There’s no point in running a warrior anymore. Just roll a guardian. They do everything better. There’s basically no reason to run a warrior in WvW other than for running away with GS.

Guardians have massive damage, aegis, blocks, blinds galore, in-vulnerabilities, protection, regen, crazy sustain, better team support, etc.

Just do what I did and roll a guardian to save yourself a headache. You’ll win 99% of every duel if you use a DPS scepter/focus+GS meditation build and it’s SO EASY TO PLAY.

Sadly, guardians will never be nerfed.

The funny part is that this is exactly why I started warrior. I always play the under dog. I just love playing a class that isn’t overused and hated. It’s a challenge and it’s fun. I main Ele still, but eles are annoying as freaking crap. That’s why I don’t do meta on my ele.

Anyways, a bit more on topic, I don’t think warriors are all that bad. They do just fine if you know how to play them right. Sure, other classes have more cheese but one thing amazing about warriors is that they can get the heck out when they need to. Mobility, baby!

Also here’s a random quote, “You either live long enough to see yourself become the OP class, or die UP.”

Looks like you died UP. Well, sort of…adios bruh.

This is that new sound. Ya’ll ain’t ready.

went to WvW for a bit guess how many warriors I saw… none… what a joke.

Wow. Our servers must be really different. Granted, there are now a lot of meditation guardians, which is the new build for bad players (along with power ranger), a place that was occupied not so long ago by warrior builds. But there are still a lot of them running around. In comparison, engineers are supposed to be broken, but you hardly ever see them in WvW. Warriors still has a lot to offer in that game mode: best off combat mobility in the game on a weapon that just got buffed (GS), insane damage, incredible passive regen, huge health pool, etc.

In addition, their role in a zerg can hardly be filled by guardians, whose CC capabilities are nowhere close to them. Come on, I know we’re not as god mode as we used to be, but the profession is still in a very good place. And on the positive side, when I see a warrior on my team in spvp these days, I’m less worried of him being a total noob than I was a while ago.

Warrior is no trash. Its simply, weaker than before, thats for sure. The adrenalin nerf was the last nail on the coffin for the warrior, after all the weapon damage nerfs prior to that. On my server there are few warriors on WvW, but only for the banner res. So yeah, tough luck on yours.

Ironic how if you go to the guardian forum they say the exact same thing about Warriors. For wvw everyone there says roll a warrior. I think you over exagerate a little with your description of how good Guards are (i main a guard btw. )

I almost exclusively do WvW and i see PLENTY of warriors out there. Guards are super good in WvW if you use the classic AH support build, but that is useless for roaming. if you go Medi build then you are barely much use to your group in a zerg/havoc setting. They would much rather you spec support than be medi.

For Medi you are almost forced to use Travellers runes which means you cannot use any of the other cool rune sets out there.

Warriors were ridiculously OP before the adrenaline nerf but i still see them in my teams and they still do a ton of damage.

Ridiculously OP …. against baddies. Even before the adrenaline nerfs you were seeing alot of non-warrior comps. Alot of people opting for ele/engi/thief as the backbone of their team. And some teams even running double engi, double ele. Then the last spot either being filled out with Mesmer, Necro, Warrior or Guardian.

I was referring to WvW. I always see a warrior in every team ive been in and still do. Guard, War and Necro in every party.

So they are OP because you always see a Warrior in every team? By that definition then Guardians, Warriors, Necros and Eles are OP because they form 80%-90% of a guild’s composition who is serious about zergbusting and GvGs.

Or maybe because, Warriors are actually the most popular class? At around 16%? Even when they were underpowered? Rangers are the 2nd most popular class, yet nobody really considers them apart of the GvG meta. So seeing a certain class in a "team" many times is a poor indicator of a class being overpowered, in a lot more different ways than a popularity contest.

Sigh if you read what i actually wrote it was that warriors were ridiculously OP “BEFORE” the adrenaline nerf. I didnt say they still were but they are also not absent in WvW they are very very common in WvW and do very well in there.

I dont hear anyone saying “oh no not an underpowered Warrior, we dont want him in our team.”

Anything that isn’t a Long Bow build on Warrior is trash too which is another sad part about it.

ANET clearly has no idea how to balance, but at least it’s not as bad as when Jonathan Sharp was around. Next level incompetence.

I would not call it trash, warriors now need more effort while the old "lack of effort to kill " is now in other classes, what i see here is that players require more effort to kill now outside the bow, while other classes got easier to play.

Anet way of balance if that even exist, is to transfer metas between classes, they dont balance gameplay becouse it is not their moto, they prefer to swift the meta, so some classes ended being used more than others.
As result its the same of an unbalanced game (but with effort to be unbalanced) since there’s no roles or minor roles due DPS being the only role it is easily noticed when classes mechanics start to fall apart and become to underwhelming or the opposite, this will always happen while defense isnt as valuated as damage.

Yes, let me be trash again please. It’s sooo much easier to kill people when they think I’m trash.

On the topic though. Yes, other classes can outperform us on stuff, so what. Warrior is a good balanced all arounder. A lot of warrior builds can get away with 1on1 situations as well as group fights, and you don’t really need to adjust much to be viable on both situations.

A lot of the other classes people keep pointing out usually go max out to something. They are good in some situation and then they are terrible in other. (Not the case on every build, but most). On the other hand warrior can do good in some situations and still maintain a threatful position in others as well, thats what makes the warrior so pleasant for me to play around.

I can’t wrap my head around people claiming warriors were ‘ridiculously OP’ before the adrenaline nerf. Massive L2P issue here.

Just because warriors are easier to pick up, does not make them strong. In fact, it’s what makes them weak.

I only state my opinion unless stated otherwise.

If you read I even say BEFORE adrenaline nerfs. They weren’t ridiculously OP before adrenaline nerfs, they certainly as hell aren’t after. Much of what I said applies now as it did before. GWEN was the meta back then and still is, Warriors were the most popular class then and still is.

Not underpowered doesn’t mean ridiculously overpowered either, I’m not arguing that warriors are underpowered. I’m arguing they aren’t overpowered, not now nor before pre-adrenaline nerfs.
