Guild Wars 2

Is for Relentless Pursuit to also affect Slow. We’re already slow, this will help us go at our own rate. Please please please /beg. I will not complain about anything else. :P

I’m confident that will definitely be included. Remember for a lot of the Elite Specialization showcases they are using OLD tool-tips.

and it says “Reduces duration of movement-impairing conditions”, slow fits in that category vocabulary wise. So no worries

Possibly, but Slow isn’t technically movement in their sense of the word. But I hope it extends to it in this case because it makes perfect thematic sense. You are slow, naturally, but very hard to slow FURTHER. I really think slow deserves a part of that pie.

That only think I want: nerf warrior. Please, it’s been years

Agreed, slow is just as dangerous, if not more so.

Slow should be just reduced on Necromancer anyway…

During the first few months of the game we did really really well against Warriors, would be great to bring that back.

Haha, maybe considering how sluggish we are. But there’s really no class Baseline attributes like that in this game. At least it makes sense here, and frankly, with Chronomancer coming I feel like it is very necessary for us to have a little resistance to Slow or they will step all over us.

Slow is not a movement impairing condition. Being slowed will not “slow you down” in the sense you’re talking about.

Think about it like the opposite of quickness. Does quickness make you move faster? No. Similarly, slow does not make you move slower. It will only slow your casting animations down, but it won’t have any direct effect on your ability to chase people (other than having a snare or something you’re trying to fast come out slower).

As a War main who’s been hanging around Necro forums recently I have a few things to say:

1: EVERYTHING was good vs the Warrior at launch if you knew what the dodge key was.

2: Warrior has gotten many nerfs AND will be getting another nerf to Heal Sig. The reason we ended up at Shoutbow was because of how much weaker everything else became. Builds like Hambow and Axebow are still decent builds but very much counterable (which I’m totally fine with btw). The upcoming Cele nerf is also going to hit Shoutbow as well, how hard we’ll have to wait and see but if it’s significant than who knows if Wars will even be viable until the next big update. Teefs are better roamers, Guards/Engis can be better bunkers, other classes can stack might just fine.

3: I’m new to Necro but the new Foot in the Grave seems decent for countering Warrior CC.

I’m all for Necros having a fair shot vs Warriors, but being able to just walk all over them like launch? No thanks.

Not sure if you are replying to me or someone else, but I aknowledged that. It does however slow your pursuit in assault while the Reaper is not only slow in mobility, but attacks as well, it makes sense~ maybe even more sense to reduce slow so we can also attack at our own, already slow, rate.

Slow is the second name of the Reaper GS. 1 hit every 2 second with autoattack while under this condition… This will be hilarious.

I’m not convinced “Hilarious” is the term I’d use. :p

2.5 second Consumes will help us clear that pesky slow, though!
