Potentially busted things in new patch:
Poledra Val.1490 replied to agrippastrilemma.8741's topic in Player vs. Player
Oh just wait until you come up against the almost immortal Bladesworns tomorrow post patch. -
They will get nerfed but if sustain isint nerfed (im looking at you bunker vindicator) you all will be desperate for the damage to return in the right way. Nobody in there right mind would want a bunker pvp meta, its insanely boring and will put off what little players pvp has at the moment. Nobody wants 15 min matches in pvp.

Will you clap your little hands and celebrate?
Poledra Val.1490 replied to Crab Fear.8623's topic in Player vs. Player
Its funny hearing how people want to nerf Harbinger and Willbender to "oblivion" thats not what its about its about balance. Saying that if they do nerf both Harbinger and Willbender heavily and leave Vindicator untouched, most of you will beg for the damage to return rather then having 15 min plus bunker meta matches. -
I think its safe to say that Harb is stronger then Willbender is at the moment as Harb can fulfill more roles in a pvp roster then Willbender can but that is just my personal opinion nobody has to agree with me, they both need balancing out. Anyway well see what happens in two weeks.
-
What? Im not sure you are aware but my class is Guardian, Willbender definitely needs some nerfs/balancing out, im objective.
-
I dont think nerfing a spec to oblivion is healthy for pvp like many people have said. Saying that though I find Harbinger to the be the biggest culprit in blocking/gatekeeping other specs coming into the meta, just from the sheer fact its broken and overtuned to extreme levels. I find Willbender is not as broken as people first feared it needs some slight nerfs but its nowhere near as overwhelming as Harbinger is atm as harb can fill multiple roles in a pvp comp, whether it be ranked or in competitive. I also feel Vindicator bunker variant especially is almost unkillable in a 1v1 situation and can tank for eternity even if overwhelmed, that 100% should be adressed as well in this balance patch. You dont want 2-3 specs dominating the entire pvp meta, unfortunately that is what is happening currently. Well see what Anet has up its sleeve in a couple of weeks.
-
Whilst I absolutely agree Harbinger needs the heaviest nerf/balance right now and Willbender to a lesser extent needs some nerfs to.... I think a lot of people underistimate how Spectre will be an immortal monster (if Spectre is untouched balance wise) once Harb and Willbender are nerfed since they somewhat keep Spectres in check at the moment. In addition to bunker Vindicator which is also very tough to down currently, probably the best side noder in pvp.
-
Yeah its not just autoattack of course but the whole spec as a whole is so incredibly overtuned it feels like a one man nuclear bomb going off.
-
Im not sure why some people in pvp are even kidding themselves, Harbinger has to be the most broken spec i have seen in pvp in recent memory. It needs immense tuning down in almost every way. You almost always realize a spec is broken when the spec is carrying the player rather then the other way around in addition to how many roles it can fulfill in a pvp match. I truly hope Anet does the right thing this month with the balance patch because pvp at the moment is in such a horrid state. Of course its not the only spec that needs tuning down but it should be number 1 on the list at the moment followed by some obvious other specs, Willbender, bunker Vindi etc You legit see only 2-4 classes being played in ranked almost always these days and harbinger itself i guarentee you is in almost every AT and has a big headcount. Diversity at least with the classes we play is so very imporant because currently pvp has received zero content from Arenanet and im sure the entire pvp community is actually disappointed by that fact alone.

