Guild Wars 2

With the talk of ‘boon-hate’ and abilities and Warrior on the last SotG, do you think the Warrior may see something new referencing the GW1 Magehunter’s Skills?

Hopefully not a “Go 30 down Tactics and grab the 1% more damage per boon to your target” build or we’re talkin’ less-than-useless ideas.

Other than like, doing more damage per boon or just negating the protection bonus, I don’t see how they can thematically work in magehunter type abilities without it being clunky or OP. Boon stripping makes little sense for a warrior, and so does something like converting boons into conditions. Maybe knockdowns, but that would have to be on something like an adrenaline skill, and we all know how useful arcing slice is. So we’d have to weapon swap to do it. Admittedly, combustive shot + 5 people falling on their butts would be pretty funny.
