Guild Wars 2

Crinn.7864:

Of course the old players are quitting, they’ve been playing for what 3 years now? Chances are many where just looking for the slightest excuse to rage quit.

its not that, if u rly love the game u stay for far long than 3-4 years. personally i played lineage 2 for allmoast 8 years back in the day
i dont feel the atraction anymore bcz i hate to wait alot just to make tarir/td/ds etc. and i bet im not the only1, my friends list is falling down day by day too, now i just log in, do the daily, maybe farm a little and ofc notice that my beloved thief its not good in pvp, same as my warr
ppl leave, true, but never like this time

Marthkus.4615:

Anet wanted the toxic meta players out of dungeon content. They were willing to throw nice meta players under the bus for that.

that toxic meta kept the game alive and gave a good gold making strategy by forcing you to get better at pve content, shure, now we have raids… personally i dont care about that new shiny stuff. i want a place where all classes work (dungeons)
dungeon nerf its just a cheap glancing blow to move us away from what we like doing
bring em’ back

warr greataxe as hybrid weapon? interesting
thief still needs ranged dps… YES >> crossbow for thief

but as nike said, this type of implementation takes alot of time and effort and for now we can dream about this

but still, i think that every class needs unique weapons cuz now u see mesmers, reapers,warrs…etc. using GS and if all of them put outfits…yeah

Agemnon.4608:

What would a greataxe offer mechanically that can’t also be done with a greatsword or maybe hammer? I think some greatsword skins should be greataxes. Since we had three legendary greatswords in the base game maybe one of the HoT legendary greatswords can be a T-Rex themed greataxe with the other greatsword skin being a guitar with rifts as you swing and have pyrotechnic footsteps?

Greataxes as skins for hammers or greatswords would be good enough while introducing a whole other weaponset would create even more balancing issues.

a weapon that combiness CC and pure Dps
just imagine number 3 from GS on a greataxe and backbreaker from hammer in one weapon for example

this will be fun in some future expansion

also, Nike, i like the slingshot

just specced for pure rifle in PVE and oooowh my god what u can do with it, just grab some veterans+ normal mobs, pack em’ together and use 2 bursts (tested in frostgorge sound behind jormag spawn at those 2 veteran wolfs)
the evade on 4th skill is soo nice for pure long range, hit 5 then 4 and u have big gap between u and mobs

give some ideas on weapons for other classes

Warlord.9074:

what if we can just get a keybind so that we can use our other burst without having to swap weapons.

like an F3 ? but Anet should find a way to mix animations or we would see GS warr randomly throwing out gunflame out of the blue
in berserk mode warr can dish out 4 bursts, if on each we get 2-3 seconds of protection it will be nice

a little fun idea, what if we can get 2-3 seconds of protection after we hit a burst? this will make us a little more viable in team fights since we melt when stances end

rifle is the only thing that can show a middle finger to enemyes at range, gunflame is the best thing that warr have now :/ so if u nerf its damage, it will be useless, my point of view

emkelly.2371:

Seems they just wanted players to run rifle/axe,axe for some reason.

yes, cuz warrior can use only 2-3 weapon types, not 70% of ingame weapons)

so our axe offhand got some serious buff(meaningless since axe AA chain its much more powerfull)…
no stance rework, 20 hp more heal from signet…few cooldowns reduced
“good job”

you can still snipe if u want (but u pay the price, by loosing passive hp gain from healing signet)
point is that i traited myself for max adrenaline gain and all that s**t and it still sux…
wonder what nerf awaits us by the next corner ^^ (last step is disabling GS/axe )
they cut down our damage, boon duration and messed our adrenaline (and this is all told in a nutshell)…

’bout thrill of the kill trait y its useless now and it allways been (at least for me)
we should forget about 15% damage bonus/precision under the effects of adrenaline, at least until Anet wakes up( pray for it)

eh well, hamfast is right, at least from my point of view, adrenaline shouldnt be something that vanishes in thin air, especially when the fight reaches its peak.

after 1 year and 3 months…i rolled another class…
warrior inspired power, courage,that feeling of “bulletproofness”…all gone

now i sit and stare at my character selection screen hoping that someday his armor will shine again and that piece of a cold steel will slice foes once more

“This is my story! "

and btw, we can complain AFTER we see the patch in action, not now

okok, we all have complains, i have too due to berserkers power.
lets see the other options about we can improve even more the warrior when the patch goes live. from my little experience in pve and wvw, a 3.2k overall defence warrior with soldier runes and a few shouts, stomp, little traits in stability, will never have problems with CC or any condition stacker
use the shield+axe wisely, trait them wisely for reflect dmg, if they run and hit, just pull out a rifle with ice sigil>> they become the pray, u the hunter
>> lets see the NERF in action :/

i get the same trial error/boot
cant log
