Splits for game modes exists for reasons.

BoT could pulse stability and provide bulk resistance up front while keeping the current functionality for PvP/WvW. Another option within Tactics (the traitline this time) would be to decouple Martial Cadence from the Marching Orders CD. Let MC give 1 stack of stability for 3s for each tier of burst used in PvE.

Rifle with a bunch of condition duration or expertise is surprisingly fun in WvW. Hang out in the back of a small scale fight, load up a target with 25 vulnerability and immobilize, and then watch them drop.

So having 1 great core trait line and 1 almost 100% mandatory one solely for utility with the other three core traitlines sitting in the trash heap means we shouldn't be asking for those three core traitlines to get looked at? Cool. @Azure The Heartless.3261 Go full namaste on them.

Hey, it could have been the sonar pings warrior had on staff during the beta. I pleaded for the sake of the beached baby quaggans' sake to remove that noise and they did.

You nitpicked over a small detail; I proposed a way around that specific issue. You then move goal posts in the below quote \/ /\ Said goal posts. We'll leave that there and not address it further. If you spend time looking through the long arc of my post history, you will find said contributions. I do not have to regurgitate a long list of my potential fixes every time support changes are discussed, especially about a very targeted application of one aspect of the whole. We can discuss individual aspects of what will cement a great support role for warrior in isolation of other fixes. There is a greater likelihood that one or more of those fixes discussed in isolation gets ported to the live game than some 15-20 or longer bulleted list of changes with 5 forum pages of discussion on each bullet supporting why those changes are needed. You are of course free to disagree on that, but I've seen some targeted discussions, both buffs and nerfs, make it into the live game, and I've seen long bulleted lists with dozens of pages of commentary left to rot, so I've seen this process play out before in real time and I know which tack I'm going to take.

Put Alacrity on Magebane Tether then. Let it pulse 2s of alacrity every second. After boon duration inflates the duration, you will end up with enough alacrity that you have breathing room to reapply the alacrity if you whiff or have to do mechanics.

Alright, Full Metal. Still, baseline FH in exchange for less health would be a big nerf overall. I would give up all of BSW though for baseline FH, but I think we'd all give up BSW for anything that benefits the rest of warrior.

Having had to trade 300 toughness for 300 power and condition damage in the past... hard pass.

Yep. It's the same reason they are skimpy on giving necro too many blocks, evades, or stab. They value HP and damage reduction too heavily.

I agree I don't agree. Instead I would trade our HP pool for the medium health pool in exchange for every MH and 2H weapon having either an evade or a block (a full block, not a missile only block) on their weapon bar. For example Sword: Savage Slash gains a 1/2s evade Cyclone Axe gains a 1/2s evade Earth Shaker gains a 1/2s evade Aura Slicer gains a 1/2s evade We traded away more active defenses for our high HP pool, a 5s baseline weapon swap is not an equal trade imho.

NP.

I think it has more to do with WvW/PvP only players not wanting to do World Completion as it is very boring for them and PvE players not wanting to go into WvW because their feelings get hurt they find it boring there.

Do you trust the pug? If you know someone in that pug is rolling a good support build, then sure use a build and equipment template to swap to an Arms variant and a glassier armor set.

Takes about 4 hours for GoB, map completion world record is about 6.5 hours, but normal playing is between 12 and 16 hours for two GoE.

If you are doing roaming? Nah, go Defense.

Full set. Def:bot/mid/mid or bot/top/mid or bot/top/top Disc:mid/bot/bot Berz: bot/bot/bot Defiant stance, EP, SiO, outrage or balanced stance, headbutt. Take your pick and play around. If you time things well you can zerg surf pretty easily.

Cele or trailblazer would be better for roaming.

Revenge Counter turns FC into a daze instead of a stun, but deals 2.0 scaling in PvP/WvW. Trade all of Bladesworn for a proper support spec instead with dual pistols.

Staff Mace/Horn Spellbreaker with full shouts and VS. Namaste 🙏

Can we add Gift of Exploration tracks to PvP and WvW as well? Can we add Gift of Maguuma, Gift of the Desert, and Gift of Cantha tracks as well?

I'd like to just point out that Bladesworn is kept afloat due to massive self sustain. That self sustain can allow it to get the better of some players/builds. Without that self sustain it crumples easily.

Well, Anet gave warrior a support weapon without properly bolstering it's support traits, so inflated healing numbers are their square peg for the round hole.

It can be dog 💩 because of its horrible mechanics and design flaws and still be capable of winning a fight. Those two things are mutually exclusive.

They don't have to have it there, splits exist for a reason. Alacrity on Spellbreaker is more of a PvE discussion.
