Guild Wars 2

Just a theorycrafting question towards the community, should Anet decide to give us some attention.

I’ve been wondering if it would be OP to have all of our DS buffs (Might/Fury/Stability) put into our trait lines as 10 point minors? All of them. Might stacks in the Spite, Fury in Curses (where it is but as the 10 point not the 20 point), and Stability in Soul Reaping.

I’m honestly not sure what we could have in Blood/Death Magic as regeneration/protection respectively seems way too OP to have up constantly but it gives me the feeling that these lines need something in them. What would you guys like to see done with DS?

I personally really love it, also, if #2 was ground targeted again. I feel it would improve every builds mobility by a large amount (I dare say almost solve them given it’s low CD) which would allow more attention to be given to our utility skills.

What are your thoughts?

I actually think they should go historical and make them instead stat buffs/effects in DS. So that people that dont want to use DS as a tertiary weapon set but just as their burst sink/tanky form and improving near to death for shroud hoppers.

Well Lich Form already gives buffs to stats so I don’t think they would do that. The only downfall to Lich is stability being corruptable (which I find funny).

If DS is going to be our class mechanic it needs to be flexible enough to use as an invul (more base life pool AND/OR easier to gain for condition builds) or it needs to have more effect on us while we use it. Even as it is, the few buffs we do have last no time at all really. You have to DS Stomp people just to be able to use our only steady source of Stability. This alone makes me shake my head when I see guardians/rangers with 20s+ of stability (guardians can really keep it going).

I don’t think it’s asking for a lot considering how long our utility CD’s and such are.
