Guild Wars 2

I’ve seen this complaint a lot.

I keep wondering why people don’t start running Sigils of Generosity or Sigil of purity to counter it.

You can build around the current meta, but no one seems to ever want to. Instead everyone calls for nerfs and it just makes the game a little worse for everyone every time.

Because making a whole new build JUST to counter ONE rune set is reasonable, is that what you’re saying? What other rune set in the game requires this?

Oh, none of them do.

It’s so fun to run with them as a thief with pistol off-hand, don’t nerf them please. We need more runes like these.

When a majority of a playerbase style is running them (roamers), whose fault is it for being too stubborn to change?

So, I should get a completely new set to only somewhat counter an extremely Over powered rune set and then lose out on any other bonuses from my previous runes if I just so happen to fight someone else not running said OP runes?

Your logic is disgusting, instead of lowering a set of runes to be on par with the others – you suggest the problem is stubborn players. That alone is stubborn. I run these runes on my engineer, and no one counters it. 20 stacks and it takes 3-4 hits for them to down themselves. That is extremely OP.
