Guild Wars 2

hello.
please move the merciless hammer trait from disclipine back to defence or to strength that would help at least.

I think defense has some great lines, don’t think hammer would fit there well anymore. I personally find hammer fine, I run it, especially with my current Reaver build I just posted. My only qualm with it is I wish Earthshaker did not have the jump animation, but just a large aoe smash with little wind up time that had the same effect. Also, a gap closer, if we got something on hammer similar to 3 on Scrapper hammer, id be one happy camper.

No, keep it in discipline. If you move it in strength GM it competes with Berserker’s power. If you move it to defence GM you’ll have to ditch one of the three GM there an d replace them with merciless hammer, and they fit the defence theme much better. Hammer is fine where it stands, just wish they’d fix the dam terrain problems for earthshaker.

I believe toning down stab on elite specs, is the only way to “fix” hammer.

Ok Trump, how would doing that make hammer great again? Why in the world would you want it to be moved to Strength or Defense? The Grandmaster traits in those lines are a million times better than Merciless Hammer, to be honest Merciless Hammer is a kind of a bad trait anyway. If it goes in Strength it’s “competing” with Berserker’s Power which is not even a contest because Berserker’s Power is like I said a million times better. It won’t even be able to fit in Defense.

Unless you’re talking about putting it in a different tiers in those lines. Maybe replacing Restorative Strength in Strength or Armored attack in Defense, but then it would be competing with Defy Pain and I would never choose it over Defy Pain. Unless we get major buffs (or other classes get toned down) where we won’t need the extra Endure Pain, which I doubt.

MH shouldn’t be a GM trait imo

Would it be op if merciless hammer removes stability off a target if you use a cc?

I actually like that idea and would make it a viable weapon choice.

I kinda like that idea of the trait removing an extra stack (or two) of stability when you cc someone. Should it apply to all crowd control skills like shield bash, Bloody Roar, Headbutt, and ect?

I was thinking more of just hammer to completely remove stability, to give up one cc so u can utilize the other CCs.

And I was thinking an entire stability buff not just a stack of two since most people can have a million stacks of stability.

This way the hammer would at least have a good utility use also to be a weapon swap, not just a main weapon

That might be a little to powerful and probably cause a lot of complaining. :/
