Guy.9207 Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 The beta has showed us that Dagger will remove boons on enemies regardless of whether you have Spellbreaker equipped or not (especially Berserker which removes boons via Primal Burst), and looking back at it, thematically it makes no sense. Spellbreaker's main gimmick is boon-ripping even without dagger in their hands (like hammer and mace and other CC skills), but with SotO on the horizon, it really does make me wonder if Spellbreaker will simply lose its identity altogether, both in gameplay and design direction. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zekent.3652 Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 Its just 1 boonstrip skill like almost every single other class, and that doesn't means that spellbreaker is loosing its identity. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the nerfs in WvW are leading to Spellbreaker loosing its identity. Edited July 5, 2023 by Lan Deathrider.5910 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More rips, disenchantment as a mechanic spread throughout the traits, slightly more damage. It’s time for spellbreaker to vengeance! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also make health a boon so we can rip that too…? 10% health for every boon ripped that isn’t there, spell has now transcended into god-hood. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd have to be a guardian catalyst to be allowed such meme power. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kal Durak.2830 Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 I tried my Spellbreaker last night with 2hand hammer and -remove boon sigil with winds. I had 8 strips per fight. ..... While in the meantime three scourges have 25 strips each per fight average and they were nerfed..... Gimme a break. I miss my warrior "Lays him to rest next to my old Chrono Mes". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eXruina.4956 Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 after nerfing break enchantments to strip only 1 boon this recent patch, do you guys actually believe the boon strip for 2, 4, 6 on mh dagger will make it out of beta? and even if it did do you guys believe its there to stay? 😁 come on guys we been playing this game for a decade, we know whats up. 🙂 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Marshal.4098 Posted July 9, 2023 Share Posted July 9, 2023 Untamed is slept on, much better than Spellbreaker for a frontline melee boonrip class, with much more potent boon share and debilitating conditions. Also you can play Soulbeast with Axes now and easily compete with Berserker (Arc divider trash) in melee and guess what, you can entirely replace the berserker for the stanceshare of the SLB with the decent damage and ELITE SPIRIT for rezzing (aka Battle Standard). Ranger is the new Warrior now for melee. It was doing ok before, now after this patch its just superior. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotride.2187 Posted July 9, 2023 Share Posted July 9, 2023 Tbh with winds and sigil of absorption nerfs, what boonrip on spb are you talking about? Might as well make a topic "dude, wheres my boonrip?"... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It hurts knowing I actually went to recreate my Ranger into a Warrior. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
