Clearly an l2p issue guys.I really don't understand the problem, i'm having a lot of fun and absolutely dominate in 3s right now.Playing my Dh together with the scourge of my friend is super fun right now.Especially since we're constantly getting better at putting more aoe on the ground and i'm getting close to actually using all of my abilities! Well i only just hit plat, so i guess i still have some time to fully learn the demanding playstyle of my dh.

Looks like yu can't seem to understand what everyone has been trying to say the entire thread : It's not strong. At all. One simply steps out of the AoEs, then cleanse the Burning, and Burn Guard becomes officially useless. Yawn.Buddy, there are way more troublesome builds than an easy counter-able one like Burn Guard.Explosive Scrapper/Holo, Condi Bunker Renegade, Condi Herald just to name a few.Burn Guard is in no way dominant, and is the least of anyone's worries. The heck? Wanna play an MMORPG with unique classes but prefer stifled build options?Here's an idea then : Uninstall Gw2, and go play Counter Strike. Here's my twocents of this whole Burn Guard "issue" some people seem to have : If yur so bad at the game that yu can't beat Burn Guard, maybe yu deserve to remain in Silver/Gold where yu belong. Do I sound like a jerk?Hell yea, but it's the truth. No, you sound like someone having absolutely no intention of arguing with any kind of honesty.You seem to intentionally take what i said out of context or misinterpret it.Telling someone to "unistall" ,since his opinion is different, also doesn't make you only look like a jerk - it makes you look like an edgy kid being unable to have any kind of meaningful discussion (also pretty sad , considering that you have over 1,5 THOUSAND comments on here).Im also not sure if you meant to attack me (or my "skill") with your talk about silver/gold.But i will give you the benefit of the doubt and pretend that you were just stereotyping - since i never said that i have problems fighting/winning against the build.Still - that doesn't mean i can't still think that the build is unhealthy for the game.But well -I guess i will try one last time treating you like someone trying to actually have a meaningful discussion, even though its probably a waste of time... I never said that the build is "dominant" in the sense that its being played at the absolute highest level of PvP or is the best build for Tournaments.It's "strong" cause it's "dominating" the lower PvP brackets since its extremly easy to play - while also being extremly effective.This leads to extremly unfun matches for MOST OF THE POPULATION (silver, gold, low plat) , so saying that it's the least of ANYONES worries is just plain wrong.There is a reason why such builds often get talked about here. If you want to argue that everyone below rating X doesn't matter, fine , but don't come in here and pretend that it doesn't affect the game.Since it definitely does.And while this may come suprising to you - you aren't alone in the game.If unfun builds dominante most of the game (silver/gold/ low plat) then this will affect the population (even more).High level play is also affected by this (well, duh) , since usually people only get better at a game when they invest time into it- and nobody will invest time in a game which isn't fun in the earlier stages. Im obviously also not saying that my opinion on this issue is absolutely the correct one.But if you are honestly interested in furthering a conversation, then maybe you should try to sometimes step out of your bubble (as someone who has played this game for years) - and try to understand how newer players feel (again, not even talking about me).Cause even if something doesn't affect you , doesn't mean it may not be a problem or is bad for the game. Especially as someone who is investing as much time as you in the forum - disregarding other opinions (without at least trying to understand their point) and attacking people (instead of arguments) just makes every discussion unnecessary toxic and unproductive.

Defend it?People are giving advice on how to beat it. Like bruh, if everyone who encounters just the tiniest problem and begs the devs for nerfs, we wouldn't even have a game left.In fact, it's due to this sort of thing which is causing us to have a really skewed meta atm where only a handful of builds are being played. What's next?Oh no Mordrem Snipers have this really painful line AoE, Anet please remove it cos it hurts so so so much! My problem isn't only that its strong.My problem is that, in my opinion, builds like burn guard are unhealthy for the game - when they are as dominant as burn guard is.I'd rather have less build diversity, in a (Pvp) game which is actually fun, than 20 "viable" builds like burn guard, flamethrower, decap scrapper and other uninteractive cheese.

I'll never understand why people are defending builds like this.Well i guess only the top 5% games count, since i see burn guards even in plat.Let's just ignore that low effort builds with high reward (like burn guard) are dominating pretty much every game below that. Gee, i wonder why there aren't many new PvP-players...
