He was in a 3v1 and he’s upset that he didn’t have enough dodges?

Are you for real? Even a permavigour engi doesn’t have enough dodges to dodge EVERY skill that comes out in a 3v1.

You’ve missed the point entirely. There should be no skills in the game that instant-kill you if you don’t dodge. Doesn’t matter if it’s a 1v1 or a 50v50. Dodges are something that should be used to HELP mitigate damage, not the only thing that stands between life and death.

On my warrior i rarely find rifle useful at all. If i use in small scale combat it will never hit. If i use it when defending on wall they will get downed and resurrected back up in 2 seconds. If i use it in 50v50 i am the first to die because the activation take so long my allies is already far away from me.
What about backstab? impossible to dodge unless you’re lucky. Or if you already know hes there you can try to time it. Infact its so little telegraphed they can kill you in the middle of a zerg solo finish you off and run away.
Killshot is a fun skill but its never going to change the result of a battle.

They are nerfing healing signet happy? You may stop the QQ now the skill will be nerfed. Sooner or later you must admit you are a terrible player if you cant outdps it.

This change is not making any sense, cant they at least give us 10% more hp as compensation for 10% nerfed critical damage.

You would had died anyway. You need rabid to stack bleeds fast enough.
Also heard of this skill deathly swarm or doom? you know it can reduce killshot damage by 100%? use it. But even the best necro in the game would had died to 3 average players.

Without healing signet they are nothing!. If you cant out damage 400 hp/s then you should reconsider you’re build. They have no protection, no stealth,no pets etc.
It take skill to play warrior. At least in wvw, Its do or die. They have little room for error.

Someone suggested temporary items that would last a month they could wear a santa hat during christmas that could cost 1-10gems. I would love that.

Robert.4197:

The guy that accused me of not doing enough DPS was the first to die. I’m pretty sure he was in zerker gear. Anyway, whatever, I think zerkers are bad and zerkers think PVT players are bad. Who’s right? Who’s wrong? I don’t know but if a zerker is lying on the ground dead, how much DPS is he contributing to the team? If he’s such a bad player and that is why he’s dying, than zerker gear is not for him. So in this case being zerker can actually make a dungeon run take longer.

Mobs aggro mechanic goes like this
1) Who is closest. ok 2 guys are using melee.
2) Who have highest armor, that guy have 3k armor – > attack
So the only way he could die first if there was not a lot of aoe is if the players in pvt were using ranged.

If they are going to nerf zerker ascended they can atleast give you a option to change the stats to the next optimal stats so you dont have to go trough all the grind again.

Sina.9208:

How about a compromise. No leap when you are standing inside your target xd

That’s actually a genius idea. What if they just stop leaping on stationary targets.

Xavi.6591:

Question about a warrior’s Piercing Shot – does is only hit players in between you and your target or does it also hit players on the other side of your target to?

It hits targets in a line, too me this is mandatory when using rifle. If you see the commander in wvw charging towards you and hit him you could easily down 3 players behind him.

I rerolled back to necromancer after they nerfed hammer and mace i dont really see what all the fuss is about warrior is easy to kill now.

Starwars the old republic → that way.
we don’t need more technology in this game.

Once one in our server glitched trough gate then someone say gfto we dont hack here.
then he jumped down, think that was pretty responsible if he had started to clear siege i would report him for botting closest one.

Kratos.6293:

wait wait wait does that mean guardians out dps warriors

Nope in the same scenario with every single buff in the game warrior would hit 100k with hb. Just autoattacking with axe warrior do more dps than guardian spamming all their keys. (Not counting reflected damage).
That’s just silly because that is too random. Because mesmer can reflect 200k dmg to lupicus dosent mean they are going to every fight.

This is a score chart from another game which i cant mention so anet dont ban me, anyways i think it would be interesting to see how well you perform compared to other players. The Chart could reset every tick what do you think?

