Kuya.6495 Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 (edited) I see two willbenders per team now every match! This build is impossible to counter. It does massive damage by porting to you in the blink of an eye! And then when you try to pressure them, they spam blocks, aegis, blinds, condi cleanses, mobility, resolution, resistance and pretty much every defensive boon in the game! Why did it ever occur to you to give a specialization with so much damage, so many defensive boons that make it impossible to to kill? It's like fighting core guard and dragonhunter at once! Every button a willbender presses heals them! And gives allies boons! Everything they do gives boons! My suggestions for addressing the crime against humanity that is willbender is to: 1. Double the cooldown on virtues. 2. Remove the blocks 3. Remove the aegis and stability on f3 3. Remove the condi cleanse on f2 4. Remove blind on f1 4. Remove the stunbreaks on f3 5. Reduce the range on its mobility skills 6. Reduce sword 4 damage 7. Reduce sword 5 immob to 1 sec 8. Make righteous instincts only give 25% critical chance 9. Lower damage on gs 2 10. Raise cooldown on gs5 11. Make whirling light only hit in a cone 12. Remove the passive healing from its utilities. 13. increase cooldown on renewed focus (the guardian mains will appreciate having to choose a different elite utility) Hopefully with just half of my suggestions willbender will finally be balanced, like firebrand.

Please lets not let this thread be too trolly.... REAL suggestions please. Because THIS is a real problem. Just like alot of people already called it. Willbender is Guardian... and Guardian has a tendency to dodge bullets when it comes to Nerfs. I have seen numerous posts like: " Willbender is not getting a nerf, because it is Guardian and most people play Guardian. They will not nerf it till the last person has bought EoD. - your heard it here first" And i was laughing at it, because i thought it is pretty obvious that Willbender is to strong in spvp right now and will receive a nerf. You see 2 of them per team in almost every game.... WHY ARE THERE NO WILLBENDER NERFS!? All they have to do is raise the Cooldowns a tiny bit. Somewhere between pre-buff and what we have now.... BUT NOOO!!! WILLBENDER IS FINE! LETS NERF DRAGONHUNTER, SO THAT EVEN THE LAST REMAINING GUARDIANPLAYER WILL PLAY WILLYBENDER. why on earth are you nerfing other Guardianbuilds that are A-S Tier when you have another Guardianbuild that is S+-tier? OH RIIIGHT!!! Because people need to paying 30 bucks for it and you guys really want the money. got it. its just sad.

If enough players buy it, we put effort (actual effort, not random changes cause we have no clue what is going on in our game) into balancing competitive modes! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master Ketsu.4569 Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Poe's law. This really is the problem with balance forums right now. Nothing is seriously breaking the game, except maybe now double harb since the main counterpick has been nerfed. And the things that are overperforming are only overperforming by a slight amount. Wanting this number of nerfs for WB would be unreal if I didn't suspect this is a troll thread. 5 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somewhere between what we had before the buffs and now. Its soo easy, yet they refuse to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orthonen.9470 Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 I bet I could still kill you even without using willbender. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medivh.4725 Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Only for PVP? IDK how the WB can leap so far with heavy armor. My WB bascially just flying around and quite irritating as she is constantly out of hit box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hashberry.4510 Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Lets see, there are so few PVP players that Anet can’t justify spending time on that mode, but their diabolical plan is hit the jackpot by herding you all into EoD …. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supposedly the PVE is so popular, the game could drop pvp and wvw outright an be fine. Like they could just delete them and less than 1% would be affected. No one would notice. That's what I have been reading if you cross over into the PVE forums, and most pvp threads and wvw threads are not gaining much visible interaction. Could be just a rumor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, if it makes so little difference, I just wish they'd make more drastic changes more often. At least just to shake things up.
