I dont understand the need for such traits..except the warriors, cuz its awesome in wvw..but my main is guardian and i have never ever equipped the fall trait..its a convenience but far from mandatory..never died falling in mk or in wvw save for one time i panicked trying to escape a zerg :P..and inb4 someone thinks heavy armor reduces fall damage
You were outgeared and /or outplayed
From some of these posts it seem any bad rap for torch is based on misinformation..torch is NOT a condition weapon, its a power weapon..torch throw ive seen hit for 9k, and cleansing flame scales on power with no burning aspect beyond passive virtue of justice
I didnt post to twist anyones arm into a new position n the scepter..if you are happy always having to be in melee range or hiding in the back using shield or staff buffs good for you..meanwhile i will continue enjoying the largest ammount of loot bags ive seen since i started wvw..and btw the range on chains if light is 900 not 1200
You realize you have a root as well as other damage skills right? Im not hitting 1 and going afk..
I like the cast time idea..same rate of fire but higher hit chance
I run scepter/torch glass cannon for siege defence..so many people get within 900m of the walls and when they do, i melt them..scepter auto hits up to 2700 in my build, smite ticks up to 1500, torch throw up to 7k not counting the burn..so afew autos, torch throw, smite, chains of light, more autos..if they live they wont get close again soon..agree that if they increase auto speed they need to nerf another aspect
I guess im one of the few who love scepter as as it is..it is and always has been a MID range weapon which is where it shines..it only has 1200 range because in closed beta people cried and cried that melee wasnt viable in wvw and guardians couldnt get kills in sieges without a longer range weapon..so they tacked on 300m
Whats wrong with sword??
@George Steel, Wall of Reflection IS an amazing skill for guardians. However the OP is doing mainly small group vs zerg skirmishes. Judges Intervention and Stand Your Ground are much more important for that. (to get in and out safely as needed) Great video OP!
Build im using is 10/30/20/5/5 btw
Im an AH guardian for the most part. And while i love that build in pvp and dungeons, solo it is SO boring. So ive been playing with different builds and eventually got around to a full berserker scepter/torch build with afew minor survivability traits. Holy cow can this setup burst. Id highly recommend power/crit/crit damage
Asura..because there nothing more terrifying than a charging gremlin with sharp or blunt object
Camera won’t affect the aim if you have an enemy targeted and in range
Its not meant to be an aimed heal..its a targeted damaging attack with the option of a small aoe heal..if you stay thinking of it and using it as such your headaches will go away
Focused mind isn’t garbage but would be better if all meditations started with cast times..it allows you to use smite condition on top of other skills and chains without interrupting them, the same way virtues and shouts work..this opens clutch condition removal without stopping your current actions or just added burst since it his pretty hard in an offensive build..still the trait is far from must have but its not as bad as most think imo
Not hitting mighty blow on cd is a big dps/burst loss..by adding the dodge time to the auto chain you ate able to use mighty blow every cd which not only ads to damage but also applies max uptime of retaliation, which is even more damage..speaking mainly with pvp in mind the dodge also keys you put the symbol where you need it more frequently since you can dodge in any direction and still walk the cast time..so as i said, exploit or not i would never want to shorten my hammer chain :P
I was unaware of this..as a hammer/AH guardian, I dodge between step two and three of the auto chain to essentially make it LONGER..this way the symbol lines up with mighty bow EVERY Cd..shortening the chain would kind of defeat the purpose for me
