There is actually another problem for the leaderboard. If person A was rank 250 with say 1500 then person B gets higher ranking than person A and takes their spot with say 1501. Should person B now drop bellow 1500 person A does not get back their spot. So if you are at the end of the list you have to play a game at the end of the season or you get scammed by the system. That is how you end up finishing a season with more points than top 250 enough games and no decay.

Please stunned by, we will see what we can knock up to knock back daze pesky mood sinks. We will pull every register to lift up your mood. We assure you the float of CC will be over in a stunbreak.

Like others have pointed out before you can swap or stow cancel burst that would miss to keep adrenaline. Sword is different as it imobilises kinda instant ofc. But I agree that you notice this especially in the team deathmatch or in duels. Warrior is kinda not even a proper class till you get at least one bar of adrenaline and even then you kinda need a burst hit to rly get you started. Sth that I rly dislike evet since thy made adrenaline drop so fast is how when you use a gain 30 adrenaline skill ooc you instantly have to use it or it will start depleting right away. At least let me have it for idk 5 sevonds before it drops or at least one full second. I mean I paied in utility cds for it kitten. This change would also help some PvE warriors so that might be a realisticone to hope for.

You can look it up in the wiki. To reach rank 20 you need 54000 points. In unranked yiu gain 1500 per win and 500 per loss. With a winrate of 50% you gain an average of 1000 points per game. Therefore you need 54 games with a winrate of 50%. You can play 3-4 games an hour. So you need 13.5 to 18 hours of unranked to reach rank 20. Note that there are guild boost and other boosters to significantly speed up the process. PS: If you want to know what PvP is like unranked can give you a good hint at it already. If you find yourself not enjoying unranked it is unlikely (not impossible ofc) that you will like ranked.

Try using stomp it is actually really good. Not brokenlevel good like shake it off but easily as good as bullscharge.

I am only playing coee warrior and spb and the worst thing to fight is prop deadeye it forces me to go los imideately or risk it and all out engage. And when it comes to the problematic war specs the best way to get rid of one is to just fight them decap the node slowly then fight on white node till your team + you -> get kill or cap keep at least as spb you can last pretty long unless your timing happens to be off during a rotation. Scourge doea bad vs warrior in pvp dunno about wvw but in pvp any warrior even core warrior can win against scourge. Or I guess all the warrior with no passive stab generation and cleansing ire users. As with any neco you have to give up space at first to no stans in the AoE but eventually you grind them down and win. Condi builds that struggle to die are obv good vs almost anything thus also vs warrior. If at some point you cleanse at thr wrong time and now you lack one depth of cleanse and that torment/bleeding/burning is unlceanses you loose. All defense warriors with cleansing ire will rofl stomp any condi builds as long as they land bursts it is kinda free tbh. But when you fight vs condi and your burst are blinded blocked by aegis and evaded or outspaced then you will struggle against any build that has more than 2 cover condis. You still have mending disiclipne and the broken shake it off. Shake it off is a big problem here because it does too much of everything with too low of a cd but its the only instant condi remove that isnt weaponswap that you get on warrior as well. The signet is still not instant cast unless they unbeknownst to me fixed it. Lastly the current meta shows that aegis is just broken if there is too much of it. Maybe it is time for aegis to get the retaliation treatment?

Wtf, 4 out of 6 physical skills are already super strong. Mending, rampage, bullscharge and stomp. To the ppl that say that stomp sends the ppl too far away. You can land stomp and just run after the target. The duration of the cc effect is 1.5 seconds. You can cast mending running after them and. Still get them with arcing slice before they can move. Do not forget that stomp is one of the few aoe cc options warrior has. Its pretty much stomp, earthshaker, rampage and technically mace 5. Therefore it is also a good option against inisible targets. Also with superspeed you are pretty much as fast as the ragdolls. Not to mention you get easy combos with axe burst, shield bash, bladetrail, axe throw, Hammer 3, linkt into hammer 4 or 5, Hammer 2 ofc, earthshaker, skullcrack ... etc. The list is pretty much every warrior skill ecept even GS5 and that says a lot. If stomp would send nowhere it would be a big nerf . No more moving downed bodies nomore sending ppl of elevations or towardas your teammates. Lastly if you want stomp to send nowhere then stomp ppl towards obstacles.

Chain pulls like magebane or dh chain can pull regardless of evade. This has always been the case.

There are different populations at different times and weekdays. Then population changes depending on holydays too. G3 level saturday evening vs tuesday evening is miles apart. Keep in mind that one can rank in at any point during a season. So you may face a veteran that lost jis first placement game and is currently silver. These factors should even out however and if you play enough games not matter at all. If you go on long loose streaks you might have to factor in that you get tired and tilted and you cant notice this in the moment necessarily. Next time record one of your games then quite and watch the replay another day. You might notice that you actualy played worse that you thought at the time. In the future coniser quiting the game and play on another day that way you might only have a 4 games lose streak.

