Guild Wars 2

I am elementalist.

in spvp :

warrior comes. stuns me+frenzzy+Hundred Blades (18k damage to me ) = i am dead.

in pve

i am trying to kill boss with best items.(80 lvl exotic) i cant deal damage as newbie warrior.also my defance is less than warrior.

so nerf warriors or buff elementalists.

funny, we had quite some people claiming that with the new game concept melee was impossible in pvp (which I considered wrong)

As elementalist, I always have mist form utility skill ready. So, if I’m unable to dodge his chain of skills, mist form is there. You can easily avoid any massive damage and prepare for your counter attack, or even run away…

^ This. Always have 2 defensive skills (Anti CC). And then counter attack. You wont always win, thats for sure

I think you’re confused, no one ever said melee was impossible in pvp, that is just silly.

People need to realise the difference between Spvp and WVW. Spvp warriors are very powerful. WVW they can never go melee and are severely kittened.

Well there’s the problem right there…you’re wearing cloth.
Cloth = dead.

Dunno if you were expecting cloth to be the best armor or not.

Seriously ? I lose from warriors and feel powerless so Nerf them and make me strong so i will win then i will be happy!! Muahahaha! Pf…

I can’t tell if this guy is trolling us.

In my opinion, melee combat is far more difficult than ranged. Warrios are not “very powerful”. I get to die like a worm when 4 mobs drop on me. However, my elementalist friend, just kites them.

“I want 1,000,000 precision, toughness, power,condition damage and vitality! I also need Heavy armor AND I need to use all weapon types! I also need more utility skills and traits so I can compete. I’m a caster btw…Thanks”

^this…

Melee combat feels much more difficult to me as wall. I love the way the game looks, but when a target disappears beneath a sea of spell graphics only to emerge 82.37129% of the way through some powerful skill’s animation it’s a little late for dodging if you’re melee.

Much easier when I’m using the rifle or bow because I can watch for a projectile instead of watching the character model. It’s the same scenario whether the target is in pvp or pve. If I can’t see it, then there’s a good chance I’m going to miss a critical animation queue.

Melee doesn’t seem to offer anything substantial to offset this either, so if there’s a lot of action in the area I usually replace my melee weapons with ranged just for the sake of survival.

(Note: I don’t feel this is specifically a warrior thing either, all classes have melee and ranged builds)

Warriors actually need buffed. In WvW you pretty much cant melee if there is a group fight and warrior is outclassed by ele in ranged skills. Sounds like you should not be trolling the warrior forum and go look for ways to beat warriors on the ele forum.

Hey guys, I suck and don’t want to adapt and learn my class. Can we just nerf the warrior instead?

Every day I’m Hundred Blades~

Hundred Blades
Hundred Blades

This is all this forum section will be sadly.

The difference in mitigation between cloth and heavy armor in GW2 is only about 14% btw. The main difference in survivability comes from the the default health pool size, and often I see squishier classes not put points into vitality.

i use axe axe/axe(pve), axe/mace(pvp) or hammer which imo, are all better than greatsword

I’m an 80 warrior and I’m not sure if you realize this or not but a hundred blades breaks if the warrior moves. He has to stand still, just get out of the way or interupt it.

are you kidding me ?

i am pro elementalist. since 1st beta i am playing elementalist on spvp. i can beat all warriors. i know some skills to break stuns or hundred blade.

but, is it logical to hit 18 k with one skill ?

Rangers can crit 20k+ with 1 ability. Should we nerf them as well? Or should we just buff everyone’s health so 20k isn’t that crazy?

I wonder if it’s not a Warrior buff but maybe a bit of an armor buff. Sometimes I feel paper thin in my armor… although that could be due to the 30 ppl hitting me

Imo, pretty much every class BUT warrior needs some work. Warrior feels like the most rounded/smoothest/most fluid/most powerful/most resilient of all the professions to me.

The others need some serious work.

Agreed with the above, warriors are in really great shape overall, I am pretty happy with the huge number of different builds and utilities I can play with. The numbers on the skills the devs can tweak as needed, I don’t get too concerned about those — I am just happy to have a huge variety of playstyles to pick from.

My elementalist friend is not as happy, and I can see why, as the traits and build variety there are just not as interesting IMO.

Have faith it’ll even out in the end. The difference is if the Thief missed a Heartseeker, no big deal, plenty more incoming from the spam.

Have fun

Try playing necro – basically 1 decent spec, that’s it. Elementalist is a generalist (direct and massive AoE ranged DPS, condition DPS, heals/boons, and mobility) regardless of trait selection. Your “friend” should find something more to his/her playstyle – its the fun of trying to find what is your combat flavor afterall.

Troll thread. Nothing to see here.

Move along.
