Guild Wars 2

Hi,

i think currently the cooldowns for virtues are just way to high at all. Therefor i suggest to change it. I’d change base cooldowns like:

-F1 25 ->20
-F2 50 ->40
-F3 75 ->60

The other possibility would that the virtues line has way more influence on the cooldowns. I’d atleast double the effect to 30% so we would get:

- F1 25 × 0,7 = 17,5 sec
- F2 50 × 0,7 = 35 sec
- F3 75 × 0,7 = 52,5sec

What do you think?

I think most professions have pretty good F skills that become even better when you trait for them. I think Guardian has pretty much useless F skills that become good only if you trait into them.

It just doesn’t feel right to me.

We are in a good spot, don’t you forget that

Yeah EFWinters, you got a point there.

Guardians virtues are very underwhelming with theses high cds even if they are traited

Sadly it is not:

Virtue of courage:

untraited: 75sec cd for AoE Aegis in 600 range
traited: 65sec cd for AoE Aegis, protection and self retalitation
traited with grand master: 65sec cd for AoE Aegis, protection, stability and self retalitation, stunbreak

So in best case you get a one time block, 3 low duration stacks of stability, useless retaliation and some protection on 65 seconds cd

If you dont trait it is totally useless, which applies to all virtues. So basically you are forced to take a specialisation to get any use out of your class mechanic. No other class needs to do this.

And yes, it is meant for all 3 gamemodes

Reducing the cd is just the first step, imo they need to get reworked overall

Yes i agree with a cooldown reduction.