In my experience Banner of Tactics works well and has its own pros and cons over bullscharge. The 5 sec of Superspeed give you more mobility than bullscharge in a lot of situations and the pulsing resistance helps in a number of matchups. It is also a good tool to save teammates or counter shockauras from tempest in teamfights. Amazing for disengages and engages. Drawback cast time(1sec) and cd (30sec ) Also maybe consider playing berserker. For some reason they thought it was a good idea that berserker gets superspeed on entering and exiting berserker mode. On a sidenode. Stomp is one of the best utilities for warrior in the game. Before they buffed shake it off, for no reason whatsoever..., it was the single lowest cd stunbreak on warrior. (Shake it off should rly got the 30seccd baseline not 24 sec, anet is probably sponsored by taylor swift) Futhermore it has 1 stack of stab so you can escape or pass over any walls/rings. Any warrior skill combos off it. (1.5sec duration) Its one of the few AoE cc abilities that warrior has. On hit you get an extra stack of stab You can swap cancel it at any time It has a deceptively large range.

Fair all I am saying is that you do have options aside from the heal buying you 4 seconds and normal endure pain. So time to kill on berserker is much longer than you would maybe expect. I had the marchup a lot when i was playing olfschool core warrior and having to close the distance and then quickly killing the berserker out of a teamight was pretty much impossible. For any single person it is extremely dangerous to engage and try to kill such a berserker on its own if you mess up you could easily find yourself at low hp behind enemy lines and berserker getting away with superspeed Like a lot of war build it is strong when it works out but sometimes you know its almost impossible to work based on the opponents comp alone. As for rifle berserker thief shuts it down like no other it badically can no longer participate when the enemy thief wont let it. Then again that is a problem a lot of power based warriors have and the reason a lot of us are playing spellbreaker instead. Spellbreaker always has some use even if you get outplayed. Oh I hate spellbreaker...

Does berserker not offer a lot of defences after the lates buffa to it. You get superspeed on every primal burst you can saw out of berserker mode at will you get discount endure pain on entering and exiting and you can even have a discount heal skill too if you want. Ofc you lose abit of dmg but you dont give up a lot much like these other classes you think about.

Here is the thing "Acid bomb" is a problem and needs to be fixed. Lets start at what acid bomb does. 1. There is no aoe indicator for opponents. 2. The tooltip doesn't reflect the dmg it does asnit uses an outdated notation describing its effect. 3. It can be canceld almost instantly reducing its cast time to something negligable and only losing the movement. 4. Its overloaded doing this much dmg being an explosion finisher and a fast movement skill and it is unblockable kinda like necro wells 5. Its cooldown is so low that when using the trait for extender duration you have an almost 100% uptime on the thing. Now here are some differences between 100 blades and acid bomb. 100 blades is a channel that means you can only do things at instant speed while casting it Acid bomb however is an aoe an you can cast anything you want during its effect. 100 blades has less of an aoe effect than acid bomb. Acid bomb is circular 100 blades is a cone. Although for both skills have its effect startet at your characters position warrior needs to stay place engineer does not. 100 blades does the dmg quicker but overall acid bomb and 100 blades have similar dmg. If 100 blades is canceled it does no longer do dmg. 100blades has its strongest tick be its very last one while acid bomb has linear dmg Now the only redeeming factor. 100 blade is a weapon skill on a good weapon while acid bomb is in a bundle on a utility slot. And utility slots are highly contested on any class. At the same time its annoying to swap to elixir gun and back to cast it as weapon swaps mess up the way skills are buffered/queued up in gw2 making it a pain when the game lags. Acid bomb is the kind of skill that could be a utility skill on its own. However there are some parts of it that desperatly need fixing. Like aoe indicator for oponents aside for 2 orr like swamp explosions at the start and somwhere near the end ther is no effect for it mind you. As well as reworking the tooltip for the skill so ppl realise that it does more dmg than necromancer wells is sth that need to happen. The funny thing its that your point is about single skills doing to much dmg in teamfight by randomly throwing them out when acis bomb could easily rack up 100k dmg in a rando teamfights and as you pointed out it exeptional for cleaving downstate and rezing players. It is unblockable.by default btw. Befor you point it out if you stand outside the teamfight an use it it will most likely do no dmg but if you 100 blades next to the teamfight for full duration you also do 0 dmg but this would be equivalent to self stunning yourself for 2.5 seconds.

On the topic of cc. How do you guys feel about fear and taunt? As they are both hard cc and conditions they also get counterded by both. Say a necromancers fears me and I was not feared before. I can now use a conditioncleanse with depth1 imediately as in this moment fear is on top of the stack and i will be free. In PvP any class can escape fear like this by using the cleanse sigil. In addition to that resistance also disables them. taunt on the other hand still messes up a lot of stunbreaks as they refuse to work depending on some abscure timing. Should fear and taunt be turned into real hard cc effects? This would reduce the amount of individual conditions in the game and make them more predictable for the users.

Idk about vindicator but reckless dodge does not prevent you from rolling while dazed. It should also still have its effect as the "skill" is an instant cast skill if you will and you can use those while hard cced. If you are dazed and imobilized you cant dodge because of immob. Spellbreaker has an adept trait "no escape" that imobilises opponents that are getting dazed by spb for 1 sec. The special dodges have a weird thing going on where you can start your dodge and get cced at the same time resulting in you dodging while cced. Although you still get launched knocked back/down you evade.
