Azure The Heartless.3261 Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 Its amazing how quickly people come to the same conclusions after just attempting to use the class for two seconds. Really puts into perspective some of the crazy takes we see on the forums and how lopsided your class experience has to be to make them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FShoppe.6572 Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 1. Magebane Tether: Alac pulses around you & your target for PvE. 240 radius. & Resilience for WvW/Might for PvP. -- 1s pulse icd but 3/4s Alac boons duration so you have to somewhat invest in +%boon duration gear (as Supports should.) 3/4s for Resiliance, 5s might but 2 stacks per pulse. 2. Old Daring Dragon back on Bladesworn w/ possibly nerfed / buffed cost's numbers -- if it wasn't where the devs wanted it. Hell, add a slash cap if that was the issue. 3. Remove the delay on DT2. Allow Dragon Slashes to be affected by quickness (I have no idea why they're not.) Boom, Done. Classes balanced with coding that already exists. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eekasqueak.7850 Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 Bladesworn for alac was such a weird choice, they could have reworked a lot of spellbreaker's useless utilities while also giving it alac. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firedragon.8953 Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 (edited) It doesn't take a genius to see it. So, honestly, don't know what's going on at the Studio... Also, I like that he points out the weapon is great, but the warrior itself is pretty, meh. Hmmmmmmmmm.....!!! Only way bladesworn would even be possible is if a trait like River's Flow boosts healing to self AND allies, Lush Forest gives alac when charging ammo gunsaber charges, and Immortal Dragon causes gunsaber explosions to provide regen and dragon slash heals you AND allies for a percent of damage. [Also, because of alac change, bring back the original daring dragon (with tweaked numbers if necessary). Even with all those changes, thematically Spellbreaker would be better and likely be smoother, especially with changes to meditations.

Jzaku.9765 Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 Yeah he's spot on when he says that Staff is an amazing weapon brought down by Warrior lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone is theorizing that there isn't a single warrior player on the balance/dev team.

Yaki.9563 Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 They massively overtuned Staff to single handedly try and carry Warrior's pathetic support traits and mechanics. And it still doesn't work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warrior is just a pile of DPS mechanics. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember when they put the 5% Crit Chance in Arms because the dude making the change had no idea about Warrior and read the Flavor text for the Arms Traitline and thought "YEP CRIT LINE" (when they removed spotter and banner stats) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because it'd have been "too good", if power builds (which most of Warrior has been designed for) got access to it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must have been the same reason that Arc Divider got neutered, I’m to this day sure that someone on the balance team ate a Divider too many and just decided that power berserkers can’t have fun. Azure seems apologetic every time I mention it so the culprit on that front seems pretty clear. Its probably the same reason for why they “don’t have a clear vision” for it in PvP yet. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Fey.1035 Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 It's silly that we're still fighting Soldier's Focus despite it being specifically and repeatedly pointed out as an issue and ANet themselves noting in the 2023-11-28 balance patch that traits that mechanically operate like that are counterintuitive, reduce gameplay "feel", and hold the profession back 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am only partially apologetic. It was just Tuesday for me. I could not have seen this coming. Perhaps I should not have put my back into it, but I also swear the first thing I'll do if they ever free me is get my "conquer the creator" achieve. I am, however, not above constantly pointing out that there is a track record of Arenanet specifically not wanting power berserker to play the game, though, even though we both know what will happen if they ever decide to let me back in. See? See there? *points at rampart splitter* On purpose. Because when a dev goes to bed I am one of their nightmares.
