Guild Wars 2

Hi I was wondering how much of a DPS loss it is to just stay in Glint?

One of the reasons I love this game is its laid back feel. A lot of that has gone away with the expansion, but it’s still more laid back then the other MMOs I play. Anyway I’ve been playing the Herald, and I really like it, but I don’t like micro managing Legend swaps. Glint seem to be the most fun to just stay in, but I feel like I’m not doing near as much Damage as I am with my Warrior. Is it all in my head, or am I really losing out on too much damage for it to be worth it?

FYI I’m in full Zerker, with Sword Shield.

I don’t have numbers, but I guess you’d lose a lot. Switching legends is the only way you restore energy, meaning less weapon skill use if you don’t do it.

I haven’t had an issue with energy. In Herald I really only have to use it for Sword 2, and three. I only use the Shield skills for OH kitten moments, or if I need a bit more healing. If energy is the only issue I don’t see how it could be a big DPS drop. Then again I may not be seeing everything. But thanks for taking the time to give me an answer!

Can’t give you specific numbers, but without utilising quickness, it’s a very big DPS loss. If you have access to quickness and don’t use it, you’re missing out on multiple extra attacks.

Edit: I just wanted to add that, unless you’re playing a ventari revenant, you’re going to be swapping legends practically on cooldown. It’s a major part of your DPS rotation, and you need to do it to perform your dps, which, unfortunately for us revenant’s, isn’t that great in the first place.

Umm if u are playing solo rev open world etc and u are not switching between shiro/glint for quickness u deserve #headbutt irl.
