because gratitude is a burden and revenge a pleasure.”
Wow… Thanks Anet for giving us the proper icons and projectile finishers. Glad we finally got our top issues fixed. Warrior is now in league with the rest…
lmao This is the 5 page patch notes we were waiting for?
I don’t wanna live a thousand years. If I just live through today, that’ll be enough.
We know for a fact Anet is using war as a template for balance. I would agree that we are pretty balanced, idk if these changes will bring the OP classes/builds down to our lvl. Veng is even more useless with the decrease HP in downed but overall I like the idea. Idk if the 10% bow auto increase makes it more viable in PvP or not.
Just an angry old man…

That’s the problem. They use warrior as a starting template. However, they left it behind as they built on the rest. The only class we outshine is ranger, which isn’t saying much.

Fast hands only is broken on the very first swap after you turn it on our load a map. After that it works. Fixing that first time bug is extraordinarily difficult, but we think it is worth it to keep the trait.
@BurrTheKing I doubt it’ld make bow viable in PvP. Without some buff to autoattack projectile speed it’ll keep missing moving targets.
Honestly, I barely used auto attack. I would go 5, Burst, 3, 4, roll in, 2, then switch. It’s not bad for forcing the enemy trying to take a point to fight on burning ground.

Which one of you is paying off anet devs? patch after patch of nerfs to other, weaker classes (even engies now) and warriors always walk away unscathed. I want to know what the going rate for a complete class is.
Warriors, if you are underwhelmed in your patches….go and entertain yourself by the utter despondence, wailing and gnashing of teeth taking place in the Ranger forums.
I’ll have to trait it again, but that wasn’t the way it worked at the start of the month. I rarely got the in combat reduction (1 in 5 maybe), and always got a 10 second out of combat CD. Had nothing to do with whether it was the first swap or not.

That still warrants a fix imo, is it still being looked into? It doesn’t sound like it from your post, it sounds like it’s broken and too hard to fix so we’ll leave it.

Hey, thanks for dropping by.
I’m pretty sure I see it more often than once per game… And there’s still a matter of random 5sec cooldown applying even when swapping weapons out of combat (usually after respawn). I agree though, trait is still worth it.
Any word about Vengeance bugs?

warriors are complaining? did you not see the other professions. you warriors got the best of it.
I don’t even want to look at the Ranger forums.. I’d probably cry for them, this was indeed very disappointing, my main being an Ele I could punch a kitten over some of the changes they made in this patch.

Actually, the first swap is the most important one in pvp.

Warriors buffed AGAIN? Rangers and eles (two of the professions most in need of attention) are getting consecutively nerfed and screwed over, and warriors are getting buffs?
If ANet wants to know why people are quitting it’s things like this.
Alberel I would hardly call them buffs, they aren’t game breaking any way. I would agree though, that a few classes got shafted in this patch, they where promised fixes and to be brought up to speed with other classes and instead received nerfs. Very disappointing.
T’was a mockery. With all of our glitchy traits, completely underwhelming combat, basement level skill ceiling for most weapons, and we get combo finishers and proper icons. Oooooh, Aaaaaah. What a joke. When there’s blatently broken stuff to fix, please focus on that. I’ll take a fixed trait over slightly inaccurate and very irrelevant (for anyone that’s used the skill/trait a few times) descriptions and icons.

hey woah woah no john you are very mistaken it doesn’t just happen when you set it or zone in. I just tested to make sure and I have even seen it happen twice in a row in the past. Please please don’t remove it I wouldn’t be able to play comfortably with a 10 second cooldown but for the love of god and all that is holy my anu.. i mean fix it.
edit: alright forget the past I just happened twice in a row again.
Should we head on down to the thief forum and gloat?
Seriously though, I’m glad LB got a little love.
This industry just needs to move on. We’ve seen a bunch of “WoW 2.0” attempts, and
who actually wants that? Do we really want to be playing those same game mechanics for
another 5 or 10 years? -Mike O’Brien
Give us protection, replace our tier 2 worthy grandmaster traits(or upgrade them), and fix 2/3 of our utilities. I will stop being annoyed when at least 2 of these are done.
I don’t wanna live a thousand years. If I just live through today, that’ll be enough.
I’m glad we didn’t get nerfed at all, but can we please get a fix for fast hands.
I’ve been running that trait forever, and it not working on the first swap and sometimes causing a 5 second delay outside of combat is so annoying, I’m sad it still hasn’t been fixed. That’s really my only issue right now
I just posted on reddit my feelings..gonna share here:
IN no way i mean to complain or be happy, i simply feel forgotten because all the patches that don’t involve warriors and even a patch this big has..nothing. AT LEAST NERF SOMETHING SO I CAN RAGE i dont know.. warriors are no way in a great state (not talking about powerful or weak, more like we have our own bugs and stuff.)
Just thought i should share, i was hoping for a longer necro/ranger part btw!
Triple Chop: This skill’s responsiveness has been improved.
Above change was actually made on 10/22 patch which was not documented, and it is causing more problem than it solves as seen in this, this, or this thread. It’s also been listed in the stickied warrior bug thread since the bug first appeared on 10/22 patch.

Sir, you have just proven to me that you do not actually play this game. I logged in, changed my traits to get Fast Hands. Went into combat. With 20 in combat swaps I got the full 10 second CD on 19 of them. With 20 out of combat swaps I got a 5 second CD on 18 of them.
I’d already sworn off PvE due to the manifest being burned and being given the finger by ANet because the WoW players bring in more money. I was waiting around to see if my Warrior at least would finally be worth playing in PvP, so I could at least wait out the storm in there.
No major changes to the core problems of PvP itself, and an even bigger middle finger to Warrior players who have been yearning for a rebalance to worthless secondary skills since the betas. I think I’m beyond being disappointed in ANet, and to the point that I’m just curious as to how delusional and disrespectful they can really be. Really? Improved dual shot damage by 10%? The skill that never even hits targets to begin with? The worst PvP weapon, and that’s it? Seriously, it’s just funny now how inept these people are.

Wait wait wait wait… are you complaining about warriors? Amazing.
