Guild Wars 2

Little damage.
No sustain.
No Evades/Invulnerabilities.

You’re absolutely right! Time for you to main a Guard, right? right? I hear they are short on ideas and the home of OP. A match made in Heaven!

I’m coming back to the Warrior after looking at the changes. lol.

I tried a Guardian, and I may end up leveling one as well. However, the Warrior feels better to me. Maybe it’s ‘cause it was my first profession? Dunno’.

Are you serious? War’s were THE easymode faceroll class. Always have been and its nice to see some other builds being buffed and made more viable from the warrior.

The only change I hated was the Berserker trait changing thing. I feel that they’re forcing us to go all out damage now. Will miss my tanky warrior.

+1, total disaster class for pvp.

Yeah but you know.. some people prefer PvE.

Oh, you mean the PvE that you can run no matter what build/weapon set you use? PvE in this game is an afterthought, it’s a PvP game at heart…………..PvE is the reason we are having to deal with this stupid crap.

Give it time man this is just an experiment. I wish they lowered our heals though because they aren’t that great. As for damage I just tried DW axe and man it hits like a train wreck. Too bad in zerker build you don’t live long enough, but that is understandable.

I like the part where whirling axe only does 50% increased damage in pvp. That little nugget wasn’t in the leaked patch notes if I remember correctly.

9.5 second weakness effecting up to 3 people in front of me on a 12 second cooldown is great buffed sustain for my build.

It’s ok guys let me get home from work and get my hands on it.

I’m sure theres a build somewhere in there.

i like warrior offensive sustain denial capbilties

I love the 20% dmg increase under 50% health. Makes going high health and shout heals still viable. Just have to time em right, and dat sword ‘3’ damage o.O, did 6k crits already and I am a tank. It is just what I needed to finish of guardians and eles.

Shock to find out our heals didn’t get a cd reduction ;(.

Still toying around with some builds, but I wont stop playing my warrior. Just need to see if I should look for another trait in adept power line or discipline line.

This is either a troll post or you have no clue how to play the game. There is no third option.

Totally agree. My build is exactly the same. These changes didn’t give me nothing new.

You guys sit here and drink your own tears while the rest of us go figure out the new metagame. You can come back once all the best Warrior builds are all nice and theorycrafted for you.

I actually liking the patch, however our healings still sucks hard.

I want the old warrior back or is this a joke from Anet? Because all we got was nerfs.
No reason to play warrior in spvp anymore or did I missed something?

The new warrior in SPVP: Guardian

I’d say your 0/0/30/10/30 Hammer and sword build actually got buffed if we do some modification.

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fIAQNAS8ejcOxupQyQMxBE0DNsK4C1j5oOijUBxA-TsAg0CnIMSZkzIjRSjsGNQY9xGBA

25% run speed Warrior’s Sprint and maybe using DotE instead of Mobile Strikes. No more AoE Leg specialist but with hamstring, dogged, and Sprint I think avoiding being kited might be a thing now.

Berserker’s Stance may be my new Sigil of Stamina because it’ll make Backbreaker and Earthshaker easier to land.

I’m pretty sure it got buffed as well. Let me play around with the numbers and get back to you on that. I’m thinking swapping out shield for Warhorn due to Weakness being so strong now.

I wonder if daecollo gets paid to lobby for warriors on the forum or if he is just genuinely the biggest whiner in gw2

The only problem that remains is how overly spammable blind is, Zerker Stance is now good for ensuring spikes land which is nice. The CD is a bit higher than i think it needs to be or duration needs to last longer.

In this game? PVE is so easy that only brain dead people find it challenging.

Swiftness from our Elite in combat> 25% run speed.Swiftness in combat can be up 42 seconds out of 60 seconds if you take signet mastery only or almost all the time if you take Furious speed. So basically, it is not a a big difference from signet mastery since they are both minor traits in the samei tree. Also, you get more fury/might up time with signet of mastery.

Not to mention you have leaps etc so Not sure how 25% movement speed was a helpful improvement.

The only advantage it has is if someone rips boons off of you. A very poor way of addressing how our best elite is easily negated by a boon rip/steal from regular weapon attacks/shatters/utility skills.

These changes were just swapping stuff around and allowing some builds to have access to certain abilities they were not able to but at the same time depriving them of others.

The more I look into the changes the more disappointed I am.

Can’t really find a way to play nerfed warrior over new improved guardian, they got a huge DPS increase.

Signet of endurance is on a 36-45 cool down and removes all conditions with passive endurance regeneration.

Berserker stance is on a SIXTY second cool down , does not remove all conditions -some ppl spec into increased condition duration or in wvw: runes/food- and only grants 2 bars of adrenaline.

I really fail to see how berserker stance is better than signet of endurance..Are you really that starved for 2 adrenaline bars for every minute? Those 2 bars won’t help you much.

I decided to make a build around interrupts and cleric gear, the result:

-Survives decently.
-Can’t kill kitten besides zerker warriors.
-Can hold himself 3 – 4 v 1 for a bit in spvp.
-Not fun to play at all.
- Hitting anything feel like a huge pain specially now than condition necros are simply running around applying conditions.

Over all verdict, we were horrible before and we are horrible now.

This. Definitely looks like there are buffs in there. Just have to re theorycraft the builds.

I’ve participated to 5 matches in structured PvP. Guess what ? I could not find a single warrior in these matches, but me… Now I know the reason why… we were horrible before this patch, and we are still horrible now.

I found at least 3 warriors besides me today, none of us could do kitten so yeah I agree with you!

The only thing that i hate is the healing, sucks so bad, really we need better heals.

You’re forgetting how much blind hurts our ability to combo, Zerker Stance means you won’t be blinded while trying to backbreaker or Earthshaker. The CD needs to be lower but the skill still has a purpose.
