I would like 3 stances.
1 offensive stance
1 support healing stance
1 defensive tanking stance with Taunt skills like Staff Revenant
It’s interesting the whole weapon stance thing, effectively giving the guardian 3 weapons?
I would like 3 stances.
1 offensive stance
1 support healing stance
1 defensive tanking stance with Taunt skills like Staff Revenant
While that does fit thematically with virtues, I don’t really think a tanking stance would fit even a little bit on the longbow (range and tanking don’t really go together). I’m assuming the idea behind the longbow and those two stances is that it allows guardians to deal damage, heal allies, and generally support from a long-range via a weapon. No other weapon really allows this on guardians, and currently there’s no real pure ranged support weapon in the game (the closest thing is the water attunement on the ele’s staff). The scepter only kind of~ let’s you deal damage at range, and the staff only kind of~ let’s you support at range.
The changes I wanted to see are something like letting the healing arrows have AoE or bounce rather than just the piercing that only fits the offensive stance’s arrows.

Personally I like the idea behind sub classes ~ quoted from Chris Whiteside

Keep in mind that if we get stances like this they will apply to more than just Bow.bow is simple one way to play defense in defense stance. Could apply control and taunts. Thats pretty defensive on its own.
