Terek.8923 Posted August 22, 2023 Author Share Posted August 22, 2023 its worse for my roommate. Hes old and doesnt have good dexterity and so he used Golemancer runes on every single one of his builds. in fact he farmed dungeons the last couple months GETTING the runes for every toon and build tab and now hes screwed. he NEEDS that golem to tank agro for him. 15 4 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naxos.2503 Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 That was unfortunate, but predictible, people raised that issue when Relics were first revealed. It was bound to essentially destroy many a build. And because I doubt Relics are easy to get, everyone is now stuck in build reset hell.

Lyralia.2945 Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 Lazy crunch expansion. Needed time in the oven. Now it has to be hooked up to an incubator and we have to hope it manages to make it long term. 14 4 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blood Red Arachnid.2493 Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 As far as I can tell, for PVE there's really only 3 relic choices to go with: Thief for Strike damage, Mirage for Condi damage, Monk for support. The Survival relics have some good stuff for WvW/PvP, though. 2 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naxos.2503 Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 (edited) After checking, it's quite bad. A lot of effects are not covered by relics at all currently, to wit : Condis : Bleeding, Fire, Confusion Skill type : Glyphs Skill recharge : Many weapons have skills that recharge under 20 seconds from skill 1 to 5, rendering some weapons unuseable for Rune of Fireworks. Funny enough, most skills that Do go over 20 seconds are condi based, where Fireworks is Power based. Summons : -NONE-. Power : Heavily skewed toward Burst, many Hybrid such as Rune of infiltration are not possible Stat transferance (ex : 7% of power to expertise) : -NONE-. I can prolly add to the list as I sift through my chars but holy hell is this devastating. Thus far, half of my chars rune choices are completely invalidated, requiring a complete new set of runes. Along with that, a couple are downright unuseable due to the rune's effect not being replaced by relics.

Mell.4873 Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 (edited) I mean this does look intentional. The minion spawning runes were a prime reason afk builds were so prolific. We shall see they might come back but I doubt it. We have had a lot of power creep recently, so the old minion rune sets are not really required.

I think that's the one that gives a damage bonus after using a weapon skill with a greater than 20 second recharge. For most professions, that is... 1 weapon skill. It isn't active nearly enough to warrant its usage. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leo.8756 Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 This is what Guild Wars does ruin their games From GW1 to GW2 they removed Heroes which were fun and amazing to have, duo classes, and open skills to make endless builds which was what made GW1 a LEGENDARY! MMO and removed the lockpicking system so they can cash in on these lion chest keys, shameful... now they ruined my fun and amazing PvE MechGolemancer build so it's useless to play it. back to my Necro or Ranger kitten... ANET get your crap together and develop for the players, not for your EGO or GREED... 2 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Set a few people on fire because it will increase the enjoyment for the rest of the players? This "needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few" rhetoric needs to die in 2023.

Trying to equate balance changes to setting people on fire only shows you don't have much to say here. No bonus points for hopelessly overblown comparisons. If OP -or whoever- needs a pet to tank for them, roll a pet class. Fire extinguished? Edited August 24, 2023 by Sobx.1758 "on" 6 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's called hyperbole via analogy and has been a valid argumentation tactic for over a thousand years. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your literal interpretation of my words to dismiss its validity is sophomoric. No no, you're right. This is serious. We should get authorities involved, it's not cool for game companies to light their players on fire for others' enjoyment. 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
