Guild Wars 2

I don’t play my Guardian alot, I actually have 8 characters. However when I went to play y guardian today I notice the tome of wrath is gone??

Why is it gone? I wish they would bring it back, I really like using it.

It’s been changed to Feel My Wrath when the trait system changed. It was so that skills fit better under their “type” brackets and so that traits can be more easily associated with them.

I main guardian and I’m so grateful for this change. All of the other elites were pretty “meh” beforehand, only Renewed Focus was ok. With the short CD, Feel My Wrath is super useful, especially in group content.

I like the new elites, but I question why they weren’t just added in in addition to the old ones.

It was so satisfying to equip the tome of wrath and cover the field in a swathe of flames.

Because redundancy, why should be the elites added on top of skills that would do the same?
Tomes also had their problems, meanning a good way to fix several issues is to change to something that can be taked into a fight and have a good effect.

Does not mean Anet will not use the old tomes and change/ tweak them in future releases….they are capable of that (crazy stuff).

They weren’t doing the same thing though. I can’t bombard a battlefield with holy fire with “Feel my wrath”, I could with “Tome of Wrath”, it also gave some limited ranged capabilities to a class that’s somewhat lacking in that regard. I actually downed a fair number of people with it.

The two are about as different as mirror image and decoy are for mesmers.

It was a very welcomed change

I believe that they said that they do plan on bringing tomes back eventually although I may be remembering what they said wrong. I suspect when they do bring them back it’ll be through an elite specialization which could mean a whole utility skill set of tomes!

Maybe Anet intends in future to brin back holy damage.

well for tome of wrath yes, the change is a complete new skill, as for holy fire being holy, that is not what we had, just some diferent color for guardian fire, it would be nice if it was a diferent condi form fire, it could be tweaked independently from common fire.

Except that the only two damage types GW2 has is Power/Condi.

Honestly, I never ever saw anyone using the tomes. They were especially useless in my opinion and unreliable, their super high recharge times not even making them worth it. The elites that replaced them are actually worth using now.
