Rather than gut the skill entirely, I think it would make more sense to do a softer nerf, or at the very least buff/rework Spellbreaker's skills and traits, or core Warrior to compensate. Maybe making it a stance skill, rather than a physical skill so it doesn't benefit from peak performance, as well as removing the benefits from HGH on Elixir X for Engies as they get it for not only longer, but also on shorter CD than warriors not running strength. If you take away this skill without giving back, you essentially make warrior worthless as anything but some gimmicky one-short zerker build, far easier to shut down than mesmers, soulbeasts, and revs of the same function. We rely far too heavily on this one skill as it is right now. We use it to close duels and chase down kills, rotating, disengage, and having any sort of teamfight presence. Strength Spellbreaker is considerably weaker than most side-noders outside of rampage, definitely not the best. If being able to 1v1 a scrapper is considered merit for being overpowered, then I'd assume scrapper is a more overpowered side-noder than Spellbreaker, for being the standard. Even then, ime; those 1-shot unblockable Soulbeats have a far easier time fighting scrappers than us Spellbreaker. Stability, blocks, CC and their blind field can pretty much nullify any Strengthbreaker burst. Love the explanation. But from experience you won't be able to convince people. All people remember is that they got bulls charged hundred blades and had no stun break cos they randomly pressed all their cool downs. Then they come on forums and cry warrior op. Lol usually players g2 and below do this.Flandre, well known g2 monthly winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both skills have gone under the radar for some unknown reason, even though most people agree both of them are the greatest offenders in the current powercreep.They've gone under the radar because they've been basically unchanged in terms of strength since the specialization update in 2015. Go look them up on the wiki if you don't believe me.Are you serious?Dagger Storm:Buffs have been quoted up there (the evade frame made it incredibly strong, one of the longest evades in the game while still doing ridiculous AoE damage with long range) Rampage:March 27, 2018: Reduced the cooldown from 180 seconds to 90 seconds in PvP and WvW.The cooldown was literally HALVED one year ago, when it became the obvious choice for every warrior. Any elite with a 180s is borderline useless, but with a 72s cd (traited) it's another story.Additionally to that, the most important related trait, Peak Performance was buffed twice in the last two years that made the synergies with other traits and the initial burst a lot more brutal (also a 20% cd reduction btw):July 10, 2018: Increased the duration of the damage-increase effect from 5 seconds to 6 seconds.November 07, 2017: This trait no longer increases the damage of physical skills, but instead increases the warrior's strike damage by 10% in PvP for 5 seconds whenever a physical skill is used.Also, even if the skills were highly unchanged as you implied (they weren't), it doesn't mean that certain new traits or specializations don't make it incredibly overpowered.Great example is Evasive Mirror. It was always a pretty bad trait, but with Mirage it became a kind of perma evade / reflect trait - that's why it was nerfed.(By under the radar I meant that Anet wasn't paying attention regardless of several top players calling nerfs on these skills) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure it's a counter to it but so are a lot of things. 3 minute cooldowns are core era design that honestly should be halved. 90 seconds on Moa seems reasonable to me.While Rampage is overtuned, slapping a 3-minute cooldown to it doesn't make the game better. It would just make Rampage useless. Balancing it would be to force it more counterplay opportunities. Like reducing the defenses it gives.

apharma.3741 Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 @"Flandre.2870" said:After mirage/chrono/soulbeast/fb/deadeye nerfs the most disgusting thing in the game currently must be rampage. In combination with the fact that both holo and warrior already have the best cc in the game (warrior literally specs 2 utilities into cc nowadays) the amount of value rampage provides is too much. Rampage is the easiest way to force decaps after forcing stunbreak from enemy and the kill potential is still insane (especially on str warr). Not to mention that holo can literlaly have 30 cds rampages with power wrench. Let's compare that to 3 min of FGS or lich form. It does not make sense anymore. Rampage gives extreme damage, extreme cc, great mobility and very long stability. For an elite with such low cd what even compares? Compare it to one wolf pack on slb which stanceshares for 3 seconds now. It's a joke. Warrior is universally the best sidenoder especially since it's the only thing that kills scrapper 1v1. (check last monthly finals trama almots winning 1v2) and holo is universally the best 5th in every teamcomp currently. Helio already made a point about gutting rampage. The game will be better without it.I agree that rampage in it's current form is performing too well within the current meta however you're not offering anything very constructive as usual. You identify a number of characteristics Rampage has ("Rampage gives extreme damage, extreme cc, great mobility and very long stability.") but you don't properly identify what the problem is specifically and where you would like to see changes to improve the game as a whole with regards to this skill.Now here's my opinion.I agree with "Rampage is the easiest way to force decaps after forcing stunbreak from enemy and the kill potential is still insane (especially on str warr). Rampage gives extreme damage, extreme cc, great mobility and very long stability." and this is very accurate while the latter statement explains the first.I do however think that Rampage being able to do this is fine, we need some skills to be very impactful like this where their correct use can easily swing a fight but with a downside where if used wrongly is very punishing. The punishing parts about rampage are if you have your stab corrupted or removed you're easily CC'd and kited while generally being vulnerable to condition damage and losing access to utilities.What I do think is out of line is the cool down, at 90s base for warrior (72s traited) it's a tad too low being able to use it every single fight sometimes twice and for engineers being able to use it 2-3 times if they get lucky per fight it is far too low.What I would suggest is putting rampage base CD to 150s (120s traited) and then get rid of the elite cool down reduction from toolkit instead replacing it with something else to do with kits like maybe a heal when entering a kit or something. Finally Elixir X cool down going back up to it's original 105s (94s traited) so that you only tend to use it with elixirs or a 1v1 side noder build where CC and moa would be more useful.All of this is under the assumption that we go in a direction of upping cool downs so that the game is less of a spamfiesta. I know many will be upset about their elites going up in cool down and not being the iWin button for every fight and will quickly point to another skill that also needs a cool down increase. To them I say sure we need increased cool downs to lots of stuff but the change needs to start somewhere and this is as good a place to start.

saerni.2584 Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 I feel like rampage needs to come with a downside when it ends. It’s fine to get lots of damage and cc on a cooldown as short as it is...if you suffer a vulnerability period after it is over.A cripple effect you can’t just remove. An increased vulnerability to damage. Exhaustion. Maybe reduce its duration if you make a kill while it is active.A warrior went after a DE in Arena the other day while I watched. He forced a couple of stun breaks and then rampaged. Stunlocked and dead.Sure, the DE messed up. But if he had baited rampage and stayed alive through it he should have been rewarded with a fighting chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Yes I love I can dish out alot of damage in berserker mode while rampaging warrior is how he meant to be damage dealer not a class you can just somehow kill quickly with conditions, and magic.
