Guild Wars 2

I haven’t had a chance to test it much yet. I’m more interested in using it to get might right now.

I see anet read some of my suggestions. Happy to see the hammer and rifle getting love.

It’s too early to say warrior isn’t viable. I think it is viable now, I just hope it isn’t because warriors need rampage.

Rampage
I personally think rampage is too strong but engi and warrior variant. It does too much damage and the CD is too long.

Savage instinct
This trait should clear more than 2 conditions. I think 3 is fair.

Shouts.
They need an overhaul similar to rangers. A few of them are really useless.

Omy mark is a good example. Fear as a pretty long CD.

Shake it off doesn’t clear enough conditions it should go up to 3 without soldier runes. Shake it off was based on a game mode without torment, slow, or any of the new conditions added to the game. 1 condi doesn’t cut it.

For great justice. The might was nerfed so its not really that effective anymore. It should go up to 5 might stacks and a longer duration of fury.

Healing shouts don’t heal for enough. ANET was thinking that taking banner regen and healing shouts would be too strong. I think it is but 1k is nothing.

Ya I don’t want to run shouts. Shouts are not good enough. Shake it off is one condition 2 if soldier runes. come on

Fear is awesome with too long CD even traited.

On my mark is worthless.

For great justice is the only one that is kinda OK but since the might nerf its really bad.

Given that shouts only heal for 1k now and not 2k like before I can see no point in running them.

Math for 21 seconds based on healing sig and adrenal healing full adrin. 10829

the cd is still a little high. 30 seconds on a heal is a no go for me.

try before you cry. I said this before and i’ll say it again. warrior was in a good spot already but other classes need to be brought down a ton.

Fast forward other classes have been brought down a ton and warriors were buffed. Quit crying please if you don’t even tryed it.

We got a lot of buffs and only a couple nerfs that have no effect on PVP.

The only nerf to PVP is zerkers stance but zerkers stance is now stitutionally better.

It’s funny to me that the most imaginative thing ANET can come up with is make Necros gods in their balancing approach.

can i have your stuff.

It’s a buff in that if you have a ton of condis on you already and you pop it.

it was 362 before its now 381 despite it saying 382. Adrinal healing is 402 3 bars it was 351.

This is on zerk amulet btw. Its about 38HP per second more (full adrin). its hardly enough.

only if u are a pve.

It’s a buff and a nerf. It doesn’t look terrible.

have you even tried it? I havn’t. The berserker buffs look pretty strong though on paper.

kralkatorrik calling it now

are we there yet.

Predicting to see a lot of them again. Thats my prediction.

we don’t have an issue with pets being strong as long as the pet owner isn’t too strong. Right now its both.

ANET has to make a choice leave pets how they are and nerf rangers or nerf pets. Have your pick because you can’t have both.

To the person saying in other mmos with pets they don’t have the same problems thats not true at all. It’s always a problem in other MMOs but usually the problem isn;t in PVP its PVE. With pet classes being able to solo content that non pet classes need groups for.

The reason they don’t complain about pets in those games about being insanely strong is because the pet owner essentially are pet clerics and the pet tanks for them and they are weak as heck.

You can’t easily kill a druid or ranger pet, and they can just swap pets without impunity. So your only strategy in defeating rangers is to ignore the pet.

This is the whole problem. A fix would be any damage, condition, cc a ranger takes always effects the pet.

If a ranger is feared so is the pet and I am talking about baseline.

ya burst mastery is too good. It’s keeps your adrenaline full, that means you don’t lose adrenal healing also, which seems to be part of your build.

no burst mastery really hurts mace. It’s too easy to fail, I would never take that quickness trait over burst mastery in just about any build.

Especially with mace.

Traditionally or currently? Considering the meta will shift next week. The question is pointless. why even ask now when in 4 days everything will change.

The only thing I can think of as to why dominik is arguing is he is very inexperienced regarding this topic. ANd ya ele can maintain at least 4-6 boons + the several other boons they are getting from others.

Making it a physical skill would reduce its CD when traited with Physical skill redux. Making it a 15 sec CD. For 1.

He hit me for 6.2k with 5 boons. Without DOTE he hit me for 5.2k. Anyone whoe thinks DOTE does not work or is not worth taking over BR has no idea what they are talking about.

Just a simple test. 1st screen shot is Evicerate wihout DOTE.

