Guild Wars 2

Hey remember that kittenty trait called giggle “Powerful” synergy no one ever uses because it’s kitten? You don’t? I don’t blame you one bit!

Powerful synergy now it says:
- You can cast your leaps for 5 seconds for free before it goes on a cooldown
- Every mace/hammer skill usage reduces cooldown of your leaps by 5 seconds
- Every mace/hammer burst usage reduces cooldown of your leaps 10 seconds

Too much text to read for one trait? Well just spread them to “Sundering Mace” and “Merciless Hammer” or make a new runset for this! Problem solved!

sigh

Ok I’m done :<

How would “You can cast your BURST skills for 5 seconds for free before it goes on a cooldown” get triggered? Chance, guaranteed on X?

Combine Merciless and Sundering together as a disc Grandmaster and reduce the extra damage to 5-10% while making it with mace as well. Also removing the Vuln or reduce the stacks depending on how much dmg%.

Completely scrap Power Synergy and just make a trait with “You can cast your BURST Skills for 5-7 seconds for free without cooldown.” and move it from tactics because the line is balls in anything but pve. With some drawbacks like reduced damage on greatsword, axe, hammer, and rifle bursts. Limited to 1 fire field at a time during this effect with bows, and something for sword idk.

Drop the other two suggestion completely.

It wouldn’t because that’s not what I said. I was talking about LEAPS.

- When you press the leap skill you activate a trait that gives you 5 seconds window to cast if for free. Once the 5 seconds window is gone the leap skill goes on its regular cooldown.

- Using mace/hammer skills shortens cooldown of the leap by 5 seconds and mace/hammer bursts by 10 seconds.

It’s silly idea really, I just needed to get it out of my system. In GW2 terms it’d be a CC god of death and completely insanely OP. I just wanted to spark some convo about actual synergies, how they work and how they can make game more fun.

Diablo 3 is that away —-———>

Literally just a copypasta of a diablo 3 legendary affix…

Gasp! What gave me away? Is it the title?

Yes of course it D3’s leapquake barb and it’s massive fun to play! How cool it would be to have something as fun in gw2!

D3 is a powercreeped hot mess and a kitten game unworthy of the Diablo franchise name.

And that does necessarily needs to happen to GW2 why? It’s a false equivalency. Btw we already have traits that are word for word D3 copypasta (ex. Maniacal Persistence) so I wouldn’t treat this as something completely outlandish.
