Guild Wars 2

The facts with GS in PvP:
- very slow life force regeneration (sluggish AA speed)
- slow AA makes it unreliable to use because it forces you to be AAing for way longer in the middle of a fight in normal form… (too risky and may result in insta death)
- not fun when you can’t hit any moving players with half a brain due to above reasons

Solution? Increase GS AA speed and reduce its damage. Slow casting speed/High damage of Gravedigger has already define the uniqueness of Reaper’s GS to other profession’s GS, no need apply this concept it for our AA as well.

TLDR: GS as of now is not a viable alternative weapon choice for high level PvP due to the sluggish nature of its AA.

Hello! PvP POV here.

The only issue I seems to had with Reaper is the slow base attack speed in GS#1. As of now, the life force regeneration from GS is almost non-existent in high level PvP due to the simplicity in evading such a slow sluggish animation.

So please either increase the base auto attack speed or the range of GS#1 so that GS can be at least somewhat viable in higher level competitive PvP.
