Guild Wars 2

Hello,
So warriors sprint, am i the only one that find problem having to chose disci just so i can get warrior sprint ?
As little sustain we got , having to chose disci over str/zerk/arms is terrible for me.
Am i the only one who wish that war sprint is actually related to str line ?
How about , kick peek performance forever to be gone , and actually give us something useful like warriors sprint ?

With all problems war have right now , lacking speed is to me worst one.

wvw roaming and general pve at least …

Oh my god yes. Interestingly its not even on a trait line which supports melee weapons. The only reason its still in discipline on my build is because I changed the weapons associated with the line.

I think warrior’s sprint is palced perfectly fine as is IMO. Strength does need better Adept traits, but that’s another story.

Discipline is a utility traitline, Warrior’s Sprint is utility.

I think that the point was that warriors sprint is the warriors only way of gaining speed and still dishing out damage.

You could use Pack Runes with SoR to give yourself pretty much permanent uptime of in-combat Swiftness. Combine that with a food that also gives you bonus condi duration, and it’s a guarantee.

Pack Runes are very good offensively, and swiftness provides a better speed buff than Warrior’s Sprint. Or you could use any of the other +25% movement runes.

@emkelly
Why would you say Discipline doesn’t support melee weapons? Seems to me it supports melee as much as it does ranged, like the rest of our traitlines.

Truth to be told i dont wish to trade complete rune set just to get what other classes have for “free”. Disci line is useless to most roamers who are not into using rifle, and lets be clear some ppl actually still wish to have chance to play gs/ham or gs/sw.sh.
This type of speed buff should be related to berzerker line as minor.
Ofc this would not make war viable for wvw roamers since war is far from viable in anything but “stacking pve” but hell its quite needed.
PS.
And no , boons are really NOT something i wish as “fix” , why give necros even more ways to laugh at us.

Which class doesn’t have to trait or use up a utility to get a speed buff, if they don’t want to use a rune set? There’s always some trade-off, and warriors and chronos are the only ones who get +25% as a minor, afaik.

As for discipline line being useless for roamers, I’ve been almost exclusively roaming as a warrior for the last 2-3 years, and it’s an excellent traitline as far as I’m concerned. I’ve been running gs/sw+sh since about July, and ran h/gs for about a year before that. When running the h/gs, I was using pack runes rather than warrior’s sprint, and maintained permanent in-combat (and virtually out-of-combat) swiftness to good effect.

Warrior’s Sprint is useful for more than just the speed buff as a roamer. Brawler’s Recovery and DotE are excellent for a roamer, especially the former. Any of the grandmasters work well for a roamer, depending on what you want to do and your weapon comp. Plus Fast Hands, which is truly the indispensable trait on the Discipline line for a roamer….

And are you saying your strategy for dealing with roamers is to run with no boons? That would be nuts. Having a large amount of boons we can stack on quickly, combined with our now greatly enhanced access to resistance, is a much better approach to corrupting necros than trying to run a kitten build that avoids boons altogether or just the ones you need. Besides, being chilled or crippled is far more likely than getting swiftness corrupted.

Hmm. Yes if they couldent corupt ressistance. But they Can.

So… you’re thinking they’ll corrupt the resistance (every 3s) AND corrupt the swiftness? Would you care to describe the sequence of events that makes that risky enough to worry about?

Between sprint and Fast Hands, there’s a lot of “need” in Discipline.

As u wish guys. I know it is not main problem but it’s important one. I guess if wars are ok with it who am I to argue.
