Guild Wars 2

I think one of the biggest problems in pvp (wvw) is that warriors often can’t really stick to enemies (which goes against the whole design philosophy of being a warrior/melee) the only real weapon that has in your face skills is the GS with charge and whirlwind. Combined with the fact that if a warrior can’t really stick to a target, the target can always kite until their endurance is back up, and dodge possible cc moves like the Hammer R etc.

Yes there is bull’s charge but that has a heck of a long cd

so true i feel so stiff lol, the whole warrior game play is very slow we need free dodge and jumping skills and longer blocking and grabs, we need a new weapon the long lance main move impaler lol sweet, 10k crit lol.

we need a bear hug and head butt for thief encounters.

I got a slight solution for you that i currently run. Use sword/Shield + GS and make sure you get fast hands and use signet of stamina + Bull rush. 5 gap closer (Whirlwind/Rush/Shield bash/Savage Leap/Bull rush). If you get mobility trait in discipline, you cant’ get stopped by immobilize. Its how i run my dueling build. More dodge rolls + swiftness from signet of rage, 5 dashes and still have great chasing abilities on low cooldown. Key is to abuse weapon switch as often as possible to maximize the gap closers.

Otherwise i agree we don’t have many skills that stick you out enemy target.

Actually that’s very cruel and lets you dance around your opponent when he runs on full speed unless he’s a thief desperately shadowstepping with shortbow or air ele with daggers.
That aside, sword+shield is my main offset(mainset is GS) for wvw. Not only mobility, but damage combination of flurry>HB is awesome.

Haha yes, its perhaps my favorite way to play warrior now. Most dynamic and quick maneuvering abilites and i actually utilize dodge offensively for the extra dmg proc constantly as i notice the dps on it is actually quite good. Over all, its the most fun ive had with warrior in a while.