Harbinger survivability problem and solution
Poledra Val.1490 replied to Copyright.9082's topic in Player vs. Player
I couldent agree more clearly Harbinger needs more buffing...love the sarcasm from the OP hehe In all seriousness anyone who tells me willbender is the most broken spec in gw2 pvp atm needs to play the meta harbinger build. It is more bunkier/sustain then any singular heavy class in pvp whilst puking out rediculous amounts of dmg/condie. Oh lets not forget that it has every boon at its disposal with pulsing prot and practically infinite quickness. Did i forget to mention how its mobility is way over the top to:) Either way this spec needs way more nerfing then any other spec currently in pvp and im sure Anet is aware of this. -
"Mobility Creep" but for everybody
Poledra Val.1490 replied to Swagg.9236's topic in Player vs. Player
Now that Necro (Harbinger) has crazy mobility all semblence of logic goes out the window for me. -
Im sorry but when a light armor class can face tank obscene amount of damage and dish out dps+condies+mass boons party wide and CC (which has no tell) then yeah the spec is broken in my opinion. Oh did i forget to mention the practicaly infinite amount of quickness?:) I am referring to Harbinger. Yes Willy needs nerfs to.
-
Its incredible to me people still think willbender is the most busted spec in pvp, it needs nerfs i grant you that but Harbinger is without a doubt the most busted spec in pvp at the moment no question. I am glad Anet ignores a lot of these suggestions for willbender nerfs since the majority of people want it butchered to the ground.
-
Yes it is broken and its probably just fractionally more broken then Willbender is at the moment. Both are in need of nerfs clearly but in truth people also need to realize how bunker Vindi is also broken and that to needs some balancing. Im sure a lot of people saw the tourney yesterday, when you have a situation when top players both afk on a node all game because there match up is a stalemate it should trigger alarm bells that is super unhealth for pvp. Nobody wants to see constant slow or 15 min matches with a bunker meta developing.

Roll back Feb 2020 to save pvp.
Poledra Val.1490 replied to Gundam Style.8495's topic in Player vs. Player
The only way for pvp to have any sort of attraction to a player is to create content for it. I dont even remember the last time Anet released content specifically that has to do with PvP, its literally been years. Im not including pvp legendary armor or trinket in this because that only caused a minor interest. Here is the bottom line, no new content no incentive to play pvp, its that simple. Hell they dont even bother making new titles or even rotate the old ones in and out every other season. Something that simple and its not happening. Just something, anything to help grow the population. PvP specific Balance updates should be a given and should not be counted as new content. -
Harbinger is more braindead than WB..
Poledra Val.1490 replied to Crozame.4098's topic in Player vs. Player
Anybody who thinks Harbinger is "fine" is rather deluded. No class with light armor first of all should be able to tank that much damage, regardless of the trait lines being picked. I wont even bother with what it can do offensively because its its pretty self explanatory but suffice it to say both Willbender and Harbinger need nerfs with Harbinger being just a little less broken then Willbender. -
This is why I am glad Anet have a tendency to ignore any advice from players in the pvp forums because typically its extremelly biased one way or the other. Saying that i dont understand the nerfs to Core Engie and the buffs to Vindicator dmg but the good thing is they nerfed its sustain somewhat.

People have really short memories when Herald was released it was far more broken the WB is at the moment and it remained that way for an extremely long time. Fast forward to WB in beta it was just god awful in pvp they buffed it and now its S+ tier, so within 6 weeks people want it nerfed. I wont argue it needs some trimming but I hope Anet ignores any forum posters advice because the vast majority of them are either biased for there own classes or they are biased for Willbender, let them wittle down WB little by little as they usually do when there is a very strong class around. I think people also dont realize how incredibly strong Harbinger and Untamed is at the moment and is on par imo with Willbender and i dont see a lot of screeching from the rooftops for them to be nerfed currently.

how has willbender flown under the radar?
Poledra Val.1490 replied to nagreatereu.7865's topic in Player vs. Player
Its very likely because Drazeh was streaming the mAT and all the viewers can see was the Willbenders perspective. So they automatically think its OP people tend to forget that Drazeh is an exceptionally good player so in the hands of a good pvp player it looks great. WB is very strong but its nowhere near broken. If Boyce was the only one streaming Untamed then everyone would think Untamed has "flown under the radar" its all about perspective. -
Unfortunately considering how small the population is in pvp atm i can only see people manipulating a potential surrender function tool. Especially during night ques to boost rating for friends, match manipulation etc. Ranked is almost not policed by Anet so this would just create another means to circumvent the system. Would be great in theory if the population was thriving, as it is now though i just cant see it being implemented in any fashion.
