Guild Wars 2

there is inherent design flaw in melee vs range in this game

ranged has no disadvantage even when trying to widen the gap because they can CAST while moving. this means melee will always dps only a certain percentage of the time, while ranged will have 100 percent dps uptime.

in WoW, warrior vs mage, if u close the gap on the mage, he has to try to kite you and his dps is lessened greatly while he is moving.

so gw2 desginers need to make up for this descrepency. yet i have the feeling this critical subtle detail will continue to go unoticed and melee-junkies will have a frustrating time enjoying pure melee builds in this game.

and guys i’ve been playing since release as a warrior. just can’t have fun as a melee warrior in this game. never have, and still can’t. i’m putting this game down and checking back hoping they can improve the melee warrior pvp experience.

are you reading this designers? cough

I use a melee only build and I do just fine. Matter of fact here’s a video showing off my build:

I also have other videos showing off melee-centric combat both with my warrior and my ranger on my channel as well.

song of video is amazing, what is it? i know that it’s a cover of cool j but who?

soulbinds remind me of customization in gw1. That was cool. If you wanted to keep a weapon for yourself on a specific character you got a 20% damage boost.

Very legit very respectable choice one would make with their account gear. Miss that really. I only have 1 80 and a few low level alts, but it makes me exhausted thinking about having to build another from scratch.

That is what happens when you get involved with min/max orientated people. They stop seeing a game and look just at their goals.
