oops I made a mistake. Still doesn’t change the fact it’s another lazy stat increase.
Post some vids after the patch please
The problem is hybrid, we didn’t lose our ability to deal damage. It just takes more to get the same effect we have before, and we lose things like Forceful Greatsword which lowers our overall mobility greatly.
We did lose a lot of damage. If you can’t see that then please reread the patch notes. We lost mobility as well, so we lost the ability to deal our damage better.
Please look at the big picture.
You can still deal tons of damage without those traits. Hell, I’ve dropped 9k eviserates and I don’t use berserker’s power or heightened focus. If anything you’re not seeing the big picture in that by moving those 2 traits to grandmaster slots just by going the full 30 into either one (or both) will award you +300 power, and/or +30% critical damage & +3% to burst skill damage that will stack on top of any additional damage percentages you have already. These are still all unofficial notes, so while speculation is all fine and dandy, jumping to supposed concrete conclusions based on what-if’s and maybe’s is pointless.
I think it’s pretty safe to say now the gw2hub changes are probably what we are going to see. Or they’ve pretty much ruined any credibility they had.
No he’s right you’re not seeing the big picture by having those in adept slots we had more build/gear diversity this pigeon holes us even more with no compensation for the damage loss.
I’m not trolling and you making this thread is a testament to the terrible state this game’s pvp is in. Do you want sympathy your not gonna get it. Do you struggle on your Mesmer are you the .00000000000000001% of the population that has a hard time using the mesmer class?
So the damage is slightly reduced on one of the most easy mode brain dead classes in the game. Sounds like a step in the right direction that didn’t go far enough.
Maybe they will add more mechanics to mesmers that let the AI play for you more.
lol so they are moving BP and HF to grandmaster slots? And only improving them by 3% at max adrenaline and no secondary effects?
How phucking lazy are the Devs that work on warriors wow
How can you tell who’s a good player when this game is centered around Mesmer Thief Guardian trash gameplay?
When was rank indicative of anything ohhh right never
Mesmer perspective I find that hilarious
great now we have leo wetawd g here
don’t forget the 10 guardians you need to nut hug as well
Has anyone here actually done any sort of pvp with mainhand axe outside of using it as a secondary set for the evis gib holy crap it is a terrible weapon.
No defensive options and super slow mo combat isn’t that slow that you can use such a crap weapon. It’s not even going to improve itself in the cookie cutter gs/axe/sh builds.
But then again we are basing opinions off of notes created by a disgruntled pve player with too much time on his/her hands.
wow only thing worse is the 3 classes he/she has in his sig
This is a troll post nice one OP
maybe there’s different classifications of mobility then?
How about thieves and mesmers don’t get Torment and the game seems a lil less worse since 2 of the most played and trollish proffs in the game don’t get another free ride.
Also you’re all over the place with what you’re saying I guess I’ll go look at what you’re first question was.
I had to go look up what FTFY meant lol.
You should probably make your own thread at this point.
Do you mean your mad cause that’s alot of words lol. Give me a minute to sift through this pile
Do you play any of the classes in this game? You don’t see anything blatantly wrong in the notes nothing stands out to you?
ya……so those patch notes that came out a couple weeks ago that everyone with a brain already dismissed they are still unconfirmed
I love how ppl use unconfirmed patch notes to derail threads away from topics that actually deal in the facts and have official anet responses
You’re right you’ve been with more girls than me.
I’m a virgin.
Things said over the internet are always true.
Be my guest run to the mods.
Really? I heard they make an exception for gay porn.
I don’t believe you. You should post a picture of yourself.
When thieves and mesmers get Torment GW2 will have truly surpassed Warhammer Online in terms of crap.
no one runs melandru runes anymore since dogged march gave us slightly more runes choices.
It’s so stupid properly specced means running greatsword/sword/warhorn with probably shake if off and shrug it off and soldier runes and then also running bull’s charge. If you think that’s great mobility then you have never played a thief or mesmer they don’t have to sacrifice that much to get great mobility and battlefield presence.
