Guild Wars 2

As far as I can tell I don’t have any real issues with FT. People talk about the burn damage being weak or ineffective but I don’t really feel it. Autofire has my torch going full bore almost constantly, and I deal really solid damage with it across the board, pve or pvp. It just takes some playing with it to learn the angles for it.

It’s not an easy thing to learn, not in the least, but it’s not nearly as dismal as people are playing it up as. It has a high learning curve, though, and some abilities like it’s napalm bomb need some setting up (I combo it with air blast and my net turret’s alt fire, and it hits like a truck), but honestly, I’m loving every second of it.

The 1s burn isn’t all there is to it, is my point. It’s not the end all be all for the kit, and at most it’s a visceral detail for me, something that I go “oh, good” when I see it inbetween laughing at my enemies flailing about on fire before they die. I don’t know exactly what I’m missing here from all this talk, but I don’t think it’s as important as it’s being made out to be.
