rap music posted:And I will still have Adrenal Health and banner regen. Yes. If you look at all the QQ HS posts on the forums, you can tell that they don't understand that it is the above that make Warriors problematic, not HS alone. Anyone can sustain 400 dps (read: autoattack) it is the other sources of health gain (among other very powerful damage mitigation) that make it difficult to put enough pressure on a warrior to cause them to do something that you can exploit.

Nuudoru posted:Probably. Which elite skill do you use? It's the only Signet I use as a warrior because I don't think the other ones are as useful. The banner, though I will use the signet if I'm roaming for the speed. quote:Warbanner is neat in certain situations, healing signet is overpowered and whatever the stability signet is called is useful too. I find the adrenaline based healing skill to be more useful, with the way I'm specced shouts always give me adrenaline so I'm always topped off or close to it so the skill heals me completely. I can't believe how badly they hosed shout rangers, we need more build variety not less. Warrior nerfs, meh, I didn't use that stuff so it doesn't affect me, I do like the shield one though.

I loved how the devs spent 5 minutes in their 50 minute broadcast (that was covering the changes for ALL classes) defending healing signet. "We don't want to nerf healing signet any more because with the 8% nerf its passive healing per second is at the same level of healing surge" The thing is, is that healing surge requires you to have full adrenaline before matches the (nerfed) HPS of healing signet. Another fact is that healing surge is an active ability and that healing signet is completely passive and non interruptable. Good reasoning, Anet!

Is it weird that I want to make a second Warrior because they're the most fun class?

I'm curious, where does flame thrower fit into a buid? smoke field and blast finisher? Condition build for the toolkit skill for burning? Also count me as one of the people that would love to flamethrower. My dreams of using heal turret to aoe heal in dungeons died a terrible death as every time i went to pop it, someone already had a field down.

Demon_Corsair posted:I'm curious, where does flame thrower fit into a buid? smoke field and blast finisher? Condition build for the toolkit skill for burning? I've gone into it at length Also, Flamethrower doesn't have a smoke field or a finisher. If you want efficient burns, smoke fields and a blast finisher, Flame Turret is one your one-stop shop. It even has longer range than FT's Flame Jet, inflicts longer burns and, after the patch, will inflict them faster and to more enemies than Flamethrower Kit could ever dream. All without a single trait point of investment. The best use of Flamethrower is for its #3: Air Blast, which is a cone knockback & reflect on a short cooldown. #2 (Flame Blast) is pretty good as well. Even factoring its cooldown and lack of burn, it does more damage than Flame Jet. Basically, Flamethrower's problem is that it is a kit completely lacking in purpose. Originally it was designed with a Shock Trooper mentality in mind: a sort of relentlessly advancing siege-breaker. In addition to the 200 toughness it's always given, Juggernaut originally reduced your movespeed by 33% (maybe off on the number) but gave you perma-stability as long as you were in the Kit. The #5, which is now Smoke Vent, used to be an ability called Backdraft, which sucked enemies towards the Engineer and set them on fire. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-Brr3RLX8Q&t=490s (In case it doesn't skip to it: 5:55 for an example and 8:10 to see it in action in a fight.) Flamethrower was powerful, but had a lot of drawbacks: it had short range, it was slow, and it was the one kit that couldn't be used underwater. After repeated nerfs and global changes that affected it, Flamethrower has all the drawbacks (and more) with none of the benefits.

Thanks. I had only ever heard that is was bad. What I had meant to type was about the flame turret, which you spoke so highly of.

Hmmm how to convince anet that warrior run away builds somehow keep us from appreciating Guild Wars 2: the World that Revolves Around Scarlet Briar. Considering how fast they fixed the slayer potion bug after about half a year of ignoring it once it interfered with the living story it looks like that is the only way to get results. Although there are a few minor nerfs in the notes I think it will just be the difference between "warrior runs across map and reaches keep door at 100% health" versus "warrior runs across map and reaches keep door at 90% health". Also they probably won't implement most of the nerfs considering how much hand wringing went on over the idea of bringing warrior passive healing down to the same level as active.

I didnt want to have to bother someone else with my problems, but since I can't post on their forums myself can someone do me a huge favor? Need someone to post in this thread and let them know that ticket #362553 for user hobb.4753 has not been replied to in 5 days now. Anets support is living up to its legendary reputation it seems like. vv thanks a lot, feel like its starting to look grim with the lack of communication. hobb fucked around with this message at 02:52 on Feb 22, 2014 |

Mesmer I would not recommend unless you want to pay 60g for traveler runes and be limited to two effective specs both of which get really old after awhile.

Finally picking this up. Are any of the classes similar in playstyle to the old WoW affliction warlock (DoT everything in range and juggle the mobs until they die or you gently caress up and they kill you)?

There's a bunch of dev posts saying those patch notes are fake. "It appears the poster has taken some of the notes that we have in this thread in an effort to make their own look more legitimate, and mashed them together with some imaginary notes. These are not real patch notes."