They reduced the AoE limit to 5 targets due to technical limitations.
Maybe they could look into if it would be possible to raise it a little bit.
to get some counterplay to this tactic. If they could also make it so you may only revive downed players when out of combat.
And if you die force respawn in 10 seconds.
Then wvw could had been more about tactics than numbers.
Without the AoE limit 3 engineers could wipe an entire map blob with grenade barrage. To be honest that would had been much more fun.
There would be a reason to spread out. And think about what skills you are using.

There is no tanky builds in gw2. Only a dodge button, get used to it. Why do you think everyone ask for zerker gear except for wvw. The “pros” in my server always blame glasscannon players when we get wiped in wvw. I tell them why bother? I’m doing just perfect with these stats. Then ofcourse they respond with l2p kid or something.

Bombsaway.7198:

Warrior has too many areas where it is too strong or top tier with no corresponding weakness. I needs the most nerfing.

Lets see warrior have no pets, minnions, illusions, spirits, virtues, device kits, stealing,stealth, death shroud, group support(They only have DPS support).

What areas are they too strong in again?

I would like to see friendly fire in wvw but then there should be friendly fire on everything, Not just trebuchet.
A better question would be why is pot of oil completely useless and never kill a player except for maybe some level 1 that never played before. What can they do about that maybe more HP on oil and then it should be 50x as much because it get destroyed in
10 seconds max. And it never ever kill any players.

Warrior: Shield stance block attacks.
Engineer: Gear shield block attacks.

I miss some of my friends who quitted.

Nerf mobility??? NO WAY a ele managed to run away from me ended up with me getting owned by the whole zerg when chasing , If anything NERF ELE MOBILITY!!!

Consider renaming the thread to Armor cap to ruin the game for the ones having fun.

State of the game pvp balance:
Warrior→Necromancer→Engineer→Ranger→Mesmer→Guardian→Theif→Elementalist

Roll warrior if you want to win.

I got this couple of times people who friend me who i never meet , who never said Hi. Didn’t say anything. Then I’m wondering what they want and i keep them there for a week or 2 then block them. Don’t like stalkers.

A good start for necro would be to put Dagger cleaving damage.
Its just small daggers so it make sense they are single target but if they just did some more cleaving damage it would fix a lot of problems with necro.
DS should scale with you’re current health/armor like it used to.
Minions die too fast. Give them a little more hp 300% as much as they currently have.
Maybe a couple condition heavy areas which make necros particularly useful to cleanse conditions too? just an idea.

I always leave when i see players trying to play tank in pve just a waste of time.

They nerf this and i will never play theif in wvw again.
Its actually quite useful for scouting.
Unfortunately thats pretty much the only thing they are good at.

They can hit so hard yes. but then they are so squishy you could do the same with burning speed+firegrab.
This is kinda the point of the skill. Else it would had been useless.
Its like complaining about sniper do more damage than a pistol in a fps game.
Most warriors don’t use it anyway because it miss so much their better off just autoattacking a couple times. Kill shot is a burst skill go figure.

Warrior

Stats berserker on everything with scholar runes on armor.

Traits
Strenght: 30 , V, IX, XI
Arms: 25, V, X,
Defense: 0
Tactics: 0
Discipline: 15, II

Primary weapons ( You will be using this for 95% of all fractals, Might want to use longbow more until you get used to it.)
Berserker GS with bloodlust sigil
Axe with force sigil & mace with sigil of leeching.

On utilities you can chose what fits best and change accordingly if there other warriors.
I like to use Healing signet,For great justice,Signet of fury, Banner of discipline, Signet of rage.

Enjoy

Seriously why do people always see nerf as the only solution, you want to use condition damage but its too weak. well then buff it by 500% or something.
Fix the broken, Don’t break the working mechanics.
“Thats powercreep”, No it isn’t.
The skills in this game is way to basic to even worry about that.
In wow where you have 50 buttons nerfing would probably be better.

