Guild Wars 2

Just a thematic way to add a bit of flair and strength to an otherwise simple skill.
“True Shot” sounds a lot like (commence intense british accent) a skill that the villains of Tyria can not hide from. This arrow will pierce their blackened hearts and vanquish these corrupted scourges. This shot… Is relentless as Justice itself. Sorry, what what I talking about?

I like the unblockable idea.

This is sick guys! It pierces and deals hell of a lot dmg. It cannot be unblockable.

Ofc it can if the guardian is rooted while casting. Both terrain and dodging will prevent it from hitting.

And seriously, it doesnt do that much damage imo.

Honestly, if Mirror Blade on Mesmer hits 3 times, adds vulnerability, and is Unblockable, I don’t see why True Shot shouldn’t be unblockable. And this is coming from someone who mainly plays Mesmer (with Guardian on the side).

im against more unblockable kitten. stop wanting to get buffed all the time. we are not in the thief forum here. if the dmg is high enough then this skill is still good. its risk vs reward gameplay. be rooted but deal alot of dmg. its ok this way. we have other problems on dragon hunter (virtues)

^ that.

Considering the skill practically auto aims itself, i’ve had 0 issues with it and don’t think it needs a change.

I’ve witnessed more “line of sight” issues from LB#3 & LB#4 in every DH video… these need addressing.

LB#3 could use a Stun for targets at 240 (or even 180) range for sure.

Making unblockabke is not viable. It has the same damage as a hammer mighty blow , from range, and pierces. Anything beyond that makes it overpowered. The rooting might be debated, but I’m not in favour of making it unblocksble.

it currently crits for 5k by itself in just marauder amulet… it is the guardian’s single hardest hitting ability. if our hardest hitting ability is “not that much damage” you must think the guardian is the worst class in the game.

look, I hate the BWE1 version of the longbow guardian as much as the next person, but true shot was not a reason why. in fact, even though its on a 4 sec cooldown (which is borderline OP for a skill that hits this hard), my biggest gripe with DH has been waiting for true shot to recharge faster because the other longbow skills were useless.
