regardless, they need to make this stuff work.

I doubt Scope was not reported using the bug report mechanisms. They still didn’t know that was actually broken, instead insisting that it just sucked. Seems like they just don’t read these boards, and it even shows in the way they’re moderated.

They read some of the boards, as is evident from looking at -other- class forums, it just feels like the devs simply dont care.

No kidding.

If they nerf SD, I will officially be done with the engineer, and this game.
