What if the second skill hit 8 times for a 1/4s daze each hit on a 6s CD and the last skill did a series of 10 small knockbacks on a 15s CD? Body Blow would finally become useful! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadowpeixera.2918 Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 How Warriors want Staff: Land Spear. How Anet wants Staff: Maybe a scythe or some sort of quarterstaff for combat. What the weapon will actually be: A piece of wood that we will use to beat people to death before the cops arrive. That's all i expect from Anet. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scalacious.4139 Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 A staff could easily turned into a spear with a few new animations and some staffs allready look like spears/polearms. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lan Deathrider.5910 Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 This would require holding the staff in a forward stance and not the hammer stance that we know they would stick warrior with. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadowpeixera.2918 Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 I'm telling y'all: They'll give us hammer-animated staff, and we'll get Guardian's hammer leap on the staff. Calling: We'll be jumping into people with a piece of wood and beating their faces off. And they'll call it "Spear". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prototypedragon.1406 Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 I wouldn't put it past anet with their cheapness giving us a piece of wood. we all know we are getting a toothpick or a splinter if we are lucky. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prototypedragon.1406 Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Knowing our luck we shall just get the salt shaker passed back to us for anet's popcorn. It's truly sad the state warrior has fallen into over the past 10 years. When I first started guildwars2 Warrior felt like a warrior. I felt like what I did on the battlefield truly mattered now no matter what build i go to test in world versus world why I should I bother? The moment I can make something that is useful it shall be kittenized in the next hour. Everything is boon or get out or bring the zerg. There is no challenge anymore not due to the skills of players but what our esteemed overlords deem "Funzies". After commanding in world versus world for 10 years doing the same circles day after day it makes one truly wonder about this corner stone game mode our overlords so gracefully preach about. The only reason I even stick around is due to the guild that I helped to build if not for that I would of hung up my tag and retired my warrior years ago. I like you all are sick of it. Like even with arrow carts what do they even do? Back in the old days they could destroy people even entire zergs if coordinated correctly. Arrow cart farm's were one of my highlights of world versus world if the people were too stupid to run in , then that's on them not the siege. Otherwise scrap the siege give us new weapons heck I say if this so called balance team doesn't bring the cornerstone promised land I say we get the gemstore team a try they could perhaps achieve something as well. If not then have all the teams try because honestly the clocks a ticking. If wvw continues to get squandered get everyone that cares about world versus world and flood the maps with free accounts and upscale every world boss and not fight it so they fail so anet may learn to balance priorities instead of one eyed focusing them. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I am in total agreeance with you regarding this. But the entire fact they took the primal out of the caveman's weapons and instead gave them a balloon and a chunk of a pole noodle no caveman going to be chomping on some food from a successful hunt with these tools. In the older days of guild Wars2 prior to the 2020 cursed patch without a doubt the mace/shield and Hammer could be a evil combo wombo and make one feel like the cavest of cavemen. Sure we got a little bit back since then, but all we got were the first section of the hafts of our once reliable weapons. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still think Dolyak's signet is great for Hammer use, and maybe there's a quasi-signet build that would allow us to unblockable our CC. Warrior is struggling for sure, always is, but maybe we didn't think forward enough. Also our utility dependency on SIO kinda hurts us ( and the fact that Hammer is dependant on 2 traitlines to do damage, so we have to sacrifice one to get sustain, while also having to roll Arms to get signet mastery. It's complicated for sure. ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prototypedragon.1406 Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 Yeah.... Idk anet is in the mind set that 2 handed hammers shouldn't actually impact anything. Even with the limited boon removal warrior has they won't let us eat away at their perma stability that is hiding behind all the boons in the book playing whackamole If you even get close to even landing a premeditated and highly telegraphed hammer swing it's going to gently slice off swiftness or fury before it actually can remove a boon worth a kitten🤣🤔 that is kittenness in grade A dev style. Meanwhile warrior being a " Frontline" barely can keep itself from tripping face first into the dirt to even get a hammer swing in even with the quickness/ cc 1 stab per smackaroon. If something does happen to connect most players be sitting on 2 to 4 stacks of stability so it's pointless to still waste time using the weapon that anet broke and neglected in the first place. Which honestly it is a complete disappointment because Hammer use to be worth something instead of the useless kitten pile anet shoved it into. I can imagine they might just tweak some numbers for the next wvw patch and say everything is in working order. Balanced as all things should be with the here's the next gemstore item that had more consideration then a single weapon skill or the entire weapon skill bar , that actually affects gameplay. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prototypedragon.1406 Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 The funniest thing about this is that anet is 2 kitten scared due to what us as warriors could do versus what they should have us do, which involves what we could do so they are slamming cones on our heads so we can't scratch our own backs after they knitted us poison ivy sweaters 🤣🤣🤣🤣 honestly warrior should be able to kick a door in not have it slammed in its face and landing them on their kitten. We are warriors not some starved skritts yearning for shiny and kittening themselves for a single piece of shiny. We want the glory, the enjoyment of battle being a terror on The front lines. Anymore warrior only gets laughed at and our overlords are sipping in all the enjoyment of it because they wouldn't let anyone catch them kitten actually playing a warrior outside of actually streaming content. Aside from the pvp golem lobby or pve. The cornerstone game mode is a no go for them it's too "scarrrry " for the devs to even conjure the idea of playing a warrior of any sorts in world versus world. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prototypedragon.1406 Posted November 24, 2022 Share Posted November 24, 2022 It's kinda sad now that it seems their is more enjoyment about throwing facts in the devs faces about their messups with a class rather than finding enjoyment in playing that class that at one time was enjoyable and introduced one to the world of tyria. I get there is a no fix all solution and balance itself is a nightmare no doubt. But when it comes to weapons one would figure that would be the easiest part towards balancing their usefulness. So no weapon completely outshines the other and performs better in different scenarios for every single class and espec. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mungrul.9358 Posted November 24, 2022 Share Posted November 24, 2022 Even though it's not top tier (or anywhere near), Warrior still feels better to play than any other profession to me. Now if only the results would equal the stonking feedback loop of great animation and sound effects... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mara.6782 Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 Warrior need support elite spec. Every other classes have some kind support spec but warrior is pure power mostly. They could bring old Wammo back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