But thank you for derailing a thread which should be about how 2 of the most played and powerful proffs in the game are getting another free mechanic when other classes have been in the trash heap for the past 8 months.
It is truly sad that mesmers and thieves are getting something new for the fake reason of build diversity when there are classes in this game that literally have no strong builds atm and no presence in spvp.
Ohh and btw are you guys gingers? Because I can’t fathom a person bringing up warriors as a scapegoat or used in the fashion you’re talking about unless you’re a ginger.
lol It’s really difficult to actually make use of distracting strikes. Would rather have a guaranteed chance to apply some confusion on say daze type short duration skills like kick and rifle butt along with the mace daze and shield daze
so Mesmer’s and Thieves won’t be getting Torment in WvW?
I’d support an ele buff way before supportin thieves and mesmers getting this gift dropped in their laps.
Guild Wars 2 is an even bigger joke if Torment is given to Thieves and Mesmers.
Those patch notes are fake. Whoever made it didn’t even use the right skill names.
Dolyak signet will still go unused it doesn’t even have a place in a 5 signet build.
Healing signet going down to 15 seconds is meaningless since the active is piddly and offers nothing really. Might do better with vamp rune active but lol who cares.
Mending and adrenaline surge still heal for way too little.
Riposte is nice but why no love to mace mainhand #2
Whirling axe is still garbage whirl finishers are a joke and 4 stacks of vulnerability is pathetic.
These are all none changes that don’t address the overall gimpyness of the class
Fake
1second of stability on stomp is a lil wierd
Riposte changed but not the same love to mace #2?
Balanced Stance doesn’t say how much swiftness given.
Final Thrust moved but no mention of the replacement to it.
Those are the biggest mistakes I found at first glance that screams fake. I’m sure there are more nice try whoever made it though.
Do we need to spell it out in crayon for you people. These classes are already well represented have utterly dominating builds for spvp and wvw and giving them more free mechanics is a slap in the face to the rest of the community when there are larger and more pressing issues to be tackled.
I think this is a horrible idea to give it to mesmers and thieves I cannot fathom the thought process behind this.
Let’s give necros something unique but lets give it to 2 of the most dominating and trollish proffs in the game as well. Way to drop the ball and cave in to the cancer that is killing this game.
ESPORTS AHOY I’m a sky pirate
Yup until we actually see it it’s more than likely going to be tied to a tactic and from the wording they used it sounds like it could even be a f2 ability that just removes the conditions but doesn’t let you use the regular burst skill. Hope I’m wrong
There are so many thieves in this game does that dictate every balance patch the thief community must get something free and new even when not needed?
Is this going to be a trend every patch thieves get a new mechanic?
lol GS is already mandatory in so many builds right now. Improving it so it’s used for more than a movement tool wouldn’t make the other weapons useless because they don’t offer the movement it does. They are already useless because they don’t offer equal strength in other areas that are equivalent or greater to the defensive mobility GS offers.
see that is the mindset that got them boon steal on larcenous strike. He/She is probably a dev.
Probably go with the engineer it has a way higher reward when played well than the warrior.
Every class is top tier in pve the people that complain about pve class balance will suck on any class they play no matter what. That really shouldn’t be factored into your decision.
assume this is for wvw since you mentioned it in your post. And since you said you have a carrion thief much like the thief the warrior has skills that ppl hardly use like the locking in place skills you just don’t use them usually. But unlike the thief being low risk high reward warriors are high risk low reward
Also both range weapons are Direct Damage weapons there is nothing hybrid about them when they under perform so poorly in the condition department.
ugh more tooltip quoting. It’s a very bad skill to stack bleeds with I ran a high crit build wtih the arms minor and bleed on crit sigil and you barely hit that 5 stack of bleed unless your sitting there plinking away forever. The aoe blind is a pathetic melee range radius.
Who the f cares about the ranger longbow what does that have to do about making warrior’s longbow less doody.
There is no reason not to have a bleed, burn or some kind of 3 shot chain with even poison for the auto attack as of right now the AA is a very under performing AA.
