Fix the Obstructed crap and i’ll gladly accept a nerf to my pet damage.

Else, leave it as it is.

Ranger down state is imbalanced

What makes Ranger down state different from the others? The answer: Rangers can use their pet. Their mechanic, pets. Rangers can order pet to attack, use pet abilities, and switch pets.

Warriors cannot use burst skills while downed.
Mesmer cannot shatter skills while downed.
Necromancers cannot go into Death shroud while downed.
Engineers cannot use toolbelt skills while downed.
Thieves cannot use steal or waste initiative while downed.
Guardians cannot use virtues while downed.
Elementalists cannot switch attunements while downed.

Yet, Rangers can use their pet while downed.

Warriors can use burst skills while not downed.
Mesmer can shatter skills while not downed.
Necromancers can go into Death shroud while not downed.
Engineers can use toolbelt skills while not downed.
Thieves can use steal or waste initiative while not downed.
Guardians can use virtues while not downed.
Elementalists can switch attunements while not downed.

Yet, Rangers cannot use their pet while not downed.

Just made a few changes.

While the ranger is not downed you will keep moving to fight him which means the pet will barely land a blow, when the ranger is downed you will stand still trying to stomp which means that the pet will land every blow.

Truth is…ranger has the only mechanic that works while downed and doesnt work while alive.

And that’s why.

Pretty much joking, however there is some truth on it.
