Guild Wars 2

We give up utility slot for it.. I mean sure we can slot something besides runes of the traveler, but I really wanted to be greedy and get it via a skill trait..

Not sure if I will lose my medi/trap utilities just to swap out my rune set..

What’s the new 25% movement speed, has something been announced?

It’s becoming a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Guess we have 25% movement speed guys, we can all stop complaining now.

All we had to do was say we had it and there we go. Now we can spend time discussing things that actually matter.

Yes you give up a utility slot for it, and gain free rune set choice, or get rid of the kitten shouts entirely. And it is like this if they give a utility-speed buf, not a trait related one.

Be careful about the “if” part.

The reason why everyone is talking about speed buff and not other issues is that we gave up on Anet fixing or reworking many of the important issues. Already 1 year after HoT and no proper fixes. So I just want to move fast with my guardian now.

Where was it said? Is it going to be implemented with this new patch?
And why Anet has to make it an utility related buff instead of going with a trait of 25% movement speed as long as we have an aegis on? That would be so much more reasonable… other profs get the best bits and we will be bound to sacrifice a whole utility slot for 25%? While for example mesmer has it as a minor trait?

Guardian is a walking sacrifice to give up lots of stuff to feel at least a little bit better.

Pretty sure OP mistakenly used future tense instead of conditional tense. If a
ANet even hinted at us getting +25% movement speed, the reddit and everyone in this forum would be all over it.

On topic: I doubt we would ever be given a free +25% movement speed like chronomancers did. It would either be conditionally available through a trait (probably unscathed contender or battle presence if I had to guess) or a utility skill (reworking one of the signet passives). That being said, it would be something you could very easily switch out of when not in combat unlike “Retreat!”

I think guardians could actually use it

If its not a trait I do not want it.

retreat is a very good utility with many uses and synergies. Why would I want something that competes with a probably superior utility that gives more speed?

Man this thread is so misleading

^what mrauls.6519 said.

Lets just wait theres no info, and for sure guardian/dh wont be touched.

Well after reading the notes, I am not thrilled with it being a utility, but then necro, elementalists, rangers (non druids) have to use them also.

I am taking it, for the main reason of being able to swap into a different rune set.

Be nice to pull out runes of wurm or something else to get more dps then travelers.

Oh I am taking the upgraded signet to. Replaces little or never used one, and I can get different runes due to no travlers.

I am happy
