I just want an actual viable healer and unless they do something about Specters sub par performance in that role then maybe the next spec can finally offer that for Thief

But Engi rifle is a Shotgun or it was before a certain lead balance dev, Warrior was always more of an Assault Rifle

Hate the Flip, Looks so silly and where is my scream. The Old animation felt like there was weight to it, this new one feels janky AF.

Last year I think but with the recent change to Tactical Reload even the cheesy Bladesworn build died, it kind of exists in WvW for Zerkers but that's about it

So I have seen a lot of complaining since the patch dropped (We all have) especially about the Rifle AA change (And the Mech leash but that requires a whole new post) seeing as I use Rifle on all 3 Classes it is available on (And hopefully Ranger gets one soon please Anet). This isn't like a science test I just stood (Or Kneeled) behind a mil health golem (Not gonna do 4 mil its like 2am) and watched Arc DPS do its thing. The Golems had all condis and had all boons on my toons. First up The Deadeye(Also known as the Queen of RP Walks) The Build is your standard rifle deadeye build Crit Strikes, Deadly Arts and Deadeye (Duh), Full Zerker with Scholar runes and also i was Kneeled so using Deadly Aim as the AA https://imgur.com/us3vt7F A Very Impressive 16.5k (Kind of annoyed at the fact I cant paste in right into the post) Second is the Warrior (I only have Spellbreaker unlocked) The build is pretty normal power warrior Strength, Discipline and Spellbreaker, Full Zerker with Scholar (Original I know) and running with Warriors Sprint instead of Crack shot in the traits(Both 10% damage buffs dont think there would be much difference when just using AA) https://imgur.com/VETHKKM A little sad 9.5k And last but not least Engineer (Holo not Mech I don't have EoD) Build is Power Holo (Normally use Sword/Pistol) Arms, Explosives, Holosmith, (Say it with me now) Full Zerker with Scholar runes https://imgur.com/fbBtpiP 11.6k The Unloved middle child And they all had delays between pressing attack and the first shot coming out, If anything Warrior Rifle needs the Love Engi Rifle is already in a good position. Stick a Mech on there Auto casting and you are gonna be close to 20k easy (Or not like I said no EoD) and yes I am ready for all the confused faces reacting to the post I am used to that at this point ❤️

I am really loving the Holosmith Buffs, The Best Elite is Back ❤️

Catalyst Hammer got a self knockback, Anet aren't against it and it is a super strong CC. And Thematics should be important, without it what's the point of having unique classes/elites.

Once or twice, think i used a hammer. Not really a PvP player, I use a Sword/Shield Holo in WvW 🤷‍♀️

False, I played with Hip shot before quickness. Running around Maguuma with a rifle and my Gyros and I fell in love. Actually don't like how quickness is done on scrapper, really dull.

I still play Heal Scrapper, Was playing before it had quickness and will continue to play it cos its fun. My Boyfriend kept playing Quick Cata for the last few months despite the fact it was "dead" and Mace Power looks like it will still be more then Viable even if Rifle isn't so its not like power is even dead. Hell I like this rifle feels more like the old Rifle.

Never said it was but there are plenty of specs that can only serve one or maybe it can do only DPS(both power and condi) losing Rifle Power Mech isn't the end of the world. If i played mech I would be more annoyed that I have to tie the mech to my toolbelt to have it do damage rather then having one less bullet in my auto cos muh bleed procs. You only need one bleed on the target to have the crit chance gain and your 2 can give you perm bleed anyway.

You may think its a bad weapon but I really like Rifle and really dont see the need to make any more changes its almost unrecognisable from where it was in Early 2021. I want my Self Knockback/Scream Leap back

Dont like the direction Anet are taking the game leave, there are plenty of other MMOs available

I may prefer more complex builds but I have never had an issue with anyone playing power zerker or condi DD, Hell even before the Rifle patch in June there where LI Mace builds for Mech and never had an issue. LI builds shouldn't be AFK get 25k dps, if the Mech Rifle builds was getting 18k dps which is still fine for most Instanced encounters i would have no issue but it wasn't and now they are trying to bring it down suddenly Anet are the devil like WTF.

Oh no I guess it can only do Healing, Alacrity and Condi now 😭 What ever will Mech Mains do? Oh wait that's still more roles then most other elites have or did Weaver Heal/Quickness become a thing in this patch?