GS is fine just needs f1 and rush fixed. /thread

Exactly and HB is suppose to be a high risk/high reward skill, its working as intended.

tom.7468:

That would had been a welcome change but its one of the only warrior skills that is channeled. The only times where i can pull of all the hits is on downed players.
Axe is more mobile, I use it when fighting players that kites or jump in/out stealth.
Against good players GS is not viable at all. But when used in combination with other weapons its still quite strong.

I think i don’t understand.. Gs is fine but not viable against good players..Please explain me what does it mean cause something cannot be fine and at same time unviable.

On the other hand im sure if u have to spend sources to make just 1 skill working – its a piece of junk followed by a piece of junk desing, perhaps thats the reason why i see gs war as a freekill from miles

If HB was almost guaranteed to land the damage would have to be nerfed.
Else wouldn’t that be OP? And if you want that why not just use autoattack?
HB can be useful in wvw if there is a lot of players and they bunker up.
Pve is spank/tank huge hp bars 1 shot mechanics, Its perfect there.
Things that should be fixed is rush, It doesn’t always hit players. I even jumped off a cliff and died when using it once. Then the burst skill is basically always useless.

But with target collision turned off, I just walk through warriors who 100b… it’s so easy to counter. Even when the one tricks come along and try to BC me, I just dodge, or stun break/stability out, then dodge again to evade the whirl. It’s definitely a more PvE focused skill.

What if it were changed so that you can move while using 100b, but you move very very slowly, like rp walk? Still high risk/reward, and not so easily counterable.

When playing warrior one thing that i find odd is that i never need to activate healing signet. Even if I’m low on health its better to just keep the passive effect.
So i was thinking what if we got 5 seconds of stealth on activate? then the healing would come when stealth ends.

Just drop support go 100% dps it beat every content in the game not counting spvp.
By trying to do something else you are just gimping yourself. The game is all about DPS.

This remind me of Storm of the Imperial Sanctum in starcraft 2.
There could only be 1 of each hero on both teams.
There was 3 ultra OP assasssin classes:
Geminus Boros
Shadow Geminus
Tiberius Rancor

Basically those would be chosen the first second the match started and many would leave if they couldn’t play those. We dont want that.

I would prefer if they just nerfed it.
Btw i kill those lyssa thieves easy and i also know how to kite for 5 seconds.

I used to run trap ranger in pvp but it has been many ranger nerfs and necro buffs since then. Everyone said they were useless even teams that lost said i was useless when i turned out to have the highest score. But the truth is their not. At least they have been good. I haven’t played ranger at all since shortbow got nerfed last time.

Gw2 AKA World of charrcraft take everything you loved about gw1 and throw it out of the window.

I’m a althoholic but i always end up playing my warrior the most because he just does everything more efficient.

So basically what you mean is that we should be able to build stuff like barracks and stables inside buildings to build mercenaries? that actually sounds interesting.

Abbadon died in end of nightfall. Closest would be Menzies the Mad.
But most likely its a villain we haven’t seen before or scarlet…

I would like to see less armor with skirts for male! especially heavy armor I’m stuck with hall of monument armor because its one of the few who actually looks manly.
Seriously look at Human male heavy armor Im a man let me dress like one.

Only problem with it is. If only DPS matters then the professions with highest dps will always be best. The trinity in gw1 was more than just dps/tank/healer.
Professions had roles not just they are all dps but once every 1 min or 2 they could interrupt.

This is not a exploit only in places where mobs cant hit you, they basically do it so they can kill all mobs at once instead of 1 by 1 it go faster.
Speed = money , That’s also why groups prefer players with berserker stats.

Just have 1 thing to say to this. Thanks for the burst mastery nerf arenanet. My warrior is officially useless in pvp i will play exclusively necromancer until its working again.

I won with 5 necros once the other team was rank 40-55 with balanced setup.

Necro with dire stats is best, Out of those 3 warrior.
