What's the point in SB in wvw?

[Napo.1230]

Seriously....

Meditations skills are trash

Revenge counter increases the damage from non to...non...

Boon removal gone

Boon removal damage.....hitting for 45/60 damage...the hell is that? 

Damage on CC gone

Full counter....now just used to take a free hit since it hits like a noodle

Sustain gutted to the point of it being a joke

It's 2023 and I'm still playing core warrior 2.0 with the same utilities and 2 out of 3 of the mandatory trait lines.

Give us utility (boon removal/revamp meditation skills) or damage (so many useless 0 dmg cc skills) or sustain because you currently have took them all.

Weapon "master" class out performed by almost every other class using the same weapons as us.

 

TL:DR don't buy the expansion because core warrior lives on.

FWIW you can use MBT and Lonbow F1 to yonk people.

Did you see the new Primal Dagger burst? 

Anet obviously wants us to play Zerker in Wvw.

Yeah spellbreaker is now a joke in wvw for boon strips, tried a fully dedicated boon strip build and wasn't near the top of the boon strips list when before the same build was typically towards the top (usually very competitive with other boon strips and could find itself top 3 often). The build is nothing but boon strips, it doesn't do a ton of damage because CCs do 5 damage... It's probably not even worth taking over other options anymore.

It was supposed to be a aoe boonstrip support spec for PvP and WvW. Something to keep Elementalists, Necromancers and other boon-dependant classes controled.

Then people realized that a melee bruiser can't even get to those without putting themselve in massive harm, and Anet realized they prefer GW2 to be players vomiting boons on each other without pause, so they've been nerfing boon corrupt/removal ever since.

Also not helped by the fact our weapons are pretty bad in general.
