Guild Wars 2

These are for the game developers.

1.) Why do you believe that more possible build combinations is a good thing to strive for when new build combinations suffer from all the same basic problems the current build combinations do?

2.) With your excellent new approach to discussing “profession balancing” you clarify that you want constructive, concise, specific comments that are objective, respectful, and mindful of scope and content. How are we to provide those comments when you give us

" We feel like rangers also currently have too much endurance regeneration through traits."

without any explanation regarding why, under which circumstances, in PvE, WvW, PvP, and with the expectation that a change like this wont have much more significance in one area of the game than another?

I’m not asking any of this in some attempt to be disrespectful. I love the game. I simply don’t see the logic here. Please explain. Thank you.

1.) Because they don’t care about rangers

2.) Because they don’t care about rangers

If we’re good in just 1 thing it’s going to get nerfed while the rest of the options stay underpowered. They are only acting like “well, they complain about not enough damage, lets give them 10% more damage for 1 skill”.

Best example: Storm Spirit active: Taken because of the damage even with a condition build. They say it’s unbalanced/op to get this damage without aiming for power. What would be the best solution? Right – Lower the base damage and let it scale with power. What does ANet do? Right – Reduce the damage. gg wp.

Warrior OP. Time to nerf Ranger again.

Tumult:

I don’t think their quote was ranger specific. They used the same language for any number of classes endurance skills. The bottomline is they want more active v passive regen. They don’t want as many dodges which is a good thing for PvP and WvW. Remember, the other guy can’t just evade your attacks now any easier.

Ranger has an enormous number of picked (v passive) traits that can get your vigor back to what you had. Other classes, not so much. . . . That actually helps rangers.

so it is ok to nerf ranger’s dodges, while thief and warriors evasion are ok?

Even with all the dodges we have, we are still prone to be killed, buT not them?

So who’s the bigger threat,

one who rolls yet still can die?

or

One who evades and is hard to kill?

What balance team comes out with this?

Seriously,

we need out true love Arena.net from guild wars back;

-the one who gave us unconditional love even when we sometimes felt lonely and could do better.

-the one who made us feel our lives were meaningful as rangers.

-the one who made us feel we had a purpose in guild wars.

-the one who yearned to put a smile to our face, to our heart and to remind us, we are special…..precious.

As the saying goes, “If You Love Something, You Have To Protect It”

In other word, If You Love Something, Hold On To It Tight.

and we felt it.

-we do not want to be controlled anymore
- we do not want to be manipulated anymore
-we do not want to be forced to change into something which we hold dearly, anymore
-we do not want to be treated as an outcast anymore.
-we do not want to be a scapegoat for the elitists, superior classes, anymore.
-we do not want to be lied to as being special, anymore.
-we do not want to be betrayed, anymore.

Please! return to us once more….

-we have nowhere to turn to
-we have no one to run to

Please save us……….

Hurry…………..

Honestly, I just wish they would bring in a monk class so the ranger can be a ranger not a passive/boring directionless support class.

You want us to be unique, take bow off a warrior.
