No. If they’re going to introduce new weapon skills, I’d rather have them added to existing weapons and have the option to choose the five I want.

The symbol is nice though.

I’m not sure Anet will be caving in to any more player weapon requests any time soon.

They’ve already said the 5000 range sniper rifle they’re including in the early April patch for guardians will be the last weapon buff we’ll be getting for quite some time.

You never know though.

They’ve already said the 3000 range sniper rifle they’re including in the early April patch for guardians will be the last weapon buff we’ll be getting for quite some time.

Or just make scepter #1 homing… ill be fine with that too, just got meteorlogicus on my guardian and more and more i feel like i’ve made a grave mistake…

only if it is dual weild flails. Guardians as of yet cannot dual weild so that would be nice.

I think mention before but I really hope they make spear a land weapon too. It will be really cool… I wanna change my guard into a spearman with rush skill like warrior banner charge..

yes but i would prefer an dual mace.

i rather take flail skins as mace weapon because really there are very few good looking options.its sad that the glyphic mace is actually one of the best looking mace ingame and you can have it at lvl 1.

No thanks. I’d rather have two-handed axes. But MOST of all, I’d like details of the AoE nerf, so I can finalise which legendary I want to go for.

Nobody at Anet loves WvW like Grouch loved PvP. That’s what we need, a WvW Grouch, but taller.

i rather have another sword than a flail, mace is almost useless we dont need another blunt:)

A spear on land would be acceptable (i imagine that on a further expansion when we will find the mess our gw1 character did to elona :P )

I think the mace is better than you think it is, even (especially?) as a DPS weapon. While it’s not my weapon of choice, when I do slot it I’m often surprised by how underrated it is.

IMO, its not that great outside pve, a clever player will never get near the guardian to kill it, and all classes have ranged weapons some have native better mobility.

I can agree with the kite-ability point, I definitely would want to have a control weapon as an alternate.

Combined with a focus you can pump out 20k of damage in a couple of seconds with a pure dps build – so it’s effective as a fast strike weapon, but might suffer in a prolonged encounter ( as most damage builds do ). Heals are also welcome when you have sacrificed so much survivability.

No thank you on the flail. I’d much rather have an off hand sword.

This

5 weapon skills out of a possible 10 would give a lot more variety

IMO, its not that great outside pve, a clever player will never get near the guardian to kill it, and all classes have ranged weapons some have native better mobility. This is why I second slot the scepter so that I can make the opponent stop kiting and get into close range while they are not able to move. Scepter #3 is great for this makes them stop in their tracks.