2nd screenshot is with DOTE and 4 boons. No thick skin was used. no might.

3rd screenshot is DOTE with 5 boons.

People who say DOTE doesn’t work don’t really pay much attention.

atleast chibbi gets it. In the current meta you are not going to sustain nothing even with BR thats why its useless and everyone spams boons. Good luck even hurting bunkers without DOTE when everyone is on a bunker.

If this was to change and we go to a more burst meta, its not going to change for warriors becasue we already play that way. BR wont help you here either bcuz in a burst meta its kill or be killed.

My issue with all of the rifle builds are simple. It requires you to have a group to carry you +1 and that’s all. you can’t fight on point at all since rifle requires range to work and fighting on a point is not a range thing, unless its maybe mid on foefire. So its pretty much a bad build in my opinion for solo play.

And Obino that is very lucky for solo, my experience is every other match I have got a bad or several bads on it that doesn’t know how to play and I lose. Or I end up with other players who are also running only +1 specs. Too many +1 specs doesn’t work.

Air Force is better than air fire when your sample size is larger than total unbuffed 100b damage.

Air fire is really good for burst damage, but its not the highest sustained damage.

Doesn’t work all of the time.

sometimes the player isn’t down where they appear to be. when I use a movement skill they are somewhere else and I have to cleave the air where they supposedly are.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they reduced the CD to 50 seconds. They made king of fired like that to try and make rage skills usedful. so its 5 stacks of burning instead of 2. Thats significant. ANd a fire shield is way better than the old way it worked in pvp atleast.

Lose and loose are not pronounced the same way. So it’s more annoying to see than mistaking there, their, and they’re. Lose is pronounced like ooze, while loose is pronounced like Juice. There, they’re and their all sound the same depending on a persons accent of course.

I can say I honestly don’t have that problem Arc Devider is too easy to land. Range is huge and it doesn’t need a target. From my testing its larger than the rated 450 range and it hits targets behind you.

Here is my TOP List.
Top 4
Warrior
Thief
Guardian
Revenant

Bottom
Necro
Engi
Ele
Ranger
Mesmer

warriors don’t need any of those things, warriors just need their skills to land and anet to fix them so they land.

go to settings. key bindings. keybind dodge. use it.

QQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQ my post is just as unnecessary as this thread. Are you reading this anet?

lighter.2708:

people will l2dodge and use something more offensive or leech..

Ya I don’t understand how someone can take brawlers recovery over what seems like usually at least a 12% damage increase, when you have CI /w berserker spec and can spam burst skills faster than you can swap.

This looks more like a dueling build than a serious PVP build.

For all of the players saying they are having issues with condis just a quick question. Are you using a greatsword with CI and Berserker spec? Because if you are not than thats probably your problem/.

Interpret Interrupt.3824:

Using DotE when you have Brawler’s Recovery…Do not complain about conditions then.

If we are going to shift to a burst meta burst is whats going to be important to our viability.
Conditions really are not an issue. At least on Besrerker spec if you trait CI. This is what I was using for seasons and I never had issues with condis. http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vJAQNAR3enMdA1dgVhAehAElilqATpH04yBvn2U7sFpA0ACAA-TpBFABMcQAW4CAgwRAAgHAg4lBaZ/BA

People who are posting here saying warriors are at the bottom in terms of raw offenxse are kidding themselfs. They are only 2nd to thief’s and maybe guardians in terms af raw burst damage.

Its favorable for Thiefs, and warriors. . Forcing other classes into squisher builds only helps warriors and thiefs.

I’ve seen most of the people post in here are just simply wrong. It favors Medi guards as well. Pretty much any class that can 100-zero you will be king. Warriors are one of those classes. Without your bunker boon walls to hide behind you can say good night.

Energy sigil now gives vigor instead of endurance. Everyone will have vigor use destruction of empowered.

In PVP because of Vigor.

Good to know I don’t wvw that much anymore, but I guess back line gunflame warrior is a thing now. I generally run the same build when I roam as I do in PVP. GS A/S with berserker spec instead of Str. You do lose out on a sone dammage. But I think taking eternal champion and sloting CI over Last stand makes it a lot more viable. Since with the superior cleansing of zerker spam and CI I take DOE over brawlers its not a huge loss.

condi pressure is strong until u run into zerker build with a lot of condi clears. Or any zerker build for that matter that don’t get hit by your condis.
