gmmg.9210 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Let's trade Throw Bolas for Scorpion Wire with the Thieves. I'm sure they'd prefer Bolas anyways since it would be better for pistol and rifle:D Meanwhile Scorpion Wire could be used with offhand pistol on warrior to make an ability super similar to Roadhog from OW. Pull target and point blank shot, seems like it would work so well and be super fun. Even other specs could use it as a set up for cc, and an alternate route if you don't want to use Bull's Charge. 7 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kodama.6453 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 For a class as heavily melee focused as warrior, it really lacks tools to force enemies into melee. I would expect this class to have more pulls and taunts. Chances of "trading" skills across classes is basically 0, but it would be really great to see a future elite spec utilizing these types of CC more. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eXruina.4956 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 (edited) @gmmg.9210 yes! yes it should! 💪 put it on offhand sword, or throw bolas. 🥺✨ Edited January 13 by eXruina.4956 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Marshal.4098 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 They will increase Taunt duration on Imminent threat by 1/2 second, enjoy gaming warriors. 🤡 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artharon.9276 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 (edited) I was ready to write a spellbreaker rework here, but I agree with what Grand Marshal.4098 said. They'll just tweak some numbers and call it a day. As much I hate how zenimax online monetizes their game but at least they are not too shy or lazy to do drastic changes to their combat from numbers to animations and functions. They only changed their dragonknight's pull 4 times in 5 years. added functions like "failed to pull, then pulls yourself to the target" kind of things. While this old topic is around since 2012 and nothing happened. I'll give them some credit. Edited January 15 by artharon.9276 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay how about we just slightly make the cast time for throw bolas better and you give us scorpion with 3 ammo? 😄 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGrimm.5624 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Could see War getting a pull utility that is in the base class and available for all core and elites. Bolas getting a reworked is not that crazy of an idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalmTheStorm.2364 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 What I wouldn't give for Bladetrail to be a pull... Esp if they don't unroot hundred blades, they could at least give GS a way to set it up. YOINK-ing people into an arcing slice would be awesome too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Throw Bolas gaining a flipover to pull, and Bladetrail pulling on the return path all need to happen. I'd even put a pull on Throw Axe and Rip. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd even put a pull on Throw Axe and Rip. Throw Bolas is an ammo skill though (as is Throw Axe) which makes it unlikely to get a pull unlike Bladetrail or Rip. Of all those Rip needs the most help but if you put a pull on it most likely it would lose all damage. Edited January 24 by Infusion.7149 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, they can remove the ammo on it and give it a pull flipover. Would immediately become more useful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't disagree, but scorpion wire has 2 charges, so I guess it's possible 🤷♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yasai.3549 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Well it does make more sense for a Thief who wants to kite enemies to throw Bolas to trip them up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most warrior specs/builds struggle with being kited, and being able to yank the enemy back to you would be huge. The immob would be nice too, but if you immob somebody at anything over short range, you have to combo with a movement skill to close the distance before the immob wears off and the opportunity slips away. A pull, on the other hand, would be sufficient in itself. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lan Deathrider.5910 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Yeah, I'd give up an immob that never gets used by anyone ever for a pull that we would all use forever. The flip over idea stemmed from an old conversation on how to do it on warrior, you know because Anet will Anet it and make warrior go through hops to do it. Swap Throw Bolas for Lasso. Lasso: Throw out a lasso and pull your foe to you. Pulled Foes lose 2 boons. Range 1200. Pull 1200. Same damage scaling. No ammo, 20s CD. I added the boon removal for why not reasons and from removing the ammo. If we had a pull on an ammo system people would complain. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giving War some boon rip is interesting and would address two issues in one. With the extended range and boon removal may need a bit bigger cooldown, maybe more like 35. The adjustment would make me go back to my War toons and question what's on the utilities, even the group support one. Without the boon removal and 900 range could see it stay at an ammo count skill with the 20 sec ammo reload. But yeah would be curious on their numbers on how often bolas does get slotted today. Edit: don't get me wrong the 1200 would be awesome. Edited January 24 by TheGrimm.5624 Side-note 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infusion.7149 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 If it's a boon rip it should be a targeted boon rip, for protection or maybe stability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
