Guild Wars 2

DEDEN.2870:

I’m not sure I particularly like this change — and I especially don’t like the random re-jiggering of the skills to different hotkeys.

As far as Symbol Of Wrath goes… Isn’t the self-root when you use it a big enough limitation already? It makes it fairly difficult to land the initial attack successfully — and any halfway decent player is going to be out of the area of effect before it ticks more than once or twice.

Even if you’re using it in conjunction with some kind of cripple or immobilize (or with the pull of the greatsword #5), it’s not doing huge amounts of damage that aren’t avoidable. Either way, it’s not something you can chase anyone with — which makes it rather lackluster in sPvP and WvW.

If the problem is the non-stop retaliation it provides, how’s about removing that from the skill entirely? Keep the same recharge and burn effects and so on and allow players to combo for retaliation if they want to?

Either way, can we get the keys back to where they were. Futzing with stats is one thing, but there are a lot of players who’ve been playing for over a month know who are going to have to retrain their muscle memory — just because.

i agree totaly man. couldnt say better myself. all i asked was that they didnt screw with the layout.

weather its by order of skill cooldown, or combo fields, i dont care, they made a big mistake changing that and im extremly kitten im sure you all saw the reaction of rage by every guardian as well. if they want to change skills, buff tem, nerf them, ok let them. but DONT mess around with the freakin skill layout. everyone already has the muscle memory set so doing this just pisses players off. if its not broke, dont fix it. guardians were just fine how they were. but w/e. my guardian is going to take a pretty bad slam on dps thanks to this. whirling wrath and symbol of wrath together use to be epic. and i loved the combo field it had of curing conditions on everyone around me. well thats gone too now. thanks Anet. I hope you listen to the disappointment of your community and change it back
