otto.5684 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 It has some cool ideas. I think the barrier synergy does not fit in well with the rest of the design thematically. Neither does boon steal.Pistol needs work. MH pistol seems kind of week. No blocks, blindness or mobility. Why would I ever use it over sword or even scepter? OH, skill 4 is cool. Skill 5 is OP, but some what lacking synergy. It is a stronger SoJ, but if I am playing a ranged weapon I probably would want to maintain distance. Also, this would be the only weapon without symbol. Symbols are important for guardian.Which takes to the really broken stuff:"Evade all attacks for 1 sec after your aegis blocks an attack.""Passive: gain aegis every 40 sec.Active: evade all attacks for a duration.Casting time: instantCooldown: 20 secDuration: 2 sec""Utility Judgement 4 (Evade all attacks for a duration. Cripple and burn any enemy whose attack you evade within range threshold.Casting time: instantCooldown: 50 secDuration: 2 secCripple: 2 secBurning: 1 stack for 1 secCripple and burning interval: 1 secRange threshold: 300"LOL? I do think non-FB guardian needs better ways to avoid damage, but this is beyond broken. Think about. You start with aegis, so you block the damage then 1 sec evade. Then you cast Judgement, 2 sec evade, then a block then 1 sec evade. Then you use utility, 2 sec evade. This is 6 sec evade, plus 2 blocks all with no casting. But wait for more! I have shield. Shield 4, again block and 1 sec evade. Then renewed focus, 3 sec evade (at least you cannot attack here and no point contribution). The judgement again, 2 sec evade, 1 block and 1 sec evade. Man I can sit on a point against 4 enemies for 12-15 secs, and they cannot touch me. I think the overall design is cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it any different to bunker mesmer, though?Also, if you will focus everything on blocks and evades, then what else would you do? You would sacrifice both damage and healing for avoidance. So, yeah, you could dance around and evade everything, but other than that you would pretty much be a dead weight.Thanks for reading through.

So, yeah, you could dance around and evade everything, but other than that you would pretty much be a dead weight.Thanks for reading through.I want to be clear, I think your idea is cool, but it needs refining.The issue is that the evades here have no sacrifice. What sacrifice is there for VoJ? It is there by default. That is a 3 sec evade on 20 sec CD. If use shield, instead of focus or pistol, that is an extra 1 sec evade. Shield will outdps pistol and only slightly outdpsed by focus in PvP. I can do this with core dps build, using GS / Sword & shield using marauder (obviously would not be called core with the new elite). This setup will give me 20% evade uptime + 2 aegis every 20 sec. If I play it right, I can use LoW with stability source. In the 15 sec down time of LoR I can just start dumping the evades + aegis + dodges. This gives enemies very limited opportunity to be able to attack me. You compared to chrono bunker. Chrono bunker does not have the ability to deal anywhere close to guardian dps type of damage.

RisenHowl.2419 Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 -Traits 6 and 7 are too strong-Elite could use some work, that wouldn't be effective in any game mode-stunbreak on the evade utility-mh pistol is too weak, p2 in particular. Give it a 1/2s backwards evade+crippleOther than that looks great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InsaneQR.7412 Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Honestly I think the "Update the active" approach is already been recicled many times and only gives the same playstyle a different flavor.I would like to see something that emphasizes on the passives.So you for example you activate a virtue for an initial effect and then you gain a powerful passive witch's potency diminishes over time.So you can juggle your passives by "swapping" virtues.I actually made a short E-Spec concept out of this.
