Well that's not really a statement to the balance of stealth but more of a statement to the health of gw2 pvp population and its quality of players, rather unfortunate. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nepster.4275 Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 Stealth as a mechanic isn't broken The broken part is how some classes are able to just spam it, thief can literally *stealth, backstab,stealth* you 24/7, and unless you play holo there is nothing you can do You either predict and dodge/block or you just need to accept you are dead Like yes, ofc, you can spam AoEs and CCs, but well, the opponent in stealth still has a huge advantage over you with what you can hardly do anything I think they should just put a 5s reveal when you break stealth as a baseline stealth mechanic that cannot be removed, most of the classes that are able to spam stealth, like mes and thief still has enough defense outside of stealth, and other classes like holo and druid have their defense in their traits/kits Thief still could kite that 5s away, but it would atleast prevent people from abusing it without knowing anything about the class itself 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
