Guild Wars 2

I have seen/heard youtubers and Forum comments about an upcoming large scale change to reaper. Is this actually happening, have we had any Dev confirm this?
I really hope it does come with the Xpac, Scourge looks cool, but thematically Reaper i just amazing, I just wish it was Useful or desirable for end content.

There has been no confirmation, it’s just speculation at this point. I for one would love if they did and really give it a good hard shove and buff into power… but honestly I don’t think it’s going to happen

A developer mentioned not that long ago that they would like to essentially remove the support for condition damage from Reaper, basically nerfing or (hopefully) changing Deathly Chill. They want Reaper to be a power-based spec.

Of course, you can play Reaper as power right now, but the damage is middling at best. Here’s to hoping they make a change that improves the power damage and utility if they remove the condition-based build.

Really hoping this is more than just rumors. Giving us our 3 secs back would be a great start.

Well I currently play condi reaper using a staff so it would be nice if they’d wait to nerf deathly chill until after I unlocked the new spec.
