Guild Wars 2

What if there was a grand master trait that lower Pistol skills cost by 1 would that break the class ?

I think it depends on the tree it’s in. If D/P thieves found it conveniently placed they could abuse it for even more permastealth and black powder spamming; having an even more endless initiative pool.

1. There’s no such thing as permastealth.
2. No Thief has an endless initiative pool, least of all D/P Thieves.

Seriously.

d/p is easy to punish you just head shot(or any daze / stun skill) them when they go for the heart seeker and 9 meter is gone trying to cloak.

It won’t change anything other than let you spam more than usual.

If you can Daze or Stun Thief to prevent HS then you can apply that to everything in this game. I am not defending or attacking HS here I am just saying your example is weak.

It would actually be a fairly balanced and good trait if it was for example in the acrobatics tree or critical strikes tree.

It would be very equal in power to the 2 extra initiative per 10 seconds trait. I don’t want another trait like this. Solve the pistol issues at the core, don’t make crap cheaper to use. Cheap poo is still poo. (talking to you auto attack pistol and pistol#2)
