Guild Wars 2

It could fit the cele meta. Its not sure ofc. But i still remember ppl complaining that gs is power weapon so it shouldnt be a bleed dmg skill there.
But the meta shifted and now we all wish we could have another solid weapon choice. Sure its a nice weapon for high power builds but imo its dmg doesnt worth the risk.

More like if it had 5 bleeds and burning.

/only slight sarcasm intended.

If Devs want Celestial to benefit the class, they should do something about shortbow, not GS.

Shortbow is clearly a pure condi weapon. I aggree it should do bit more dmg, but it is no problem. Axe MH is already high hybrid weapon. High condi spike on skill 2 (if hit from close) + AA does about 1k dmg on cele + might. Pretty decent even in 1v1. Combine this with torch for more condi or dagger for moderate condi but more survive/control.

Back to topic GS is spike power weapon with utility, sword is high sustained dps with evades. Its fine like this.

I sincerely think that Rangers have more than enough of Hybrid weapons. Greatsword doesn’t have to be one of them.

Moreover, Vulnerability stacks are way more valuable in PvE from my point of view.
