Guild Wars 2

I see a lot of talk recently about improving Warrior class mechanics. Some people have suggested additional F# skills for using adrenaline, some have suggested making Fast Hands a built-in ability.

But what if we got a 3rd weapon set we could swap in combat? Engies and Elementalists already have a similar mechanic with kits and attunement. Everyone else gets the same 2 weapon set options. Why not give Warriors an extra set, since they are supposed to be the weapon specialists in the game.

NO, this will make things just very bad for warriors, too much a hassle switching 3 weapon sets.

And that solves anything of the warrior problems.

Three weapon sets would be too OP.

Three weapon sets would be too OP.

I dont think it would be Op because they for sure would tone the damage output of warriors a lot, but instead its going to make a chore to play warrior, like pressing your change weapon button 2 times or even 3 if you need an specific weapon set, Maybe the OP thinks more like the attunement of the elementalist, but that would require to rework the UI of the warriors and mechanics, this also isnt a solution to anything.

It wouldn’t be OP, but it would be very inconsistent and hard to play and increase the skill-cap of the warrior so far ahead of the other classes, while not making it that strong.

We would need 30 more trait points to compensate for all our spread around traits as well.

Honestly, it would be too hard to implement and we way too spammy. (I hate spam, but honestly with 3 weapon sets.. I really would be doing nothing but spamming, because why not?)

Sure, lowering the damage would drop the bursting to a reasonable level but that wouldn’t be a reasonable solution because now we have the sustained dps of a ranger bear pet.

Three weapon sets would just lead to mace/hammer cc’ing or pindown/arcing arrow swapping to 100b, swapping to shieldbash->eviscerate (or back to your CC weapon if they’re going to escape from shieldbash→eviscerate).

And doing 4 times the work.. while trying to do everything else.

It would just be too much spam.

It would be too much.

While I have dreamed of a third set so I can keep my sword/warhorn handy, overall it would be a bit much and make warrior a bit too good

soo, longbow, axe/mace, sword/warhorn?

Would be very nice, but i doubt Anet will do it.

Disagree with people wo say it would be OP.
