Guild Wars 2

from the wvw roaming viewpoint I run great sword focus almost always now which is quite effective but only because they are together! the BIG BIG issue is that we can’t land auto’s from greatsword hammer and mace on moving targets even with traveler runes our dps is unstable due to landing attacks and keeping targets still long enough to burst is the best time a guardian can never ever have

sword feels nice to me auto attacks are good dps and proc our burning quite often ability to hit moving targets it has more range then a GS (seems perfectly logical lol) leap 2 is great you can blind teleport and drop agro in v XX also much needed gapcloser combo leap would make this perfect! zeal 3 is just good its one of our best damage dealers and aoe projectile block very very stable damage tracks decently too

focus( never leave home without ) 4 is okay but it’s only useful when your virtually next to someone or about to get CC’d needs a rework its slow moving nature is not good also it should cleanse a condition on you as you fire it and the ability to target allies focus 5 skill is amazing defensively and offensively great for stomping and protecting your allies that stack on you but once you burn it your probably not going to be see it the rest of the fight!

Greatsword well its an epic all rounder whether your 1v1 opening a small to medium fight or escaping good mobility a blind and a symbol plus best pull in game. symbol whirling combo will save you from a condi bomb my only complaint is whirling wrath is unstable dps (PLOX STAND STILL I HAVE A PRESENT FOR YOU!)

shield I haven’t spent much time shield except point hold tpvp so I wont comment

Mace is interesting but lacks CC I did like it on a dps symbol healing buildin tpvp havent used it enough small man roaming so wont comment

hammer auto noone will play with me#no frands# while I belt auto’s into them would def like to see a .5second cripple on start of chain or not slow me down while using it smash2 is nice with short cd and blast! solid solid solid! (X Y axis issue already brought up PLOX FIX) a very nice burst aoe especially chained to smite. 3 skill its easy to read and its slow and clunky i avoid using unless point blank 4 skill launch is just fun but wvw is always v XX I would like to see1 launch+ Aoe that stuns or interrupts within range ward5 skill great control but cast is slow useless on moving without judge it can however be faked out with weapon stow for 1v1 ! and one of the best choke holders in game tbh havent opted hammer for actual fights since 0 5 30 30 5 days(long ago) except when i chain 5 warding to judge for catching runners for my squad hammer just sits in my inventory.

scepter is great auto has good dps and range and tracks reasonable well and 3 2 synergy is awesome the number 2 skill solid regardless of the situation but when your fight is XX targets lol your going to wishing for any any any other weapon to be equipped before you get absolutely wrecked and loaded with condi

I know people bring up the cooldown reductions but because of the the current viable traitline specs and that you need both weapons in conjunction to be effective in battle your going to have to drop something vital out of your traitlines if you want the reduction. Oh except 2 hand mastery is good.

lol sorry for wall of text guys =p

Sigil stats on 2handed weapons was a good call, the changes to crit well I will wait to see what actually happens but I will say as a wvw roamer I already feel like im punished for taking dps over condition( 3 stats to be effective instead of 1 plus X X ). I really really hope anet can handle this better than many previous patch updates and so called ‘balance’ changes!(destroying a meta does NOT fix your core class problems) I can only speak for myself but ascended really was the monster that you created and the time gold & laurel investment was beyond frustrating that’s before you include time spent min maxing testing build/gear .. i dont even.. You guys always nerf whats good instead of improving whats bad then have the audacity to call it build diversity! if you read any of the sub class forums players have some amazing feedback and ways to get around issues yet you always just do your own thing! I have had enough and frankly to be honest so has everyone else! Ill wait till update to decide but im done with this game.

Oh and one lat thing mob/boss toughness instead of high health pool and problem solved you dont have to rework your dungeons and condition specs are now just as effective, berserker wont melt everything they facetank thus creating the need for sustain and healers in team comp and most importantly you have made 0 impact to areas that shouldn’t be affected

[Myth] [Set] & [Main] Thankyou all for your generous lootbag donations ! you will see us roamers tomorrow for more of your coveted bags PS if you see a wicked [aits] FC ele with a crazy condi spec, he holds the bag that holds the precusor<3.. or so the legend goes. Happy hunting invaders

Duels at Kain windmill for any and all interested.
