Guild Wars 2

So, as all of you know our master (second tier) are just abysmal and kinda force you into a pet type, so how much more useful do you guys think they’d be if they didn’t require you to use X Y or Z pets? IE: rending training makes your pet (regardless of type) bleed on crits, intimidation training causes activating your pets F2 cripple all enemies in X range etc (maybe just those effected by the F2 if that’s how it currently works, not sure how it works with spiders, don’t use em)

I tried, it sucks as everyone knows why. Pet? Huh?

What are you talking about -_-’

He’s asking what everyone would think if the traits in BM tree that affect specific species of pets could just affect any species.

Personally I think that’s a rather interesting idea.

I’d rather see them merge all those into a single trait and leave them the same. In other words, if you are using a cat, it causes bleeding crits. If you use a spider, it can immobilize (can’t remember is that is even correct, just an example). However, I agree with the concept, something needs to be done about more than just the Beastmaster traitline.

My problem with that tho is that most of them are just insanely “bleh” the crippled 1 is nice but how does that go with ur pets F2? Spiders and Dogs usually already have have some sort of snare as the F2 already. Not to mention the wolf’s Fear actually becomes less effective if you cripple them. 3s of stability on activation for bears… why? Rolled into one trait would maybe be viable however I’d much rather see them affect whichever species I wanted.

Yeah like the stability ones it’s like “yeah that’s nice, you just made my already hard to kill pet immune to CC… like he’s going to do a whole lot more then he would’ve been able to…” where as if my cat or dog got stability, that’s pretty freaking good!! Especially seeing as how the cat would melt by the time the CC would’ve been over anyway -_-’

However the idea of rolling them all into one would also be nice and i would not argue with that, i just suggested this approach because it’d be easier, give more freedom on how you want your pets specialized while still keeping the choice of what pet you want to use. Only problem with making it so all of them were in one trait is that they’d need to fill in the missing 3 traits or so…
