Willblender is easily countered by holding down "W".

It's perfectly fine. Don't touch necro's staff. Or it will be whined to nerfs 1 month later.

You still have Silent Scope. The biggest cheese DE has.

You actually need both corrupts+unblocables to counter any guardian. If they'll bring back corrupts but nerf unblockables it will change nothing in terms of countering guards.

If I remember correctly there are 5 aoe reveals. 2 of them noone is using. 1 is exlusive for herald, 1 is exlusive for DH (trap reveals traps LUL), 1 is exclusive for core necro. There is another problem, for this anet needs to make traps being able to be hitted by skills. I doubt they actually can do it and even if they can, I wonder how many issues it will cause.

You mean, double tell? with actual skill animation and debuffs icon on you? Unmatched with 1000 power that is almost useless for condi builds? The what?

There is a condiburst. It is the only possible way to play condibuild nowadays. Many builds have too much condicleanse per minute and sustain. There are more power builds in meta than condi. 5 powerbuilds vs 5 condibuilds teamfight will be decided not by damage type. OP needs a reality check.

It doesn't reset pull.

GW2 had roles from day 1 in PvP (can't say about PvE, I didn't play that). And roles were in the concept of the game from start. If some classes have skills to heal others and have options to put emphasis on that - you already has healer role in the concept of the game. If some classes have skills to provide boons to others - you already has support role in the concept etc. Those "the game has no roles" was nothing but marketing kitten. And if you think about it to actually achive that "the game has no roles" you have to make classes extremly homogenized. Which is bad gamedesign, IMO.

Meanwhile in this game if your friend is burning and bleeding you can simply shout at him and he will stop burning and bleeding.

If I see a forum post with more than 30 words I just consider it to be Trevor-Boyer's-level of shitpost. So I'll just read last couple of sentences. Nothing personal.

Necro is the hardest class to play. Confirmed.

I didn't know getting first place in one NA pro league season makes a team "the strongest"

Poor engies are dying insta when they fail their cheap 3-buttons burst opener. Like if only they can use dodge, or evadeframes, or block, or superspeed. So sad they don't have it. Engie has another good build which is pretty strong. But it takes actuall skill to play it properly.

I guess you are talking about condi reaper. As usuall spam cc when he's in shroud, spam dmg when he just went out of shroud. Don't get hit by shroud 5 and elite shout. Avoid melee when he is in shroud and has stab (save your block for this). I can advice to not go melee at all unless you want to finish him. You have enough pressure from range and you can always run away from it via superspeed. In the very first fight of the match try to burst him as much as you can. He don't have life force yet and you have high chanses to kill him of force him out of fight for reset. Necro has hard time to obtain life force if first fight is lost for him. TBH, nade scrapper into condi reaper is bad matchup for scrapper, if we are talking about pure duel. Consider taking cleanse sigil and antitoxin rune. Best you can do is call target on him and hard focus him with your mate. He has nothing to save himself from somewhat coordinated burst. Besides wurm port which is unreliable. Since I don't play engie I can't give more details, sorry.

If you are playing mostly against necros and guardians and can't farm them with your "high skill" build I have some questions about your brain cells number and about weight of your opinion in such kind of discussion. Necro actually has low entry point to do basic impact in matches but is it much harder to do high impact or gamechanging plays with it due to a low number of instruments for such things and due to people actually know how to shutdown necro at higher rating.

Warhorn is unblockable again. My point is gw2 is full of stupid balance decisions. Your build either have some to be competitive or it is out of meta. There is also a shout which makes next 10 attacks unblocable on 16 sec cd.

I'm so glad I don't need tools to deal with power damage and can just use pve build for max damage.

Use distortion

Fight on point guys. I can see now how you are dying to condi guard.

Fear mark has different animation.

You forgot to say that I used voodoo and my viewers deliberately lost matches against me.

Previous 5v5 season I got 1612 170 matches played on power reaper, core condi necro, condi harb, about 20 matches on core sup guard and about 5 matches on willblender. I probably played 5-10 matches with duo at first half of the season. About 140 matches were on stream. I mean 170 matches total.

They needed 4 months for this: June 28, 2022 Reduced cooldown from 40 seconds to 30 seconds in PvP only. February 28, 2022 End of Dragons release: Increased cooldown from 30 seconds to 40 seconds in PvP only. I guess even at 28 November the patch will be undercooked

Ranger already has blocks, evades, biggest range in the game (with LB), best melee weapon in the game (GS), good amount of sustain, addition utility in form of pets etc. Even glassiest ranger builds have more def capabilities than some classes. There is no reason for it to has it's own stealth on a pet with already good damage and utility. I'd say ranger shoud not have stealth access at all. It is free because you are not sacrificing anything to get it.
