Guild Wars 2

I don’t want the Warrior’s longbow! I want the smaller, sleeker model. Instead of the 1337 sn1por skillz, we’d get dodge rolls! I don’t know, maybe its just me, but the shortbow’s idealistic agility seems to fit the Guardian more than the brute firepower that comes along with the longbow. The longbow skills for both Ranger and Warrior seem to be more about nuking and pure damage, while the Shortbow for Thief and Rangerboth have inherent evasiveness.

The pure damage aspect of the longbow for either Warrior or Ranger doesn’t really mesh with the Guardian thing. Even the Greatsword gives retaliation, and when traited it can heal you. The shortbow, on the other hand, as seen with the Thief and the Ranger, still has a bit of punch to it, but also has an extra bit of tankiness and utility, something that I think would fit Guardians more.

The guardian has access to neither. So what’s the point?

I don’t think it’s a discussion worth having until something along the lines actually gets announced. And that probably won’t be soon. It’s more likely to see the Scepter changed than us getting a new weapon.

And: “Rifles!”

Good point. But to add, an evasive skirmisher weapon doesn’t really suit the heavily protected defensive juggernaught that Guardian portrays.

I would take warriors rock throw ability as long as it had 1200 range. Anything, please, besides this scepter.

I’d like to see the staffs 2 changed.

Long ranged teather onto an enemy that lasts for a couple seconds.
If you cross the beam over an enemy they take damage, cross it over an ally they get healed.

The ball of light that used to slowly travel, now flows down the teather and when it reaches the end it explodes.

If the enemy can LOS or move out of range the teather is broken and the ball disappears.
