  1. Specially mmoRpg GW2 tried to remove roles, and failed.. The game is still successful, but classes it is and has ever been, in my opinion, the weakest aspect of the game. Rangers barely shoot, "Wizards" don't cast spells (there's not even magic damage, just raw damage and damage over time). If you show the game to any outsiders, they will never know. The majority of classes and builds just explode in PBAoE flashes of different colors and that's it.
  2. Some seems to be confused about my previous comment.. so let me explain a bit further now that I have the numbers. In Argentina the expansion costs around 12usd on Steam. Not that I care THAT much for an extra 18usd, but if you look up a bit the economic situation in Arg is quite bad (inflation, devaluation and on top a block to exchange to other currencies). Only going to be worst. Having our hobbies on a regionalized price makes life much easier and also allow us to spend more on other things like gems which is an extremely rare thing to buy for me (and many others on the same boat on many different countries). As it feels for me, it's like I'm being punished, kept hostile on their store just for being loyal. Or I have to pay the price of starting all over and loosing my game record (im a completitionist, its never going to happen).
  3. For me this is a complete deal breaker with ANet. I was waiting for years for this opportunity to finally have the game and gems and everything on a regionalized price-. I'm not going to start over with an account having 9 characters and 3 of them celebrating 10 years in september. So long and thanks for all the fish
  4. Yes it does matter. It is the very nature of this discussion. It is part of the balance team's job to make options close to each other, thus, balanced. In terms of classes against each other, specs against each other, traits against each other, everything should be trying to achieve certain level of parity. If not, then its not properly balanced. Period. It doesn't matter which game, its always like this. We judge the balance team by how close are options against each other. The further away one build is from the other, the worst the balance is. If one class depends on one trait or else is evidently worst, then the class needs work because it is not balanced. Of course, we are talking about options that makes sense, you won't expect condi trait to work good with healing skills. We are not retards (but for some reason I think I needed to clarify this...)
  5. Then they are not fundamental. They are optional. Why do you get so confused by this? Its not that hard
  6. By definition, if you can opt out then its not fundamental.
  7. Lol, again the same pattern: "I like bladesworn, because i always hated warrior". While warrior mains mostly hates bladesworn. Its far from what warriors are supposed to offer. Cool ideas =/= playable ideas. BS idea was to be a one shot kind of character. In reality it ended up being a mix of things who screams a lot to heal himself. One judge from here the dev team skills to create especs. Id love this to be true but in general they keep nerfing core and old specs just to buff the new sellable ones. 101 marketting that is fooling noone. Lets hope they correct and remediate this attitude after the latest fiasco.
  8. You really can't. I mean, don't get me wrong, you can always increase damage and what not to make it more viable; but technically speaking from a professional point of view, you can't. Warrior has a fundamental design flaw: All weapons rely on burst from design to be balanced and ANET keeps deciding to remove burst with every e-spec. It is less noticeable when burst is replaced within the same weapon like Berserker, but Spb needs to have every weapon balanced around each other and then contemplate counter as another weapon attack. BS is one hot mess because they remove burst completely, thus, all weapons are by definition weaker than core warrior and that will never change. Until they don't set their minds on how to resolve this design flaw. The weapons wont be properly balanced.
  9. Let us know when you get a clue... currently you got us here wondering the same thing.
  10. What weaponry... the pen is mightier than the sword and we are about to get THE PHILOSOPHY. Get ready to smash brains not skulls in a Socrates way.
  11. Game became so cheap it seems the best they can do, and we so hungry for a bone that most will take it... such a shame.
  12. to be honest, banners is the least of my concerns... we shouldn't be even discussing banners having no support spec. Its everything else about warrior that makes it obsolete in the current scenario and have us talking about standing banners. 4 skills are not going to fix a class.. we are in such a pathetic state that we actually depend on this 4 vanilla skills. Hope they realize how low the standards are.
  13. because they have no balance (im sorry, ill find my way out)
  14. Why not give dps specs very good dps and keep support for the time they actually decides to make a support spec? This chimera they built with quickness, might, heal but nothing working well with each other is terrible. Very rookie gsme design and it shows a desperate attempt to comply with an angry audience.
  15. Same, been away since eod beta2. Forums are just better toilet reading than ig
  16. You got it wrong... (I don't think lore have to be mixed up with balance BUT following your line of thought): Lorewise, no class in the game should EVER beat a warrior in melee combat, never. Because that is, lorewise, what warriors do better than anyone. They are the master of weapons after all. To be honest, this line of thought is so stupid is like kids fighting which xmen is stronger.
  17. on today's job posting: "Looking for philosophers to join dev/balance team" (I actually think they'd do a better job)
  18. They have to start one yet... so far they only pursuit the perfect unbalance. Homogenous, yes. Balanced? Not in the slightless. Nobody wants classes to do the same. People want classes to have the same impact level, but each one with its own identity and place. Whatever OP was asking is ridiculous. Is a made up statement turned into a biased poll just to force people into his opinion which is fundamentally wrong.
  19. Precisely. This patch is not a bad move or an oopsie... this is a pattern. Players who have been here long enough know it so well its even predictable.
  20. do not despair fellow warriors.. soon we will get The Philosophy and everything will be ok. Because that was the issue... the missing Philosophy
  21. stupid question... for many if not all unbalance != fun aim for both if you're a professional and have any sort of standard
