Guild Wars 2

Well I am not sure if there were hammer changes but i recall once upon a time i was reading the guardian forums and saw a Anet forum goer saying that hammer love was on the way…

So Am i wrong and its already happened

or Is hammer love(changes) On the way?

I thought the Hammer love came in the form of changes to skill #2 which gave it a small leap. That small change made the skill incredibly hard to dodge in PvP and more reliable in PvE.

I think the hammer is in a good place right now. AH Hammer gameplay is one of the main guardian builds that are popular to play with at the moment. The damage offset compared to the GS is justified by the amount of survivability it gives.

As Polle said, the Hammer #2 got a small leap, and we also got a trait that can give Chill on a Hammer crit, occasionally.

I have to say though, that trait is actually pretty useless compared with what you can take instead.

Ee-yup.

Don’t forget that the hammers 3rd attack in the default attack chain allows for movement. Before you had to stand still.

That was never true actually. Maybe in BWE1. You could move while casting ever since then.
